As the global spread of K-Culture continues to elevate international interest in Korean cuisine (K-Food), Chinese renderings of Korean dish names remain largely confined to ingredient- and technique-oriented informative translation. The official guidelines issued by the Korean Food Promotion Institute (KFPI) and the Korea Tourism Organization (KTO) have made significant contributions to reducing mistranslation and ensuring terminological consistency; however, they fall short in conveying the expressive (aesthetic) and appellative functions required in tourism and culinary promotion contexts. Drawing on Skopos Theory (Vermeer, 1989; Nord, 1997) as its theoretical framework, Transcreation as its practical method, and the ya-cheng (雅稱, elegant naming) conventions of traditional Chinese gastronomy as an empirical model, this study proposes a suite of transcreation strategies designed to shift the translation skopos from information delivery to the elevation of cultural prestige (格, ge). Three core strategies - metaphor and metonymy, aesthetic chromatic borrowing, and cultural allusion and auspicious narrative - are systematically applied to thirteen representative Korean dish names, including japchae, bibimbap, and gujeolpan. The analysis yields practical implications for enhancing the international brand standing of Korean cuisine and offers a basis for developing supplementary transcreation guidelines to complement existing official standards.
