Meet the Cast of Genie's Kitchen 2
Park Seo-joon, Lee Seo-jin, Choi Woo-sik, and Jung Yu-mi will reprise their roles from season 1 of “Genie's Kitchen.” Lee Seo-jin, who played the role of a novice businessman in season 1, will transform into the accomplished owner of Genie's Kitchen.
He is a talented actor and variety show star, appearing in many variety shows such as “Yun's Kitchen,” “Three Meals a Day,” and “Yun's Stayover,” so viewers are eagerly awaiting his return as the owner of his own restaurant.
Co-starring with him will be Park Seo-joon, a popular actor known for his roles in hit Korean dramas such as “What's Wrong with Secretary Kim?”, “Private Life”, and “Itaewon Class”. He will take on the role of a restaurant manager, trying to boost sales in the kitchen.
Express to Busan actress Jung Yoo Mi returns as a director in Genie's Kitchen 2. She will be taking charge of the business and motivating her employees to succeed.
Additionally, Choi Woo-sik, a talented actor who has appeared in many masterpieces such as “Parasite”, “Killer Paradox” and “Lovely Summer”, will join as an intern at Jinny's Kitchen. He is expected to work hard to help the owner Lee Seo-jin spread the goodness of Korean food to the people of Northern Europe.
Finally, Go Min-si joins Choi Woo-sik as an intern to complete the cast. She is the newest member of Genie's Kitchen 2. In season 1, BTS's V took on the role of intern, but due to military service, the K-pop idol is currently in the army.
Go Min-si will be taking his place, and there are high expectations for her synergy with the existing cast. She is a talented actress known for her roles in Korean dramas such as “Sweet Home” and “May of Youth,” and fans are looking forward to seeing her deliver a great performance.
