These are some of the reviews from fans.
- Judging is highly competent, direct, honest, fair, respectful, and dignified without condescension.
- If there’s Korean language on screen, it should also be translated into subtitles. We want to know too!
- I also thought it was a bit strange when Judge Paik mentioned the appeal of the food/dish to foreigners.
- I really like the show. I struggle with when shows have such a large number of contestants, and then they cut a large number at once.
