Director Christopher Nolan, who visited Korea to promote the film 'Odyssey', was completely captivated by the Korean flavors presented by chef Son Jong-won.

To mark the official visit of the film 'Odyssey' to Korea, director Christopher Nolan, producer Emma Thomas, actors Matt Damon, and Charlize Theron visited 'Ethnic Garden', a restaurant led by chef Son Jong-won, who has gained widespread popularity for appearing on Netflix's variety show 'Black & White Chef: Cooking Class War Season 2' and JTBC's 'Please Take Care of My Refrigerator since 2014'. The group enjoyed a special banquet at the restaurant.

It is reported that Team 'Odyssey' experienced authentic Korean flavors by tasting a diverse array of seasonal course dishes prepared with fresh ingredients at Ethnic Garden, which interprets Korean food culture in an original way. In particular, after the meal, director Christopher Nolan expressed his high satisfaction by stating, "It was the best meal." Additionally, to commemorate director Christopher Nolan's birthday during the banquet, a specially crafted dessert inspired by the iconic symbol of the film, the 'Trojan Horse', was served, creating unforgettable memories. Alongside this, heartwarming photos featuring chef Son Jong-won and Team 'Odyssey' together were also released, adding to the warmth of the occasion.

Having officially visited Korea on the 1st, Team 'Odyssey' enjoyed not only a professional baseball game but also Korean cuisine, actively engaging with Korean culture through these "close moments," which have drawn intense interest from domestic fans. Furthermore, they are expected to meet directly with local fans during the red carpet event scheduled for tomorrow (the 4th), further heightening anticipation.

Meanwhile, 'Odyssey' will be available in theaters nationwide on August 5.
