In a recent appearance on MBC's 'Questions by Son Seok-hee,' Monk Seonjae, recognized as the first master of temple cuisine in South Korea, reflected on his relationship with food and the profound memories it evokes, especially regarding his mother. He discussed the changes he has experienced since participating in the Netflix culinary show 'Black and White Cook' and noted how he has become somewhat of a public figure, being approached by fans for photos. This newfound recognition has led him to spend less time outside, as he often feels the need to avoid crowds. Despite this, he acknowledges the joy of meeting people at the broadcasting station after a long time.
