SYNOPSIS
When an economic downturn leaves five wildly different housemates struggling to make ends meet, they turn their chaotic apartment into an unlikely food business. What begins as a desperate side hustle selling homemade meals soon becomes a viral sensation, fueled by clashing cultures, family recipes, culinary experiments, and social media.
As their tiny operation grows, the five friends must navigate money, ambition, family expectations, relationships, and their very different ideas of success. By the end of the season, their apartment kitchen has evolved into a battered secondhand food truck—and one promising dish that just might define them: Kimchi Taco.
