Chef Sungchul Shim
Michelin-starred Chef Sungchul Shim is known for creating concepts that bridge Korean tradition with modern technique — from Kochi and Mari, each honored with one Michelin star, to Hwaro, his most ambitious project yet.
Rooted in a lifelong curiosity for flavor and shaped by years in the world’s finest kitchens, Hwaro represents the culmination of everything he has learned — a deeply personal expression of craft, memory, and connection.
Our Team
The team at Hwaro is guided by the belief that true hospitality is an act of heart — a reflection of care, precision, and pride. Rooted in Korean heritage and shaped by the refinement of French technique, we approach every detail with intention — from the way ingredients are handled to the way each guest is received.
Together, we strive to create more than a meal; we create a moment of connection. Every service is a dialogue between warmth and discipline, tradition and innovation — a shared pursuit to offer not only exceptional cuisine, but an experience that feels deeply personal, gracious, and alive with spirit.
