Netflix's ”Black and White Spoon” Syndrome: Season 2 Needs to Conquer the Western World

Netflix variety show "Black and White Spoon: Cooking Class War" has received a rapturous response from around the world and has confirmed a second season. It has become a syndrome in Asian countries, including Korea.
According to the Netflix Global TOP 10 website, "Black and White Spoon" was ranked 1st in the top 10 in the last 10 years.
Since its premiere on September 17th, it has been ranked No. 1 in the non-English TV show category for three consecutive weeks. "Black and White Spoon" has been ranked No. 1 in four regions, including Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, and Hong Kong, in the three weeks since its release.
It has been ranked in the top 10 in 18 regions, most of which are in Asia. "Physical 100" season 2, which was released in March, has ranked in the top 10 in the United States, Canada, France, and the US in its first week of release.
This is in stark contrast to the fact that the name was included in the top 10 list in 87 countries, including France, Germany, the UK, and Egypt.
It is a survival show in which chefs challenge star chefs, the "White Spoons." The fierce competition, dramatic storyline, and the individual personalities of each participant combine to make it a fun show to watch.
The theme of class expressed in "Spoon" has garnered sympathy and immersion, resonating with the emotions of Asian viewers hoping to destroy authority and see the birth of a new star.
On the other hand, some analysts say that the black-and-white "class war" theme is generally viewed negatively in the Western world.
In Asia, the term "black and white" is used metaphorically to describe opposing situations or competitors, but in the West, it is used as a negative term associated with racism.
The original title is "Black and White Chefs: The Cooking Class War," but the English title uses only "The Cooking Class War" without "Black and White Chefs," which is also due to this influence.
Experts stress that globalization is important for Season 2. Popular culture critic Jeong Deok-hyun said, "To build a sympathy circle with more viewers, we need to have famous shareholder who are active overseas.
There needs to be intuitive changes, such as having Hu appear and diversifying the missions."
