• Netflix's original entertainment show 'Black and White Chef: Cooking Class War Season 2' Top 4 Chef interviews

(Following the interview ②)

Chef Jung Ho-young revealed the meaning of "cooking" to him.

Chef Jung Ho-young recently told a variety of stories related to 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 a written interview with Star News.

Black and White Chef 2, which ended last month with a hot topic, is a fiery cooking 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 Baek Soo-jeo Jeong ranked in the top four.

Chef Jung is an original member of JTBC's cooking entertainment program "Please Take Care of My Refrigerator" (hereinafter referred to as "Cold Your Refrigerator"), which is the original cooking entertainment show, and has contributed greatly to the cooking entertainment craze. It was enough to be a model for many to see him, already a star chef, test himself once again through "Black and White Chef 2" and reflect on his passion for cooking in the process.

Chef Jung said about the meaning of "cold noodles" and added, "It's a place like my hometown that allowed me to have Jung Ho-young today," adding, "It's a valuable program that showed that chefs can communicate with the public and entertain them through broadcasting. The resurgent "Cold You" is my excitement as if I met "first love" again, he said.

In addition, Chef Jung, who is showing off his unique sense of entertainment by appearing on KBS 2TV entertainment show "The Boss's Ears Are Donkey Ears." Is there any concern about some of the views that are seen as broadcasters and entertainers, not their main jobs.

In response, Chef Jung said, "It's not bad to be called a broadcaster, but I always think 'cooking Jung Ho-young' is the root." So on days when there is no broadcast filming, I try to keep the kitchen of the store unconditionally. "If the center of the kitchen is shaken, broadcaster Jung Ho-young always keeps in mind that it is meaningless," he said calmly.

Chef Jung said, "What if you didn't cook?He gave a truly young and witty answer to the question. He said, "I think I probably became an athlete. This is because he has a bit of a desire to win. Or maybe he was an ordinary office worker, but I think he was leading his colleagues by becoming a "manager of a restaurant" who was more serious about lunch menus than anyone else, he said, smiling.

Chef Jeong returned home after studying at Japan's prestigious Tsuji Chef College, a world-class culinary specialty, and operates sushi kaden, udon kaden, and Robada yakaden. It is already known that there were financial difficulties in the early stages of the start-up. I also asked about the philosophy of cooking and life that I had through a series of processes.

Chef Jeong said, "In the early days, I had a lot of debt and it was so hard that I couldn't sleep. What I realized at that time was the simple truth that 'if you don't give up and do your whole heart, the customer will eventually know'. My culinary philosophy is 'joy'. I believe that the energy is delivered to the customer only when I enjoy making it, so that it becomes a happy meal," he said.

"It is my priority to operate the Kaden that I operate now more faithfully," he said, adding, "If I have a personal dream, I want to create a small space to promote Korean-style Japanese food abroad and show my udon and cooking to people around the world."

The theme of the final of "Black and White Chef 2" was "Cooking for Me." Then, what would Chef Jung like to serve as a dish just for himself.

Asked, he said, "I want to make seaweed soup and freshly cooked pot rice boiled with sincerity. I'm doing fancy cooking as my job, but in the end, the most basic thing that comforts me the most is warm home-cooked meals. I want to eat slowly, saying to myself, "Well done, Jung Ho-young."

The meaning of "Black and White Chef 2" is also extraordinary. Chef Jung said, "(Black and White Chef 2) was like a hot 'summer' in my cooking life. He expressed his affection for the program, saying, "It was the most intense, I sweated the most, and it will be a page that will be remembered brilliantly."

Finally, Chef Jung said to the viewers who gave them hot support and great love, "I sincerely thank you for your support and support for me, which is not enough. I will give you a pleasant laugh through the broadcast, but I will not lose the appearance of "Chef Jung Ho-young," who is always sweating in the kitchen and contemplating the best taste. We will continue to repay you with delicious dishes," he said.
