Culinary Class Wars contestant Choi Kang-rok will join runner-up Edward Lee on the reboot of JTBC’s popular cooking show Please Take Care Of My Refrigerator, the South Korean broadcaster announced on Monday (Nov 4).
Both Choi and Lee appeared as “white spoon” chefs on Culinary Class Wars, a hit Netflix show that dominated the streaming platform’s charts for weeks after its release in September 2024. The term “white spoon” refers to Korea’s top chefs, many of whom are celebrated restaurant owners with distinctive signature dishes.
The two chefs will reunite on Please Take Care Of My Refrigerator, also known as Chef & My Fridge, the South Korean cooking variety show that debuted in November 2014.
Known for its unique format, the show challenges chefs to create meals from ingredients found in a celebrity’s refrigerator within a limited time.
The reboot will be produced by Lee Chang-woo and written by Kang Yun-jeong, both of whom were involved in the original season that aired for five years.
The exact broadcast date has yet to be announced.
