Kang Do-yun spent eight years working at star chef Baek Tae-seok's restaurant. The day even the sauce he developed was credited to the chef, he asked for the record to be set straight—and got fired for it. With nowhere else to go, Do-yun ends up at Hankki, a tiny rice bowl shop whose owner is thinking of closing for good. When he and owner Oh Ha-na put out an 8,000-won chicken thigh rice bowl, the empty restaurant starts filling up. But good food alone doesn't keep a business running. A flood of orders, a razor-thin budget, and Do-yun's habit of trying to do everything himself put the two of them to the test. Then comes the Haeon One Bowl Contest. Face to face with Baek Tae-seok once again, Do-yun sets out to cook not as someone's kitchen assistant, but under his own name. A cooking drama about the thrill of reclaiming stolen credit—and the growth of people who open their doors again every single day.
