Local Glow Up: Korea’s Flagship

Synopsis
A special two-part edition of C-upside Down Café Clinic, the SBS makeover series known for revitalizing struggling neighborhood cafés through bold design and heartfelt storytelling.
This time, the challenge goes national. A closed-down school is transformed into a stunning new regional landmark under the vision of acclaimed space designer Ryu Jeong-Su. But the makeover is only half the challenge. Alongside the renovation, a high-stakes pâtissier competition is held to create the signature dessert that will define the newly reborn café.
In the finale, a panel of local citizens steps into the transformed space to taste, vote, and crown the winning creation. Blending innovative design, culinary artistry, and community spirit, Local Glow Up: Korea’s Flagship celebrates the power of creativity to breathe new life into forgotten places, turning abandoned spaces into vibrant destinations and sources of local pride.
