Producer Kim Hak-min explained the ratio of producer Kim Hak-min 'black and white'.

The TOP8 press conference of Netflix's original entertainment series 'Black and White Cook: The War of the Cooking Classes' was held at Hotel Naru Seoul M Gallery in Mapo-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 7th. PD Kim Hak-min, PD Kim Eun-ji, and Choi Hyun-suk, Jang Ho-joon, Jung Ji-sun, Edward Lee, Triple Star, Cooking Dol-Ai, Imokase No. 1, and Naples Matpia attended the event.

Producer Kim Hak-min said, `The rule for two super passes and 22 players to go up was a rule that had already been decided. It was already the moment when the third round was decided to be 22. Personally, the most regrettable moment was the 11-11 moment when the judges designated two black spoon. Intriguingly, the production team hoped to be mixed. I thought it would be more realistic. But it's not going our way. TOP8 also has four black people and four white people. It's a part that's decided regardless of our intention. It's a shame that I have to accept the result, but personally, I wanted it to be mixed. "'It has to be 11 to 11, it has to be 4 to 4' and there was no intention of it.'"



"Black and White Cook" is an entertainment program about 100 chefs who compete fiercely with each other, challenging the best star chefs in Korea. The dramatic process of finding the best 'taste' of black and white chefs who are serious about cooking, the mission beyond imagination, unconventional rules, and the dramatic process of finding the best 'taste' is exploding viewers' dopamine.

According to the Netflix TOP 10 website on the 2nd, 'Black and White Chef', which will release the final episode on the 8th, recorded 4,900,000 viewers (viewing time divided by the total running time of the work). Since its release on September 17, it has been ranked No. 1 in Netflix's Global Top 10 TV (non-English) category for two consecutive weeks, including No. 1 in four countries: Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, and Hong Kong.
