As befits his free-spirited personality, he signs contracts with different restaurants each year rather than staying in one place. Thanks to this, he has his own unique style that encompasses culinary methods from various countries, not limited to one nation.On the other hand, Cha Woo-jin, played by Jang Ryul, has taken the opposite path. He is the head chef of 'Excepcion,' the best restaurant in Korea, having trained at a prestigious culinary school. He is a perfectionist who does not allow even the slightest mistake and has honed his skills through rigorous practice. Like his personality, his cooking is spectacular yet precise and strictly formal.Although the two have little in common, from their upbringing to their personalities and the cuisine they pursue, they share one commonality: their sincerity in cooking. They would go to the ends of the earth to obtain better ingredients, and they do not overlook even minor details, from the plating angle to the doneness of the food. The pride match between the two chefs, who have completed their own unique dishes in different ways, is highly anticipated.Above all, this is not the first time Kang Han and Cha Woo-jin have competed. The two previously clashed at a cooking competition held overseas. At that time, Kang Han took first place and Cha Woo-jin took second, making the results of their rematch in 'The Table: K Chef 2026' highly anticipated.'Final Table,' consisting of a total of 12 episodes, will premiere on October 24th at 10:40 PM.[Entertainment Department | ssent@tf.co.kr]subin7134@tf.co.kr
