As the Netflix series 'Black and White Chef: The Cuisine Class Wars' became a hot topic overseas, some Chinese people argued that "Korea stole Chinese cuisine" sparking controversy. The black and white chef ranked top 10 in 28 countries around the world, including Korea, and ranked No. 1 in Netflix's global top 10 TV (non-English) category for two consecutive weeks since its release on the 17th of last month.
However, in China, where Netflix is not in service, various social media outlets suggest that "Korea steals Chinese cuisine" should not allow Korea to steal it." make an absurd claim. In particular, referring to the Chinese food 'Bath' made by a Korean chef, 'Koreans will claim that it is Korean food' is spreading the video and article.
He is even criticizing the representative of Jongwon Baek, who appears as a judge, by calling it 'Great Thief'.
In response, Professor Seo Kyung-duk of Sungshin Women's University pointed out that "Nedlix is not available in China, but it is simply a red flag to make such a forced claim after secretly peeking."
Professor Seo also emphasized, `On the contrary, China will have to abandon its bad habit of stealing Korean kimchi, samgyetang, and hot pot bibimbap.' `China must first respect other countries' cultures.'
