The Table: K-Chef 2026 sets out to crown the best Korean chef alive. Kang Han, a world-class talent who works behind the name "Chris K."; Choi Song-yi, fighting to keep her late father's restaurant standing; Cha Woo-jin, a star chef who accepts nothing short of perfection; and a field of chefs who each carry a story of their own. They push one another to the edge, plate after plate - and somewhere between the rounds, the rivalry turns into something closer to care. A warm survival drama about people who come to win, and end up mending each other's wounds instead.
