This image captures a close-up view of a dining table within a restaurant in Seoul, South Korea. The central subject is a black, textured circular plate presenting a mound of deep red, thinly sliced raw beef (yukhoe), centrally topped with a single, vibrant orange raw egg yolk. Surrounding the beef are arranged accompaniments: a segment of thinly julienned white radish, a fan of four triangular slices of orange cheese, a pile of fresh green leafy vegetables, and a separate cluster of white sprouts. An empty small, round metallic dish rests on the right side of this plate. The table surface is dark with a polished, speckled appearance. To the far left, a portion of a circular metal grill, indicative of a Korean barbecue setting, is visible, alongside a small, partially cleared metallic plate containing food remnants. In the blurred background, a person wearing a cream-colored cable-knit sweater is seen holding silver chopsticks over a black rectangular partitioned plate, which contains various small side dishes, including a grilled mushroom, what appears to be cooked meat, and green vegetables. A silver metal drinking cup stands on the right side of the table, adjacent to a smartphone with a dark casing. The ambient lighting is dim, consistent with an indoor restaurant environment.
