Celebrate the flavors of hallyu with more than 65 mukbang-worthy recipes inspired by Korean dramas, movies, and music.

The Korean Wave, or hallyu, has seen the K-food craze spread globally, spurred by the popularity of cultural exports like K-pop and K-dramas. From dalgona coffee to cheese-filled corndogs, Korean trends are taking over, both on-screen and in the kitchen. Seeing these delicious creations stirs a craving in fans—not just to taste the food, but to relive the moment bite by bite in their own kitchens.

In Mukja: Let’s Eat!, Chef Judy Joo invites readers to whip up scene-stealing Korean dishes, offering more than 65 recipes for small plates, soups, mains, snacks, desserts, drinks, and more: everything from K-Pop Demon Hunters–inspired ramyeon to kimbap, the comfort food featured in Extraordinary Attorney Woo to BTS-inspired Honey “Butter” Chips! Complete with vibrant full-color illustrations and a foreword from the popular K-Drama actor and K-food ambassador Ryu Soo-young, this must-have recipe collection brings a whole new mouthwatering dimension to hallyu that will delight fans and non-fans alike.
