Netflix is releasing more interesting behind-the-scenes footage every week after the main episode is released 'TMI Collection Video'. Regarding the 1:1 black-and-white match between Choi Hyun-suk and One-two-three in the second round, the Jongwon Baek said, "The match with the most difficult discussions" and added, "In the end, I won." Judge Ahn Sung-jae's opinion is reasonable, but the result was important because the game was decided by taste" he explained. The overwhelming scale of ingredients caught the eye in the third round of the black-and-white team's ingredients room. In addition, the results of the team match changed depending on the leadership and teamwork of the team leader. Producer Kim Hak-min revealed the behind-the-scenes story, saying, `I set up the fish the day before, but I kept it all night just in case it died.' `The remaining ingredients, fish and meat, were wasted, so the production team shared them.' Producer Kim Eun-ji revealed that it was entirely up to the performers to select a leader after forming a team. Ahn Seong-jae conveyed the importance of leadership, saying, `Restaurants can lose or win a war, depending on what the leader decides to do.'
