On October 3, Choi Hyun-seok posted several photos on his SNS with the caption: “I met him at the Blue Ribbon 20th anniversary after-party. As soon as we made eye contact, we both burst out laughing.“In the photos, the two are seen embracing each other, smiling.
Notably, Choi Hyun-seok added hashtags like “Why did you do this to me?”, “I hate the person, but not the food” AND “I like Mosu cuisine”, which amused netizens.
The two recently appeared on Netflix’s “Culinary Class Wars,” where they clashed as contestants and judges, creating palpable tension. Ahn Sung-jae rated Choi Hyun-seok’s cooking style and performance, and Choi Hyun-seok cleverly mentioned it with his hashtags.
“Culinary Class Wars” is a cooking competition show where “black spoon” chefs challenge “white spoon” star chefs. Choi Hyun-seok participated as a contestant, while Ahn Sung-jae appeared as a judge, creating conflict from their different perspectives.
Rapper Hanhae, also a fan of the show, left a comment on their reunion post, jokingly asking, “Did you remove the garlic?“
Their meeting brought back memories of the show’s intense moments, sparking interest. Many viewers who witnessed their first meeting on the show expressed curiosity, asking: “Are Choi Hyun-seok and Ahn Sung-jae not on good terms?“
Their connection dates back to 2015 when they appeared together on “O’live Show 2015.”
At that time, Choi Hyun-seok was the host, and Ahn Sung-jae, who had just returned from the United States, appeared as the host. Despite his awkward Korean and tense atmosphere, Ahn Sung-jae respectfully called Choi Hyun-seok “elderly“while they cooked together.
Meanwhile, new episodes of the Netflix original series “Culinary Class Wars” are released every Tuesday at 4 p.m.
