'The Cho' is priceless and provided for free, Just for the ‘Once’ : the experiencer cannot have a second chance.

+ According to Korean culture, it is customary to add vinegar to Naeng Myeon at restaurant, which is more natural than adding salt and pepper at a Western restaurant.

+ For the Opus 3, 'The Cho' is specially customized for the Tasting-Art dish, and is produced in a limited amount solely for the Tasting-Art exhibition purpose: 'The Cho' is not a selling-product. Thus, it is impossible to purchase them for a more use.

'(Pyeong Yang) Naeng Myeon' is a classic Pyeong-yang style (Northern Korea) cold buckwheat noodle in cold consommé soup, which can be regarded as a quintessence of authentic Korean cultural cuisine in a single dish.

● Why Pyeong Yang Naeng Myeon? Because its flavor is simply the best when it is combined with 'The Cho' : This dish was chosen among many candidates which the artist had experimented with for years, because it was simply the best that the artist ever had, especially when combined with ‘The Cho’.

The combination of 'The Cho' and Naeng Myeon transforms its taste into unconventional level.

The determination to sincerely treat a guest with the 'best I've got', shares the Tao spirit from Japanese tea ceremony Zen (다도의 선).
