"Tell me what you eat, and I'll tell you what you are."

*music plays*
Fukui: "Nearly a decade ago, a man's fantasy became reality in a form never seen before: Kitchen Stadium, a giant cooking arena. The motivation for spending his fortune to create Kitchen Stadium was to encounter new, original cuisines that could be called true, artistic creations."
*cut to Kaga yelling 'Allez Cuisine'*
"To realize his dream, he secretly started choosing the top chefs of various styles of cooking. And he named his chefs the Iron Chefs: The invincible chefs of culinary skills. Iron Chef Japanese Masaharu Morimoto. Iron Chef French is Hiroyuki Sakai. Iron Chef Chinese is Chen Kenichi. And Masahiko Kobe is Iron Chef Italian.
Kitchen Stadium is the arena where Iron Chefs await the challenges from master chefs from around the world. Both the Iron Chef and challenger have one hour to tackle the theme ingredient of the day. Using all their senses, skill, and creativity, they are to prepare artistic dishes never tasted before. Every battle, reputations are on the line in Kitchen Stadium, where master chefs pit their artistic creations against each other. What inspiration does today's challenger bring? And how will the Iron Chef fight back? The heat will be on!"
Kaga: If memory serves me right, a rising young chef from Korea recently came to me in person and asked to do battle in my Kitchen Stadium.
How bold- to seek me out for a personal request for battle! How can I refuse?
Today's challenger, a rising star in Korean cuisine: Jeung Dae.
Jeung came into the field of cooking at age five. Studying under her father, she quickly honed her skills, and her talent was instantly recognized by top chefs around Korea. By age 18, she was training under the best Korean chefs in the world. Her dishes speak of the beauty of nature, and incorporate traditional Korean cuisine with bold, modern techniques. She is known for her artistic skills, as well as her feminine touch. Jeung is opening her own restaurant in the near future, which promises to be a deluxe gourmet experience.
Now, Jeung Dae! Show us why you are such a rising star in the culinary world, and beat one of the Iron Chefs in my Kitchen Stadium!
Jeung Dae: I know I can do it- I'll show you all what modern Korean cuisine is all about.
*Kaga steps into Kitchen Stadium. The camera pans around a large column, showing Kaga stepping up to center stage. The Chairman looks around at the many features and ingredients in Kitchen Stadium, and his eyes land on a yellow bell pepper in front of him. He picks it up, and takes a bite. Suddenly, a large smile spreads across his face, as the camera pulls back, revealing the once-empty Kitchen Stadium now full of Gourmet Academy chefs. Flames burst onto the screen, and in both Japanese and English characters appears the words: Iron Chef. The camera pans once more around the Kitchen Stadium, and the events are now ready to begin*
*Kaga steps out into Kitchen Stadium*
Kaga: Today's challenger is a rising chef in Korean cuisine. She has apprenticed under the best Korean chefs from around the world, and is soon opening her own restaurant to delight our taste buds with her modern style of Korean cuisine.
Now let's bring her on! A rising name in Korean cuisine... Jeung Dae!
*Curtains swing back, and Jeung Dae walks into Kitchen Stadium. She follows the pathway up to centerstage, where Kaga waits for her*
Kaga: Welcome. Why have you come to Kitchen Stadium?
