Synopsis
Modern chef time-travels to Song Dynasty China, using jjajangmyeon to conquer martial world without fighting skills.
With a dream to become the ultimate Chinese cuisine chef, our protagonist finds himself inexplicably transported to the Song Dynasty in China! However, upon awakening, he discovers that he possesses no martial arts skills whatsoever. All that remains are the culinary techniques he mastered in his previous life. Surprisingly, these dishes... receive an overwhelmingly positive response! Can he, with a single bowl of jjajangmyeon, truly conquer the martial world? Will he be able to captivate the Central Plains with his jjajangmyeon and lead a successful second life in this era? (Source: Naver, translated)
