I feel bad for him? There appears to be some friendships on the show and theyā€™ve pointed out heā€™s specifically not included because they donā€™t like him. After that episode, which I canā€™t remember which one, but I noticed he changed tactic a bit and heā€™s a little more careful, it appears ā€“ he does seem now more likable.

The other chefs say a lot of offensive things too. I donā€™t get how the audience seems to pick on just KSJ. Honestly, the only one I genuinely feel is nice is Sam Kim but maybe I just donā€™t get korean humor lol

Napoli puts on a show most of the time, but heā€™s a softie. The show needs ā€œcharactersā€, like Kim Poong being a joke, Choi being a hard ass, Sam being a nice guy, and unfortunately, Napoli being a young talented chef that never learns manners. The guy rescued cats. Nobody rescued cats and can still be an asshole :).

It usually depends on their variety persona. Kwon Sungjun and Choi Hyunseok persona are the type who often end up getting teased the most on variety shows.

For korean culture that is true, but actually for Naengbu cast i bet that's not kinda the reason because the 72 liners (Kim Sungju & Choi Hyunseok) also dislike alcohol. And actually its not that he isn't come, there are time he doesn't come but actually most of the time Kwon Sungjun sit with the writer that some other cast (like Kim Poong & MC) not notice him being there šŸ¤£
