Chef Ahn Sung-jae, who is enjoying a syndrome-class popularity as a judge with Jongwon Baek in the original Netflix series 'Black and White Cook: The War of the Cuisine Classes'.
In a recent interview with the fashion magazine Harper's Bazaar, Chef Ahn said, `The most memorable thing is the food from the food stand. To be honest, I didn't expect much at first, but I couldn't stop when I started eating. As if a child was just scooping up meals when he was hungry at school. I kept eating, thinking that it was delicious without thinking. When I came to my senses, I found that he was half-empty," he recalled at the time of the screening with a smile.
"There are still a few dozen more participants left to be judged, so I stopped and gave them a hold because I thought I couldn't." In my mind, I'm already accepted, so I thought about it again. With the suspension, I think even if the Jongwon Baek representative judged that it was not good, he would have said "No, let's just pass it." I still want to eat that food again," he replied.
There were only two conditions for deciding to appear. The first is that the chef should not be seen only as pretentious or exaggerated for fun. I take great pride in my job as a chef who works in a restaurant every day. I thought the chef's appearance on TV was often not shown sincerely, and he said it was absolutely not possible. The second was that this broadcast should help the restaurant industry unconditionally. After a while, the production team contacted me again and said they would reflect everything they wanted."
Finally, as a chef, on how to develop Korea's fine dining culture and the restaurant industry, "It is said that Korea's restaurant culture is lagging behind, but we are a country where the restaurant industry is revived with just a Netflix program." People open their wallets and experience eating out is something that can grow enough if they try. In order to further develop the Korean food service industry, I think it is necessary to further review and improve laws related to imports and exports.," he said, expressing his conviction.
