Summary
"Comic of pork, by pork, and for pork!"
What does this even mean? In simple terms, it means this comic is all about pork! An unprecedented, oneof-a-kind comic where pork is the main character!
There is a community meeting in this one apartment in Seoul. The rule for the meeting is simple: the house
hosting the meeting must prepare dinner. At the end of the year, the best dinner is selected, and a prize
is awarded. In apartment 704, a family of three - a mother, a father, and their seven-year-old daughter - is
preparing a secret recipe to win the coveted prize.
You might think the story is about neighbors bonding, but people are merely supporting characters,
and the real star is pork. Pork is not only delicious but is also full of nutrition and said to boost immunity!
Surprised to see pork as the main character?
Pork is in every dish from gamjatang(pork back-bone stew), sweet and sour pork, and tonkatsu(breaded
pork cutlet) to kimchi stew with pork ribs, hot dogs, and jeyuk-bokkeum(spicy stir-fried pork)! It can be
grilled, steamed, stir-fried, or boiled. How is it that every single pork dish has a heavenly taste?
As you enjoy Cho's mouth-watering illustrations and heartwarming stories of people and pork in his
comics Pork Dong Dong, you might want to cook some pork dish for dinner tonight!
