BTS’ V recently earned praise from renowned pop-culture critic Kim Heon-sik for spreading Korean culture around the world through his solo endeavors, namely his variety show Jinny’s Kitchen or Seo Jins.Debuting in his first variety show outside group activities, BTS’ V joined Park Seo-joon, Choi Woo-sik, Jung Yu-mi, and Lee Seo-jin for the new spin-off series Seo Jins or Jinny’s Kitchen. The popular food-based variety show is the second installment in the series after Youn’s Kitchen, helmed by Oscar-winning actress Youn Yuh-jung, and unlike its predecessor, Jinny’s Kitchen focussed on Korean street food.The cast members set up a restaurant in Bacalar, Mexico, with BTS’ V taking on the role of a dutiful server and an enthusiastic youngster in the team. Jinny’s Kitchen has been doing well locally and internationally, earning praise from pop-culture critic Kim Heon-sik, who credited “Main character V” for spreading the Korean or Hallyu wave around the world.“The appearance of K-culture's main character V, combined with K-wave, such as K-food entertainment shows by witty producer Na Youngseok, will create a synergistic effect.”Taehyung Naver || 네이버 김태형@naver_taehyung[Info] Taehyung is named as the "Main character of K-culture" by Culture Critic Kim Heonsik.“The appearance of Kculture's main character V, combined with K-wave such as Kfood entertainment shows by witty producer Na Youngseok, will create a synergistic effect." ~ Mr Kim Heonsik30241114[Info] Taehyung is named as the "Main character of K-culture" by Culture Critic Kim Heonsik.“The appearance of Kculture's main character V, combined with K-wave such as Kfood entertainment shows by witty producer Na Youngseok, will create a synergistic effect." ~ Mr Kim Heonsik https://t.co/BS2ExI3T1UBTS’ V’s variety show Jinny’s Kitchen is ranked number one in ten countriestaehyung pics⚡️@taehyungpic🍽️ TEASER | JINNY’S KITCHEN EP6 #V CUTyoutu.be/EhrZqoZIhvg#TAEHYUNGonJinnysKitchen 3/31 (FRI), 8:50 PM KST on tvN & TVING1149347🍽️ TEASER | JINNY’S KITCHEN EP6 #V CUTyoutu.be/EhrZqoZIhvg#TAEHYUNGonJinnysKitchen 3/31 (FRI), 8:50 PM KST on tvN & TVING https://t.co/EHF7uZpZfcBTS’ V’s appearance on Jinny’s Kitchen has certainly boosted the show’s popularity as it has become the first Korean entertainment program to be globally serviced on Prime Video.Jinny’s Kitchen, which airs every Friday at 8.50 pm KST, enjoys immense success both in its home country of South Korea and internationally.According to OTT ranking site FlixPatrol, Jinny’s Kitchen is ranked 15th on the 'Most Watched Show Worldwide' on Prime Video after its recent episode release.
