Two Food Lovers Meet In Search Of A Recipe In ‘Tastefully Yours'
The characters played by Kang Ha-neul and Go Min-si have very different takes on fine dining. Viewers of the k-drama Tastefully Yours may not initially like the character Han Beom-woo. He's kind of obnoxious. He's inconsiderate and pretentious, all qualities he comes by naturally. It's the way he was raised. His family runs a food empire and they are so competitive, he's encouraged to compete with his own brother. Beom-soo, played by Kang Ha-neul, works for the family business, but his real obsession is with his restaurant Motto. His brother (Bae Na-ra) also has a restaurant and whichever brother first earns three gold stars for his own restaurant will be chosen to run the family corporation. Both brothers are working hard to make that happen. But Beom-woo can't do it alone. Complicating his efforts is Motto's celebrity chef, Jang Young-hye, played by Hong Hwa-yeon (Buried Hearts, True to Love, Mental Coach Jegal). Young-hye is not as invested in the restaurant's ranking as Beom-woo so she's more casual about deadlines, which concerns him. There's a dish he wants to put on the menu that he's waiting for her to make. When someone posts a photo of a similar looking dish online, he goes all the way to Jeonju to see the dish for himself. Beom-woo is about to get the recipe for transforming his life. Go Min-si's character runs a restaurant in Jeonju that Kang Ha-neul's character wants to buy. The photo-posting restaurant turns out to be pretty obscure. It's not just hard to find, it seems to be a failure, at least in terms of making enough money to pay the rent. The homey restaurant is run by Mo Yeon-joo, played by Go Min-si (Sweet Home, Love Alarm and Youth of May) . Yeon-joo loves to cook for the sake of cooking, rather than for any restaurant ranking. After tasting her farm-to-table fare, Beom-soo is impressed. He offers to acquire her restaurant for his family's company, but Yeon-joo is not selling. Still, there is something about the flavor of her food that appeals to Beom-woo's senses. While these characters have different takes on fine dining, he's quick to recognize that she's a gifted chef. His plan for Motto's success may not work without the right chef to help create gold star worthy recipes. Yeon-joo may be just the right chef. Kang Ha-neul also appears in three films this year, Yadang: The Snitch, Streaming and Wall to Wall. The actor starred in the dramas Squid Game 2, Curtain Call, The Kidnapping Day and When The Camellia Blooms. Tastefully Yours is directed by Park Dan-hee, who directed Weak Hero Class 1. The drama airs on Netflix.

Lotteria back on grill: Burger chain hits W1tr in comeback
Lotteria, once overshadowed by doubts over taste and image, breaches 1 trillion won sales mark in 7 years Burger chain Lotteria, under Lotte Group's food franchise arm Lotte GRS, is making a bold comeback, burning away its stale reputation with a flavorful rebranding makeover. Industry insiders predict that Lotte GRS will break through the 1 trillion won ($694 million) sales barrier for the first time after a 7-year stagnation. Lotteria is leading the charge, contributing over 70 percent of the company's total revenue. This sales milestone would place the burger chain back on the 1 trillion won ($7.5 billion) track, a streak it maintained from 2013 to 2017. The food group has come a long way, having faced major challenges starting in 2018. Its sales declined from over 1 trillion won in 2017 to 830.9 billion won in 2018, further plummeting to 675.7 billion won in 2021 during the pandemic. The company returned to profitability in 2022, achieving operating profits of 1.7 billion won on revenues of 781.5 billion won. By the third quarter of last year, Lotte GRS reported a 7 percent on-year revenue increase to 744 billion won, with operating profits soaring 109.3 percent to 36 billion won. Lotteria's turnaround after years of struggles highlights its resilience amid fierce competition from McDonald's, Burger King and local rival Mom's Touch. In 2023, McDonald's posted the highest annual sales in the Korean burger franchise market, with over 1.29 trillion won, followed by Lotte GRS at 924 billion won and Burger King at 745 billion won. New taste sensations Lotteria's revival stems from strategic rebranding, focusing on innovative burgers and a modernized brand identity under the "Taste the Fun" slogan. They also renamed their classic burgers and updated the logo to reflect a more contemporary image. Its new burger offerings, such as the Jeonju bibimbap rice burger and the king pork cutlet burger, captured evolving consumer tastes, particularly among younger generations. The bibimbap burger sold 800,000 units in its first month, while the king pork cutlet burger hit 550,000 units in two weeks. These items contributed to a 10 percent sales increase on-year and a 5 percent rise in consumer count in the first quarter of last year. The squid alive burger also generated significant attention, with its sell-out rate surpassing the monthly sales target within a week, achieving over 700,000 units sold within 11 days of its launch. The recent talk of the burger scene is the Napoli Mafia Mozzarella Burger, which sparked a sold-out frenzy following its launch on Jan. 16. Developed in collaboration with star chef Kwon Seong-jun from Netflix's "Culinary Class Wars," the burger has boosted the chain's sales by 33 percent on-year to 30 billion won within the first week of its release, with around 450,000 units sold. 'Lotteria is steadily cementing its identity as a forward-thinking brand,' an industry official said, adding that its creation of distinct K-style burgers has set it apart from its American counterparts. Store refurbishments Along with its success in menu launches, Lotteria has also committed to revamping its outdated image through store renewal. As part of its relocation strategy, Lotteria closed underperforming stores while focusing on new openings, with well-performing outlets undergoing renovations. In December last year, Lotteria opened eight newly renovated company-owned stores, which sparked an uptick in both sales and consumer count, according to a company official. "We plan to enhance the customer experience through store renewals and ensure profitable store management with our renovation efforts," the official said. The firm also aims to expand its store count to 1,400, up from its current count of around 1,300 stores. As of now, Mom's Touch leads in store count with approximately 1,400 outlets nationwide. The franchise has also started leveraging technology-driven solutions to optimize efficiency and spur profitability, as demonstrated by the automated patty-cooking and frying robots at its renovated Guro Digital Complex station and Seoul National University station outlets. Beyond its stronghold in Korea, Lotte GRS is expanding its reach into international markets, building on its existing presence in Vietnam, Myanmar, Cambodia, Kazakhstan, Laos and Mongolia. It established its US-based corporate entities Lotte GRS USA in 2023 and Lotteria USA in 2024, planning to open its first US store this year. The company is also set to launch its first Lotteria store in Singapore during the second quarter of this year, further advancing its expansion across Southeast Asia.
