"Mongle Mongle Forest Chef" tells the story of Seoa, a child who loves cooking, and her pet dog Tori, who prepare a warm meal using autumn ingredients for a family of cats suffering from colds. Inspired by the author's own experience caring for a sick cat with her daughter, the book warmly depicts, from a child's perspective, the joy of making food for someone else.

The book includes simple and healthy recipes, such as savory chestnut soup and crispy cheese snacks, that children and parents can make together. Along with the fun of cooking, children can naturally learn the values of consideration and sharing. The first edition comes with a special bonus: a "Mongle Mongle Forest Chef" coloring activity sheet, allowing children to enjoy the atmosphere of the book by coloring it themselves.

Woongjin Thinkbig stated, "We plan to continue introducing seasonal picture books centered on cooking so that children can nurture warm sensibilities through cooking and stories in their daily lives." The company also added, "All royalties from author Lee Junghyun will be donated to Severance Children's Hospital."
