The widely popular South Korean variety show Jinny's Kitchen, led by Lee Seo-jin, is all geared up for another season, creating excitement among viewers and fans as it is reportedly said that Park Seo-joon will join the second season as well, yet fans and potential viewers of the show wonder whether new members will be cast for the upcoming season.

Come and enjoy their specialties made with love.”
According to Nielsen Korea, the show was a huge success domestically and internationally, receiving the highest viewership ratings of 9.4 percent nationwide.
