Chef Kim Tae-woo, a fan of "Black and White Chef 2," expressed his thoughts on the modifier that resembles actor Cho Woo-jin. In addition, he also confessed his honest thoughts on appearing in entertainment shows in the future.
Chef Kim Tae-woo told the story of Netflix's original entertainment show "Black and White Chef: Season 2 of Cooking Class Wars" (hereinafter referred to as "Black and White Chef 2") in an interview with Star News held at somewhere in Gangnam-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 14th.
"Black and White Chef 2" is a fiery culinary class war between chefs of Jaeya's master "Black spoon" who try to overturn the class with only taste and Korea's best star chef "White spoon" who try to protect it, and chef Kim Tae-woo appeared as a "fan dosa" and impressed global viewers.
After the broadcast, Chef Kim Tae-woo drew more attention as he resembled actor Cho Woo-jin. In many online communities, the names of Chef Kim Tae-woo and Cho Woo-jin were mentioned together, with reactions such as "It's just Cho Woo-jin with glasses," "The visuals of the two at least having a relationship with heterogeneous cousins," and "I was surprised to know that Cho Woo-jin was cooking." In particular, this reaction grew even more recently when Chef Kim Tae-woo wore glasses on Chef Ahn Sung-jae's YouTube channel.
Chef Kim Tae-woo said, "When I heard such a story (before appearing on 'Black and White Chef 2') about "Looking like Cho Woo-jin," I thought, 'What are you talking about when you don't look like him at all?' But when I saw my face on the show, it really looked like me. To be honest, I admit it. These days, I'm hearing a lot that I look like actor Cho Woo-jin," he said, bursting into a hearty laugh.

In addition, Chef Kim Tae-woo is loved as a character with both seriousness and humor. In fact, chefs who appear on "Black and White Cook" are receiving love calls on various broadcasts. When asked about his intention to appear on entertainment programs in the future, he answered flatly, "I don't want to be a broadcaster."
"That's how I am at the moment. I don't want to get too absorbed in broadcasting or entertainment. I have work to prepare, and I have a lot of family members to take responsibility for. "If it's an entertainment show that observes my daily life or a small broadcast like that, it might be okay, but I don't want to go all in on the broadcast," he explained.
Chef Kim Tae-woo's 'preparation' is the next step in cooking. He is currently working on a cooking research institute and preparing to open a yakiniku store, said, "I can't show you all 25 years of my cooking life, but I'm constantly preparing the next step and the next menu."
He said, "The cooking lab will be completed soon, where I want to develop a menu and come up with a completely tested dish. The yearning for yakiniku has been going on for 16 years. Imagine eating rice there. "Isn't that driving people crazy?" he said with a smile full of excitement.
