Synopsis
In the vein of shows like "Gourmet" and "Pasta", "Fermented Family" is a deliciously simmering blend of food and romance. Song Il-gook ("Land of wind") and recently popular star Park Jin-hee ("Giant") lead this family tale of two bickering restaurateurs who fall in love against the backdrop of a beautiful and traditional Korean restaurant. Lee Kang San is a high-maintenance restaurant owner who strives to make her restaurant perfect in every way. Ki Ho Tae is her part-time employee, a hot-tempered character who constantly clashes with Kang San. A rag-tag group of quirky people frequent the restaurant, drawn to its good food and atmosphere, and Ho Tae and Kang San, in their quest to make the restaurant a happy place that feels like family for customers, may find happiness and family in each other.
