[Edaily Starin KIM HYUNSIK Reporter] JTBC’s new Saturday-Sunday drama “Final Table” premieres on the 24th.

“Final Table” is a drama centered on the spectacular culinary showdowns and remarkable stories of contestants from around the world who have gathered for “The Table: K Chef 2026,” a competition to select Korea’s top chef.
Still photos from the first episode, released ahead of the broadcast, show Chef Kang Han (played by Ahn Hyo-seop) pouring his heart and soul into cooking for just one person.
In the drama, Kang Han appears as a chef who creates his own unique dishes using his exceptional culinary skills and techniques acquired from around the world. The storyline establishes him as a chef who enjoys a stellar reputation, receiving offers from renowned restaurants worldwide every year, yet whose personal life remains shrouded in mystery.

Having wandered abroad for a long time before suddenly returning to Korea to enjoy a life close to nature, Kang Han plans to prepare a meal using creative cooking methods that make use of his surroundings—such as campfires and stone slabs—without being bound by conventional cooking tools or techniques.
The drama’s production team stated, “The story behind why he settled on an outdoor restaurant instead of an overseas one, as well as the identity of the protagonist Kang Han intends to treat to a meal, will be revealed in the first episode.”
“Final Table” stars Ahn Hyo-seop, along with Hong Hwa-yeon, Jang Ryul, Jung Yu-jin, Ji Seung-hyun, Jang Young-nam, Cha Ji-yeon, Tae Hang-ho, and Jang Hyun-sung. The drama premieres tonight at 10:40 p.m. and is also available on Disney+.
