Ahn Hyo-seop seeks revenge against Pyeongyeong Group in new JTBC drama

Ahn Hyo-seop will attempt to restore his father's honor by winning 'The Table K Chef 2016', a competition organized by Pyeongyeong Group following the suspicious death of Chef Choi Seung-hyo.

The story depicts a massive conspiracy surrounding a father's death and the son's subsequent revenge to settle the score. A video containing the main narrative of the JTBC drama 'Final Table' has been released, increasing the tension of the production.

Conspiracy surrounding father's death and the shadow of a conglomerate

Chef Choi Seung-hyo of 'Familia', which has served as a representative star brand in Korea for 39 years, has ended his life through an extreme choice. However, suspicions are being raised regarding his death. Claims have emerged that his death was a staged act carried out because he knew in advance that Familia would fail to receive a plate in the plate evaluations to be announced this year. In this process, circumstances suggest that the conglomerate Pyeongyeong Group was involved in the father's death. Ahn Hyo-seop claims that Pyeongyeong Group manipulated everything to make his father commit suicide, foreshadowing a confrontation with them.

A path to restoring honor through 'The Table K Chef 2016'

Pyeongyeong Group plans to abolish the existing plate system and organize a new competition, 'The Table K Chef 2016', to select the best Korean chef in the world. Team Leader Seon Jae-won proposes a competition where the best cooks are selected by domestic and international top critics and the general public, suggesting that if competition cannot be removed from human society, it should be given a plausible justification. This competition is planned based on the belief that Korean food can become the center of world cuisine. The method of revenge given to Ahn Hyo-seop is to win this competition. His plan is to restore the honor of his father and Familia through victory and to make people listen more closely to his words.

The appearance of Chris K and the reversed fate of the head chef

Chris K appears as a figure who will shake up the competition. Having previously drawn attention by creating a winning recipe as a sous chef rather than a head chef in a past competition, he joins the current competition as the new head chef of Familia. While records are mentioned of a past where the score gap was so large that reporters flocked to Chris K when he was a sous chef, reactions follow expressing surprise at the fact that the sous chef has taken the position of head chef. Familia enters the battlefield once again by putting forward Chris K to enter Chef Cha Woo-jin into the competition. The determined line, "I will definitely win," hints at the fierce competition among chefs that will unfold in the future.
