Hello everybody!
Recently CJ Foods contacted me and offered to send me some Korean ingredients as a way of saying “thank you” for spreading Korean culture and cuisine. It was very kind of them to offer, but after talking to them some more, we decided it would be more fun to set up this giveaway for my readers. This is CJ’s way of encouraging you to cook Korean food, because they know that not everyone can find Korean ingredients easily.
So, leave a comment on this post, and you’ll be entered to win a Korean cooking startup kit from CJ.
Please leave only one comment below, and then there will be 20 winners chosen at random by random.org. This contest is open to anyone in the world. Wherever you live, if you win then CJ will deliver this startup kit to your house.
The contest will close at midnight (New York time), December 15th and I’ll contact the winners through email. The winners need to answer me in 5 days, and if anyone doesn’t answer in time I’ll have to pick the next winner. So please, when you register for my website to leave a comment, make sure you use a current email! And be sure to check your email around that time!
The other cool thing about this startup kit is that a lot of the products in it are from CJ’s new Bibigo brand, which you’ll soon be able to buy outside of Korean grocery stores in the USA. I asked CJ about this, and they said Bibigo is just a new brand name for their Haechandle brand, which I have been using for decades and you may have seen in my ingredients section.
So, good luck to you! I hope you win!
Update Dec 23, 2011 – The contest is now closed, and the winners have been announced. Thank you for entering!

I am a huge fan of Korean food and have only just started learning how to cook it. I love your recipes Maangchi, but where I live it is difficult to find the staple ingredients..this would kick start an amazing culinary experience!
Hi there Maangchi! I just love you & your website! Thanks to you I have introduced the wonderful world of korean food to my family & I have made almost every new recipe you’ve posted since August 2010! Keep up the great videos!!
HI MAANGCHI!!!
I love to cookl I always watch korean drama’s and want to learn how to cook it. When they eat in the movies, it makes my mouth water!! My husband think’s im crazy for always watching korean drama’s and your youtube channel but I think you are an AWESOME COOK!!!
My goal is to eventually learn how to make kimchi and the soups I have seen so far! Korean Culture is a little different from my culture but in a lot of ways, our cooking is very similar!
I would love to get a kit so I can learn to cook korean meals for my growing family!
Thank You for taking the time to read this!

I think videos and contests and just events like these are amazing. I love to see everyone come to come together and spread culture. I think food can really be the binding piece of everyone in the world. Keep up the great work! I can’t wait until the day I can actually make one of your dishes.
I have been trying out your recipes for about a year now, everything I try turns out great!! I love cooking and am glad you have such easy to follow recipes that even a tired med student like myself can follow!! <3 Thank you for the contest!!!!

Hi Maangchi
I love your cooking style, tonight I made steamed buns for the second night in a row. My family loves them. I have to bake the buns for one member of my family in the oven because he says steaming them is a weird consistency for him. The baked ones come out good also. Everyone is so happy! Thank you a million times! P.S. I would be happy to win the basket…but I think everyone in my family would be even happier! : )
I love Korean Food <3
