The preparation for Jinny’s Kitchen season 2 is reportedly underway. Although the release date is yet to be confirmed, the update on the cast members has been revealed. Jinny’s Kitchen, also known as Seojin’s Place, is a spin-off of the 2017 show Youn’s Kitchen. It is a South Korean street food variety show.
tvN recently confirmed that Jinny’s Kitchen is in production and that Park Seo-Joon, Jung Yu-Mi, and Choi Woo-Sik are set to join Lee Seojin in the show. Producer Na Young-Seok has been in touch with the cast members, and they have agreed to do the show. However, BTS’ V is not returning for season 2 as he is currently serving his military enlistment period.
After premiering the first season, Jinny’s Kitchen garnered much love and traction from the viewers. The concept of putting South Korean street food in the vast market was extraordinary. Unsurprisingly, Park Seo-Joon, BTS’ V, and Choi Woo-Sik’s presence became the main selling point.

Jinny’s Kitchen season 2: Star cast has been revealed
According to Star News Korea, the Jinny’s Kitchen team, including Lee Seojin, have reportedly planned to begin filming for season 2 in March in Iceland. However, the show’s cast members are still adjusting their schedules to be in time for the shoot. Park Seo-Joon has an advertisement to shoot. Meanwhile, Choi Woo-Sik is set to start filming his upcoming drama, Melo Movie, at the end of March. Jung Yu-Mi has previously committed to finishing projects. Thus, it seems like aligning the timings of these Korean actors is not easy.
A source clarified to Star News, “The members have already talked about doing ‘Seojin’s’ season 2 together. Due to the nature of ‘Seojin’s’ filming while staying abroad for about two weeks, they have to leave their schedules blank for a long period of time, and the members they are all actors with very busy schedules, so detailed coordination is necessary.”
While everyone from season 1 will be returning for Jinny’s Kitchen, the youngest intern, BTS’ V, will be missed by fans this time.
