If you've been keeping up with cooking show Chef and My Fridge, you would have seen the intense showdown between South Korean chef Choi Hyun-seok - who also starred in Culinary Class Wars - and local chef Han Liguang (also known as Chef LG Han).
Curious to try the dishes they created during the competition? You now can because the chefs will be having an exclusive two-day collaboration on July 13 and 14.
The event will be held at Liguang's Michelin-starred Restaurant Labyrinth and will have a 7pm and 7.30pm seating, shared a post on Restaurant Labyrinth's Instagram on Wednesday (June 11).
Apart from the competition dishes they made on the show, the chefs also have other collaborative creations. These will be paired with makgeolli , a traditional Korean alcoholic beverage.
The event is ticketed and costs $368++ per pax. Bookings are to be made via email at reservations@labyrinth.com.sg
AsiaOne has reached out to Restaurant Labyrinth for more details.
Liguang founded Restaurant Labyrinth in 2014 and his dishes are inspired by his Singapore roots. In 2017, the establishment earned its first Michelin star.
He was the first-ever chef to represent Singapore on Chef and My Fridge.
Hyun-seok is currently the head chef at Choi, a Korean-European fusion restaurant in Seoul.
In 2024, he appeared on competitive cooking show Culinary Class Wars and was one of the final eight contestants.
Prior to Chef and My Fridge and the collaboration, both of them had been friends for almost a decade and the pair met eight years ago in Singapore during a Singapore Tourism Board editorial shoot.
During the show, Liguang had specifically chosen Hyun-seok as his opponent as a testament to their long-standing friendship.

International K-pop fans thrill to prospect of BTS reunion

REUTERS/Kim Hong-Ji BTS fans wait for BTS members Jungkook and Jimin who are set to be discharged from South Korea's mandatory military service, in Yeoncheon, South Korea, June 11, 2025. REUTERS/Kim Hong-Ji SEOUL - Thousands of international fans of K-pop megastars BTS gathered on Friday in the suburbs of Seoul amid mounting excitement over an expected reunion of the group after its members complete mandatory service in the South Korean military. This year's BTS Festa marks the 12th anniversary of the group, which last performed together in 2022 and has not toured since 2019 because of the global pandemic and subsequent military service obligations of its members. It was unclear if any of the recently discharged performers would appear at the festival organised by the group's management agency, HYBE. But that did not dampen the enthusiasm of fans, some of whom flew in from around the world hoping to spot some of the superstars at the gathering or at a pair of solo concerts by BTS rapper J-Hope as he wraps up his "Hope on the Stage" world tour. "I want to enjoy everything because there are many things to do here and ... I hope to see the guys maybe," said Karla Linan Saucede, 33, who travelled from Mexico with her sister and friends. "It's gone past excitement and into almost being numb," said Ayla O'Ryan, 45, from Scotland, adding that she planned a visit this month to practice Korean in the capital so that she could attend. BTS' members Jimin and Jungkook discharged from the South Korean military on Wednesday, become the fifth and sixth to complete their service. Members RM and V were discharged on Tuesday and the last to finish will be Suga on June 21. While details of a reunion have not been released, the group is expected to hold its largest ever world tour in 2026, says NH Securities, one of South Korea's largest investment firms. Shares in HYBE jumped 11.3% in June as brokerages raised their sales estimates and target price for the agency ahead of the group's comeback.

Kim Soo-hyun's luxury apartment seized over unpaid advertiser's penalty fee amid Kim Sae-ron scandal , Entertainment News

One of Kim Soo-hyun's luxury apartments worth three billion won (S$2.8 million) has been seized. According to South Korean reports, the medical aesthetic device brand Classys, which previously signed Soo-hyun as their brand model, filed for the provisional seizure over an unpaid penalty fee due to a breach of contract, which the Seoul Eastern District Court approved recently. The company had ended their contract with the 37-year-old after his explosive scandal where he was accused of dating the late actress Kim Sae-ron when she was underaged. She died from suicide in February this year. Soo-hyun has denied the allegations, claiming they started seeing each other when she was 19 years old. He owns three Galleria Foret apartments, which he bought in 2013 and 2014. His lawyers reportedly confirmed one of his units had been seized. His drama Knock-Off - which was supposed to premiere in the first half of 2025 - has also been postponed indefinitely.
