Dear teachers,
I just saw a piece of subtitle, i.e. "go in the kitchen"
If I were, I would say "go to the kitchen".
For more examples; go to the room(I would not say "go in the room")

Your opinion please. Thank you.

It depends on the context really, "go in the kitchen" could be correct.
 
I've just had my tea. I'm about to go into the kitchen to wash up.
 
I don't understand your question. Could you explain, please?

It was a joke based on "wash up" -- as if someone were dirty. In AmE would not normally "wash up" after tea.

We speakers of BrE normally wash up - wash the dirty cups, dishes, etc, after- using them.

We clear the table and do the dishes. ;-)
