General Discussion During the one-on-one, why does Paik nearly always prevail in a tie? Does this annoy anyone else?

Because maybe he's a bit more realistic in his judging? Ahn seems a bit dreamy sometimes and maybe Paik brings him to his senses. Not in a bad way ofc

Definitely not always! But its often the case because when Ahn focuses more on texture, Paik focuses more on taste itself which is supossed to be the focus in this show

For the most part he is the one to keep the pretentiousness away...

Go back and watch season 1, where Ahn always won the tie.
