Everything You Need To Know About This New Food Survival Show
A Survival Show Centered Around Bakers

A survival show is always fun to watch. We’ve seen it all, from K-Pop survival shows where hundreds of trainees compete to debut, to intense cooking competitions where chefs go head to head, and even physical survival shows that test pure strength and endurance. Now, “Bake Your Dream” is bringing something fresh to the table, literally, as it puts the spotlight on bakers from all over the world. With the global rise of K-Food, it feels like the perfect timing to introduce a survival show that celebrates baking, creativity, and passion all in one place!
Hundreds of Bakers Around The World Will Compete
Since the show’s main concept is to find the world’s strongest baker, a total of 100 bakers were invited to participate, ranging from master artisans representing different regions of Korea to world class pâtissiers and even underground bakers known for their inventive recipes. What makes this even more exciting is the diversity of participants, as professional bakers from different countries will also be joining the competition, alongside celebrity hobby bakers who have a genuine love for baking. This mix guarantees a wide variety of styles, flavors, and techniques, making every episode something to look forward to.
In line with the global K-Bakery craze that followed the success of K-Food, “Bake Your Dream” aims to continuously introduce flavors and concepts that viewers have never experienced before. This is not just about baking delicious bread and desserts, but also about pleasing both the eyes and the taste buds. Each challenge is expected to showcase pastries that reflect the culture, creativity, and personal stories of the bakers themselves.
Opening More Opportunities To The Baking Industry
Aside from being an exciting survival show, “Bake Your Dream” also carries a heartfelt purpose. The show provides a rare opportunity for small business bakers and rising pastry chefs who dream of growing their craft on a bigger stage. For many participants, this competition is not just about winning, but about turning their passion into a real business and gaining exposure that could change their lives. Since it will be televised and is receiving support from K Bakery Global Co., the show is expected to help elevate the global bakery industry while also raising the status of K-Bakery to the next level.
Ofcourse, everyone would want to win this survival show because aside from the prestige, the final winner will not only receive the opportunity to launch a new product with a bakery company, but will also earn the special privilege of becoming the owner of their own signature bakery. Also, the best part about this show is it offers continuous and practical support, including potential spin offs, follow up programs, and opportunities for business expansion and overseas entry.
Hosted By Lee Da Hee and Amazing Judge Lineup
It will be hosted by Lee Da Hee, who is already known for her charm and professionalism as an MC on various reality programs and major award shows. Her presence adds warmth and energy to the show, making it easier for everyone to connect with both the contestants and the competition itself. The production team also shared that this program will offer something viewers have never seen before, promising a fresh experience that satisfies both the eyes and the appetite.
Adding even more excitement is the powerhouse lineup of judges. The 100 participants will be evaluated by living legends of the baking world, including Michelin starred chefs, a leader in the dessert industry, a star pâtissier who has won the Blue Ribbon Survey seven times, and even the oldest representative of a local bakery in Korea. Each judge will assess the bakers based on their own standards and expertise, ensuring a fair yet intense competition to discover the one baker who can truly captivate taste buds around the world!
Other K-Variety Shows To Watch On KOCOWA+
“Idol Star Athletics Championship”

If you’re in the mood for something fun, chaotic, and full of iconic moments, then ISAC is perfect for you! This long running K Variety show brings idols together to compete in different sports, from track and field to archery, and even e-sports in recent years. What makes ISAC so enjoyable is seeing idols step away from the stage and show their competitive sides, teamwork, and unexpected athletic skills. It’s the kind of show that gives fans legendary reactions, viral moments, and interactions you won’t see anywhere else.

For viewers who love food shows with a relaxed and comforting vibe, “Mr. Eo’s Food World Tour” is a great pick. The show follows the host as he travels to different places, tasting local dishes and sharing stories behind the food, making it feel less like a competition and more like a warm journey. Through this show, we witness the culture behind every dish being served!
