Chef Ahn Sung-jae, who is gaining popularity by appearing as a judge for 'Black and White Cook', evaluated the Jongwon Baek for his co-judgment.

Chef Ahn Sung-jae appeared on JTBC 'Newsroom' on the 20th and had an interview.

When a female anchor came out in the purple suit she wore and said she dressed like a chef, she laughed to herself thinking that she had a concept that imitated the style I wore as soon as she saw it for the first time.



Chef Ahn Sung-jae said "The production team said that if you don't go on a diet, you can't do it."Even then, I ate a lot, so I gained a little weight." I was losing weight, but I lost weight hard because I was motivated by the appearance of the 'Black and White Chef.'"

Regarding one of the production team meetings that "'I won't be able to object to my review', I thought that "I'm the one who can do it fairly if there are two judges." I was worried that I might be arrogant."



When asked about the combination with the Jongwon Baek judges, he laughed when he said "It was bad." Chef Ahn Sung-jae said "The national team's standards and mine are different because the teamwork is not good. So I thought it was fair to see the food from various perspectives"We are best friends with CEO Jongwon Baek now. I respect it so much, but I will not bend my opinion even if we meet again.'

Chef Ahn Sung-jae picked Jung Ji-sun, the Chinese chef, as the participant who broke the mold of his food. He said "Since the dishes I specialize in are the base of Western Japan and Korea, I was surprised that the pasta made by chef Jung Ji-sun of Chinese food seemed to break the mold."

When asked how he felt to see his disciples in relation to the appearance and activities of the chefs who worked under chef Ahn Sung-jae, "I don't like the word student." I have never had a student. As a chef, I'm just a colleague. "I know exactly how much they can do, but I was so emotional as a colleague who worked with me because I had a lot more worries and skills improvement. I almost cried."

When chef Choi Hyun-seok is dropped, the word smile is a topic of conversation "It is a hand expression that lamb sharpens have too many things in it. It was an expression that was delicious and fun because it was too complicated to express, but I don't know if I thought I lacked tofu. "

When asked about his wife's cooking skills at home, "If you evaluate the food your wife cooked, you will be in big trouble. I can't sleep at home. "On the contrary, the children have a strict appetite. Even if it's a little ambiguous, I don't eat it. The food I make most nervous is children's food."

Currently 'Black and White Chef Season 2' has been confirmed, and the chef asked if he would join, "He (suggested) me, but I think we need to talk more. If there was a better judge, what would I do?" he said generously.

Let's ask for an interview review in the newsroom "Talking with the announcer is so elegant. "'Deng-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo-yo," he said, drawing laughter.
