Why Yun.

Yun Ko grew up in Incheon, helping her mother cook banquets for traditional Korean ceremonies. In London she trained her craft in high-end events, then spent years developing food for UK supermarkets, including bringing the first sweet potato katsu to Sainsbury's ready meals. Today she brings it all home to Understory House, where she makes SSUG's fermented foods and cooks for guests.

Past events include a 300-guest wedding at the Wallace Collection, a 250-guest European product launch for Erborian and the opening of Jérôme Dreyfuss's London shop, alongside many private weddings and celebrations across London.

“It was a flawless event in every way – perfect food, perfect decoration, perfect entertainment, perfect service.”
