About Damn Delicious®
Damn Delicious® was simply a hobby, but now it’s my full-time job.
Coming from a very traditional Korean household, I was destined to be one of three things: a lawyer, a dentist or a doctor. So as a grad school hobby, I created a Tumblr account in April 2011 to document some of my favorite recipes. I had one reader, making less than $0.30 per month.
But 14 years later, Damn Delicious® has grown into something that I never thought possible. I have connected with readers all over the world, conquered so many culinary feats in my kitchen, and collaborated with brands that I always dreamed to work with.
Damn Delicious has even grown into an amazing team of individuals working together to create the best possible recipes. We create recipes, step-by-step tutorials, and videos that focus on quick and easy meals for the everyday home cook to show you that it really doesn’t take much to make a homemade meal completely from scratch.

Hi Chungah,
I just found you! I’m so happy because during our “Groundhog Days” I have started cooking and baking again (sorry all our wonderful Phoenix restaurants). I lived in Southern California and had the amazing opportunity to take cooking classes with so many great and well known chefs including Julia Child, Nancy Silverton, Alice Waters, Sheila Lukins and Jacques Pepin. And now your recipes have inspired me again.
Your blogging is so well written that I feel like we are texting personally and your personality comes through and brings smiles. Your recipes are going to make my days have a purpose again and bring my creativity back.
I read your “About” page and my heart went out to you. Are you and Ben going to have a wedding this month? So much planning for so many has resulted in disappointments but I know you will make your wedding situation have a happy ending. Best wishes for a happy and healthy life together.
Thank you for adding so much joy to our lives, especially now. Stay well. Stay safe. And love your fur babies.
Best always,
Sharon Constant
I was online looking for a recipe for Frozen Peach Bellini and I am so glad I found you. So many great recipes and such inspiring and wonderful life stories. Thank you!
Congrats on your upcoming wedding!
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! Hope all goes well amid Covid! Love Butters and Cartman – sooo cute!! Also love your website and all the recipes…have tried several and gotten rave reviews from my hubby. I’m not crazy about cooking but, with Covid, have been forced to cook more often than I ever have and your easy recipes have revived my interest in turning out delicious meals. Keep them coming!
Hello!, I’m so glad I found you! I just made your vegetable pot stickers and the definitely were “Damn Delicious”! Even better than the ones we get at our favorite place. I will be making these again and again
Thank you, Thank you!

My first time on your site and YOU ARE SO ADORBALE! I can’t wait to try your “Damn Delicious” recipes! Everything looks absolutely scrumptious. Congratulations on your upcoming marriage. I pray for blessings and love for your family.
I just found you today while doing some research for my own floundering page: malechealthfitness.com and facebook @MHF4U . I am in awe at the value, flow and integrations you have. I am gonna be studying your page and processes more to hopefully become better at this craft. Thank you!
Oh Congrats! You are a fabulous family. This is my first time to site and I would like to thank you for a successful dinner tonight. 100% thumbs up & compliments. Look forward to seeing your pics from the happy day coming up! Love those scarfs. Have a lovely and memorable wedding day!
Butters and Cartman are adorable and your recipes are fantastic! I see that you and Ben are due to be married on 6/20/2020 and, well, just want to wish you the very best! It’s been quite a crazy few months and perhaps you’ve had to modify your plans…or maybe not. Anyway, I just simply wanted to wish you the best and, hey, while I’m here, thank you for sharing so many amazing recipes. One of our favorites is the sesame ginger salmon. I am making it tonight and need to get that salmon in the marinade, so I’ll sign off here. Best wishes! Laura
Hi! I have loved your recipes / site for about a year now. While on our last Zoom meeting (“new normal” work meeting), my colleague and I discovered we both are fans! We sent the link to our third colleague, and then talked about recipes for the last half hour of our meeting 😉
Just wanted to let you know in case your ears were burning.
Best,
Ellen
I absolutely LOVE this website – make your recipes ALL the time. Your chili and chicken chili and Asian recipes are amazing. I I have a 20 year old and 8 year old – picky eaters – and they always love your food! I just conquered stage 4 cancer and love how healthy your food is! Best wishes on your wedding – I am so sorry COVId may have put a dent in plans.
all the best,
