Chef Sam Kim (49, real name Kim Hee-tae) announced his thoughts on the challenge of "Black and White Chef 2."

Sam Kim is the owner chef and "original" star chef who runs two restaurants. After making his name known as a real model of MBC drama "Pasta" (2010), he opened the heyday of "Cooking Room" as an original member of JTBC's "Please Take Care of My Refrigerator" (hereinafter referred to as "Coolish"), and showed off his sense of entertainment in MBC's "Real Men 2" in 2015.

Chef Sam Kim, in particular, has drawn attention by ambitiously challenging OTT Netflix's cooking survival "Black and White Cook: Cooking Class War 2" (hereinafter referred to as "Black and White Cook 2"), while he is active in "Cold Sea," which was revived in 2024. Unfortunately, he was eliminated in the 10th inning, but he proved his outstanding skills and is gaining popularity with his unique good charm.

Chef Sam Kim, who once again emerged hot, responded to a phone interview with Star News on the afternoon of the 11th and told his honest story about 'Black and White Chef 2'.

In particular, Chef Sam Kim emphasized the special meaning of the challenge of "Black and White Cook 2" by reflecting on his initial intentions. "Black and White Chef 2 was literally a challenge," he said, adding, "I came to understand the youngest's mind anew."

Chef Sam Kim said, "The best thing is that I felt 'relief' during the team match. In fact, I'm the representative of a store and I'm almost in my 50s, but I belonged to the 'youngest' side in the middle of BaekTeam's chefs. It was absurd, but that's how much the Baek team got together with "grand seniors." But everyone played as the same chef, not as a senior, junior, or junior concept. I wonder when this was, and it was so thrilling that dopamine exploded. When I really played the team match, I was impressed, "Oh, I don't have any regrets even if I fall now."

He also pointed out the secret to the fantastic teamwork of Team Baek, who was even impressed by the viewers. Chef Sam Kim said, "We talked a lot during the team match. What I also told you was, "I hope you don't get upset." Everyone was on the same page as I wanted them to tell me about the team without adding or subtracting. So, when seniors talk about plating, if not only me but also other chefs think it's not right, they say, "I don't think this is right," and offer a different way, and they accept it. When we acknowledged each other, there was no real cacophony. I remember being relaxed and smiling," he said, expressing a deep sense of trust.

Chef Sam Kim responded, "Rather than being satisfied with the results, regardless of the ranking, I've really enjoyed it. I've filmed a lot, but "Black and White Chef 2" was the first time I've worked so hard with dopamine. "It's a shoot, but I feel like my class has done well when I went to a sports day," he said, still remaining in the afterglow.
