Synopsis:
Min Do-yeon, a fourth-year chef at a famous hotel in Seoul, is heading to work as usual when she suddenly gets transported into the world of a novel.
Not only that—she finds herself in the body of an unfortunate extra destined to be poisoned to death: the Duchess Vivian.
The cause of death? Food.
Determined to survive, she decides to prepare and eat all her meals herself.
“Entered the kitchen? Must you behave so vulgarly?”
The cold Northern Duke Leon constantly disregards her.
Meanwhile, Vivian discovers that the novel’s world and the refrigerator in her Seoul hotel are connected, allowing her unlimited access to ingredients.
Shaking off the shock of her transmigration, she resolves to showcase her skills.
“Today, I’ll show you a new dish. You can look forward to it.”
The once cold Northern mansion begins to fill with the enticing aroma of food. And then…
“Why… does it taste so good?”
The dishes she prepares awaken Duke Leon’s sense of taste, which had been dead for over a decade.
“…It’s only yours.”
“……?”
“The only food I can taste is the one made by your hands.”
Leon is possessive—but his obsession is strangely misplaced.
You should be obsessed with the woman, not the food!
“ I want to eat it right now.”
“Huh?”
Vivian’s trembling lips parted slightly, and Leon struggled to speak:
“…Ramen.”
Upon hearing this, a triumphant smile spread across Vivian’s face.
As expected, the spicy, rich flavors of Korean ramen completely captivated Duke Ester, who had long dominated the barren North and rarely showed any emotion.
“I’ll cook it right away. Change your clothes and come to the dining hall.”
Does she realize that Duke Ester, who has always regarded eating as a mere formality, is about to lose his mind from wanting the food she made?
Even the thought of it brings a smile to her lips.
“It was an incredibly satisfying night. I’ve never had such an ecstatic night in my life.”
“…….”
“I can’t forget it—the warmth that filled my stomach, the soft texture that touched my tongue.”
“…….”
“What will you make next? I can handle anything.”
“…Could you use subjects in your sentences? Someone might misunderstand if they heard that.”
