As a proud member of the BTS ARMY, I watched the first episode only for the septet's member V a.k.a Kim Taehyung. I was utterly excited to watch him do something new and hone his skills in cooking, serving, and as advertised by the makers; doing the dishes. The first episode delivered just that but also so much more.
The human side of the "World Star V" that fails hilariously yet works incredibly hard in his assigned tasks is beautifully highlighted in the episode. His laid-back fun attitude and bond with the crew is a joy to watch as well. This has also increased my expectations to see his growth as an intern/cook and how his rapport with the cast strengthens as the show progresses.
To the non-BTS ARMY viewers, Jinny's Kitchen is a wonderful show to pass time while learning about Korean Cuisine which has exponentially grown in popularity worldwide in the past few years. Watching top Korean actors working tirelessly to run a restaurant in a foreign country is refreshing but the icing on the cake is the chemistry and the fun banter among the five cast members. You will be laughing to your heart's content and also ordering some Korean food to quench your craving after the show.
I am rating the first episode a solid 10/10. I thoroughly enjoyed it and am looking forward to my weekly dose of the show.
