Jeulyoil is a project planned by Sempio to help children emotionally recover from the fatigue caused by COVID-19 and to promote the formation of healthy lifestyle habits. It uses Saemine Kitchen products that minimize the use of knives and fire, allowing even children who are inexperienced in cooking to actively participate in the entire cooking process, while significantly reducing complicated cooking steps and cooking time.


On the 21st, about 100 students and their families participated in Jeulyoil online via Zoom together with Seokseong Elementary School in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province. One family represented the group and cooked with a Sempio flavor researcher at the Sempio Our Flavor Space. The menu for the day included fresh kimchi (geotjeori), stir-fried anchovies, and steamed egg rice.


The families who participated in the class personally experienced and enjoyed the fact that anyone can cook easily and deliciously, and that they could spend happy time while cooking. Cheon Byeong-hee, principal of Seokseong Elementary School in Yongin, said, "Many teachers in the educational field are making various efforts to help strengthen children's social and emotional competencies," and added, "We will actively support and promote Sempio's joyful program."



Sempio plans to pilot the cooking class program with 10 elementary schools in the second half of this year and gradually increase the number of affiliated schools from 2024. A Sempio official stated, "A joyful cooking experience is the easiest way to form healthy lifestyle habits and achieve happiness," and added, "We will continue diverse activities to promote the numerous advantages and precious values of cooking."
