- indet., regular leaf, medium size pink round fruits, 3-6 oz. The first fruits were slightly lobed with semi-empty seed cavities and thick firm walls. The later fruits were more juicy. I think Chuck Wyatt's seed was mixed up or crossed, as the SSE members who obtained the seed from him give this tomato different description. I labeled it Korean Love Pink to differentiate from red Korean Love.
Seed source:
- Denise Salmon, Vancouver, BC, Canada 10 / MD WY C 01 (Chuck Wyatt, Maryland) / NM HA R 95 (R.T. Hagar, Moriarty, New Mexico) (2001 seed)
Year grown: 2010
Location: Zone 7b, PNW, Anmore, BC, Canada (760 ft above sea level)

- 80 days, indet., regular leaf, good producer of sweet, medium size fruit that were pink for me with no cracking, very good flavor.

History
- First introduced in the Seed Savers 1996 Yearbook by Chuck Wyatt of Maryland, who listed it in 'Red' section, as a medium size tomato, but did not mention fruit color in his description. Other SSE members who got their seed from Chuck Wyatt say that the fruit was medium sized pink for them. No SSE listings in 2005-2006, and in 2007 this variety was again offered as a large red, seed from Mr. Hahm-Hartmann, Germany.
- So it is not clear whether the original Korean Love tomato was pink or red. Mr. Hahm-Hartmann's Korean Love is certainly red, but medium size.
