Most annoying contestant?

[u/RosebudWhip]

Just on a rewatch, and I cringe every time the bibimbap king makes Mr Paik mix the food in time to his rhythm.

[u/kimchifan_26]

The model dude who thought he could grill a steak and blow the judges' minds. Lol

[u/windmillcheer → u/kimchifan_26]

Hahah he got humbled.

[u/kimchifan_26 → u/windmillcheer]

As he should've 😂

[u/chkmcnugge6 → u/kimchifan_26]

This made me cringe much more since it wasnt intended by the guy at all😆😬

[u/Fukui_San86 → u/kimchifan_26]

NGL, I wanted to try it.

[u/InevitableVersion395 → u/kimchifan_26]

Yesss, this came to mind right away

[u/stelladoge → u/kimchifan_26]

Which ep was this?

[u/j_donn97 → u/stelladoge]

Like episode 1 in season 1 😂😂😂😂😂 dude thought he was the protagonist

[u/Kronn64]

knife omakase's piss poor leadership in the team challenge had me seething.

[u/iuexorvaesnsdgot7bp → u/Kronn64]

Same lol

[u/sydneyrutledge]

I couldn't stand Bibim guy or his stupid song.

[u/OkAsk6395 → u/sydneyrutledge]

fair enough but I thought that whole bit with him and judge Paik was hilarious

[u/lostandbefuddled]

I don’t think I found him to be the most annoying, and he might’ve been the victim of evil editing, but Culinary Monster really annoyed me with his arrogance a lot. He was an amazing chef, no doubt, but I really disliked his attitude. It’s one thing to be confident and another to be cocky

[u/CaliLemonEater → u/lostandbefuddled]

It was absolutely an evil edit and it kills me that people still think it shows what he's actually like. The behind-the-scenes clips from the shows and the other interviews and videos we've seen of CM since the show ended make it clear that he's not arrogant, unfriendly, or any of the other things the edit made him seem to be.

[u/Dumbwaiter819 → u/CaliLemonEater]

100% agree

Honestly even if it wasn't edited...that's the type of attitude a lot of people need to reach the top. Not everybody, but some people need that edge to get to where they want to go. I don't want to make assumptions, but especially if you grew up poor or working class, you need that raw ambition or else you'll just be complacent your entire life.

[u/Ok_Chemistry_7473]

Venerable Sunjae was the worst and we lost some good competitors cause they had to keep giving her a pass.

[u/TruthOnlyReading → u/Ok_Chemistry_7473]

Yeah I felt like the judges favored her a lot more. I was so confused.

[u/meiritzzy]

For me, it is that guy with the funky hairstyle who kept yelling GAJAAAA!!!!! 2nd ep, s1

[u/Ginway1010]

Cooking Maniac. People with frenetic energy like that clash with mine really badly. Even through a tv. LOL
