The Blue Ribbon Survey (Korean: 블루리본 서베이) is South Korea's first restaurant guide established in 2005. It is published every year reflecting the evaluation data of the general public collected through its website.[1]
History[edit]
According to an interview with Weekly Hankook, editor-in-chief Kim Eun-jo had been planning the Blue Ribbon Survey since 1999. At that time, however, evaluation was meaningless because there were not a lot of restaurants in South Korea and the quality of food and service was low. After the 2002 FIFA World Cup, the number of restaurants nationwide and their quality increased, so the survey could begin in 2005. Kim also claimed that the survey combined the strengths of the Michelin Guide and Zagat Survey.[2]
Rating system[edit]
- Three blue ribbons are awarded to restaurants that have the best skills in their field.
- Two ribbons are given to restauarants that you want to recommend to the people around you.
- One ribbon is given to restaurants that you want to take the time to revisit.[3]
The evaluators were divided into "general public knights" (일반인 기사단) consisting of bloggers interested in food or gourmets and "professional knights" (전문가 기사단) consisting of related industry officials, professors, and reporters. General public evaluators could give two blue ribbons at most while professional evaluators could award three ribbons.[2]
