In fact, unlike other chefs, Edward Lee competed in quite a disadvantage. Since I had no choice but to stay in my hotel room after flying for more than 10 hours, it was not an environment where I could practice differently from other participants with homes or restaurants in Korea. Edward Lee told an American podcast that he could not cook in a hotel, so he could only buy a few simple ones and practice by running simulations" he once confided.

In addition, Edward Lee reportedly established the principle of 'Black and White Cook'I will never cook what I've done in my cooking life and try new things' As a result, his main event, meat dishes, was barely touched throughout the competition.



Edward Lee was born in Brooklyn, New York, to Korean parents, graduated from New York University's Department of English Literature, and started cooking at a restaurant only at the age of 22. When restaurant regulars tragically lost their lives due to the 9/11 attacks, they were shocked and had been wandering in Europe and the United States before stopping in Louisville, Kentucky, and working at a restaurant called '610 Magnolia' to take over at the owner's suggestion.

He made his name by winning the Food Network's `Iron Chef America' in 2010 and has been nominated several times for the James Beard Award, dubbed the `Cafeteria Award' for the restaurant industry. In April last year, he was invited to a state dinner between the U.S. and South Korea held by the White House and made food.



Edward Lee, who made me feel emotional with cooking, showed the dignity of the chef.
