What The Recipe Is About
A man awaiting execution asks to eat doenjang jjigae one more time before he dies. The television producer Choi Yu-jin hears of it and starts researching the story for a programme, and the recipe he is chasing leads him to a woman called Jang Hye-jin whose cooking makes people cry. The further he goes, the more the story behind the recipe opens out into an account of a love and a loss. The film uses food to talk about memory, about why one taste refuses to resemble anything else. Lee Yo-won and Ryu Seung-ryong star. The telling moves from mystery into melodrama and then into something closer to fantasy, and it changes register without apology.
