@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageNew York City, get ready! 

The KOOM Festival is coming this October and it’s going to be the ultimate celebration of Korean culture, innovation, and of course…K-food & K-pop! 🇰🇷🎶🥢

From powerhouse speakers (think founders of Noom, Glow Recipe, even Baby Shark!) → to live performances by Epik High, Zion.T, and more! 

This 3-day event is packed with inspiration, creativity, and joy.

As someone who has dedicated my career to sharing Korean food & culture with the world, it’s so exciting to see such a vibrant festival take shape right here in New York.

📆 October 16–18, 2025
📍 Duggal Greenhouse, NYC

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageWhat an honor to sit down with the incredible @jujuchangabc — Emmy®️ Award-winning co-anchor of ABC’s Nightline — for a very special evening at @thekoreasociety 

From career pivots and identity → to the rise of Korean food worldwide → to lessons learned as a female chef in male-dominated spaces, we shared stories about chasing passion, overcoming challenges, and finding joy through food. 

It’s always surreal to look back at my journey — from engineering classrooms to Wall Street to kitchens around the world. Moments like this remind me how grateful I am to have followed my passion and to now be able to share Korean food and culture with others.

Grateful to everyone who joined (and braved the gridlock UN traffic!), asked thoughtful questions, and made the night so memorable. And thank you to The Korea Society for being such wonderful hosts. 💛

📚 My latest cookbook K-Quick is all about Korean food in 30 minutes or less — link in bio to explore the full collection!

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageWelcome back to my K-Viral Kitchen — where comforting Korean classics get the @judyjoochef remix. 🍚🧈🥢

Jangjorim Butter Bap is the definition of a hug in a bowl.

Silky soy-braised beef, buttery scrambled eggs, umami-soaked rice, and a blanket of grated butter curls. Cozy, nostalgic, and surprisingly luxe.

🥩 Shredded jangjorim (soy-braised beef) and it’s oh-so-good braising liquid
 🍳 Soft scrambled eggs
 🍚 Steamed short-grain rice
 🧈 Cold microplaned butter — it melts into every bite

 ✨ Finished with scallions, sesame seeds, and seaweed

This one’s pure soul food — salty, sweet, and made to be eaten curled up on the couch.

📍 Ingredients via @koreafoodsuk 
💄 Glam by @jonesroadbeauty & @justbobbidotcom
