Hello!
I'm SANG LEE

 

When I miss Korea the most, food has always been my greatest comfort.

Recreating the flavors of my mother’s kitchen has brought strength and healing in ways I never expected.

And as I settled into my new home in the U.S., the joy of discovering comforting meals that fit into my busy life became another kind of gift.

 

By blending the warmth of Korean home cooking with the ease of everyday recipes anyone can make—even in the midst of a hectic schedule—I began to find a new rhythm. A way to hold onto tradition while embracing the present.

 

Through Instagram, I discovered I wasn’t alone.

Many others missed the taste of home, struggled to pass down treasured recipes, or simply longed to connect over something familiar.

That realization lit a fire in me. If my journey could offer even a little comfort or inspiration to someone else, I wanted to share it.

 

This space is for those who miss the taste of home.

For those who want to discover the deep, bold flavors of Korean cuisine.

And for anyone searching for warmth and connection through food—wherever you’re from.

 

I hope this becomes a gentle resting place, not only for others but also for my daughters.

One day, when they return to this space, may they find the taste of their mother’s cooking,

and the memories we’ve shared—preserved in every recipe and every story.

 

 

건강한 집밥의 기반으로 이뤄진 건강하고 행복한 가정. 그 가정을 통해 얻어지는 인생의 기쁨. 결국 건강함이 행복의 기반이다.A healthy and happy home built on the foundation of home-cooked meals brings the joys of life. Ultimately, a wholesome environment is the essence of happiness.

A Legacy Beyond Words

 

Each day, I quietly build an invisible legacy for my children.

Not one made of wealth or possessions,

but one shaped by the everyday choices I make,

and the life I live in full.

 

Our daily steps become our life.

And that life, just as it is,

becomes the legacy we leave behind.

 

I want to show them that impossible dreams can come true.

That even in the fiercest storms, it’s possible to

stand strong.

That in moments of sorrow, choosing gratitude

can change the course of a life.

 

This is real life.

Not words alone,

but a life poured out—lived with intention and hope—

for our children to witness and remember.

 

That is legacy.

That is everyday life.
