The Philosophy
The heart of Seo Ji Choga Ddeul beats in the philosophy of its representative, Choi Yeong-Gan. He fondly remembers days of eating Motbap and holds dear the lessons and values passed down from his grandfather and his devoted mother who record their daily lives through writing.
For Choi, the food we consume shapes our disposition. With this belief, he meticulously prepares Motbap and Jilsang, infusing each dish with a depth of emotion and care that reflects his family’s legacy. As he straps on his shoes each day and steps out to gather fresh spring mugwort or pumpkin leaves, his thoughts are centered around how his actions today will imprint on his children.
