Helinox, a leading outdoor brand, unveiled its first collaborative camping cookware set with Nanro—a Korean community focused on the science of barbecue—via a limited-time campaign on the crowdfunding platform Wadiz.
The set, which allows simultaneous grilling and stew cooking to enhance flavor, gained widespread attention even before its launch, with over 5,000 early notifications. The product surpassed its funding goal shortly after the campaign began, which will run exclusively on Wadiz until July 30.

◇ A collaboration inspired by a historic painting
The project began in late 2023 when Nanro Chairman Choi Jung-yoon showed Helinox CEO Young La a painting from the late Joseon Dynasty titled “Sulwho Yayun (Outdoor Feast after a Snow)” by artist Kim Hong-do. The idea was to reimagine the festive scene from the 18th century with a modern, stylish twist.
The result is the Jeolliptu & Stove One set, which draws inspiration from historical scenes of people from various social classes gathered around a brazier to grill meat and enjoy camaraderie, now brought to life through a contemporary lens.
Nanro contributed over two years of research and experimentation focused on barbecue flavor, while Helinox applied its design and functionality expertise to adapt the concept for camping. After a year and a half of joint development, the final product was completed with a central goal of fostering shared culinary experiences.

◇ Functional innovation rooted in tradition
The Jeolliptu griddle features a scientific structure that enhances meat flavor and incorporates an “Oil Road” system that channels drippings into the stew compartment, embodying the harmony of grill and soup inherent in traditional Korean barbecue culture.
Constructed from full three-layer clad metal for superior heat conductivity and retention, the cookware is finished without nonstick coating to preserve the natural taste of ingredients.
The companion Stove One features a dual-burner system for simultaneous or independent cooking of grill and stew, and is the first in Korea to include a built-in check valve for enhanced safety and usability.
Its design draws from traditional Korean braziers and paper sliding doors, blending classic aesthetics with modern sensibilities.
◇ Gourmet experiences beyond camping
From planning and design to material selection and cooking tests, this project combines the full expertise of Nanro and Helinox. The set is also ideal for home dining, catering to both culinary novices and gourmet enthusiasts.
The cookware is available exclusively through Wadiz as a set with portable, easy-to-store accessories. The product is also on display at the Helinox Creative Center (HCC Seoul) in Yongsan, Seoul.
