Many users rate and not necessarily leave comments. Especially the ones who rate lower might not leave a comment in fear they'll get pounced on for having different views and taste.

Really? I'm not so sure.
It's an average rating. Less than 20% voted 8, but look at the percentage of those that voted lower than 8, even if the percentage is small, it still brings the average rating down. I personally voted 8.5/10. It's not too far off from my rating.

I personally found the acting a bit cringey at times, a bit anime-ish. The production value, however, is great and outshines the cringey-ness. I loved the games, action and music. Definitely check it out. You can speed through the cringey bits. That's what I did, lol. Sped watched cringey parts. Overall, very enjoyable drama.

I thought it became a bit too anime-ish too at times. That rooftop scene where they stood far apart from each other, in a perfect equilateral triangle when speaking to each other, I was like *roll eyes*. People don't stand that far apart and talk. And this was after they unnecessarily relocated to the rooftop to chat. They could have chatted wherever they were. Despite some cringey acting, I agree production value is great, loved the games and overall enjoyed the drama.

You made yourself sound stupid is exactly what it means. If you think I'm calling you stupid, then you are incorrect. Want me to emphasis it differently so you might better understand? YOU made yourself SOUND stupid. Unlike you directly calling me an idiot. Big difference. Were you triggered? Oh whoops, well hey, it doesn't have the same negative connotation. On my scale, it's only a 5. [Edit: oh, I see you've edited your comment, you can ignore this response]

Ah~~ I see. English is not your first language. That explains a lot.

You're a kiddo because I'm an old lady. Your responses give me that impression. You really do like to argue, kid. Oh, and again, no negative connotation there.

Yes, you can cater to each person's sensitivity. Express your opinions about the drama only in this thread and not about other people. Do you work? Just curious how you express your opinions about other people at work (that you disagree with/who don't agree with you).

Some people are timid and won't reply or ask for an apology. I admit I didn't like that you said to OP "you must be delusional", whether politically correct or not, whether you think it doesn't have a negative connotation or not. It's all about how it's perceived. Those kind of insensitive comments lead to online bullying. I'm not saying that's what you're doing - online bullying, but I am saying insensitive comments like that is where it may start for the victims. A couple of users have tried to advise you of better ways to express yourself and you've brushed them all away - kid much? If I am bothered by belittling online comments to another person, that means if I hear you say what you said in your first post to another person in real life, I will also speak out about it. I'm sure I won't be manipulated, but rather, I will gain allies along the way in our Sweet Home world who will help me fight off monsters that wanna kill me. =D

I don't need psychiatric help, but you definitely need to re-assess your attitude.

I feel like we're going in circles and I'm speaking to a brick wall. *yawns*. Good chat, kid.

How about you start understanding what violence & profanity actually mean? (from google) Violence - behaviour involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something. Profanity - socially offensive language, which may also be called cursing, cussing or swearing, cuss words, curse words, swear words, bad words, or expletives. No mention of explicit scenes. As I have pointed out below in my comment to another user, AiB tags also do not mention explicit scenes or reference to gang rape. Sweet Home has the same content rating: 18+ Restricted (violence & profanity) - and not a single explicit scene. Did you learn something new today?

*facepalm* OP just wanted to express their opinion that they would prefer a little less explicit scenes, just like how you expressed your opinion that you don't mind the explicit scenes. Why are you and the others so triggered? An adult drama does not always mean there is explicit scenes. Sweet Home is a perfect example. It has the same content rating: 18+ Restricted (violence & profanity) - and not a single explicit scene. Even in the tags for AiB, there is not a mention of explicit scene or reference to gang rape. It was unexpected for OP as it was for me. How were we to know and to expect those scenes to show up if we haven't read the manga? Someone explained to OP those scenes were originally in the manga, okay cool, doesn't mean OP can't say they would prefer it if there was a little less of those kind of scenes. AiB is still a great drama and I even recommended it to a friend, but I let her know there is explicit scenes so she's not thrown off by them. OP is correct, it was unnecessary (from our perspective, you don't have to agree, we all have different views and tastes), but telling OP to go and watch soapy Chinese dramas with cardboard kisses is very belittling.

Hahaha, oh gosh, I just had a little chuckle to myself. I was about to reply and say English must not be your first language, when you corrected yourself saying 'you must be' and 'you are' do mean the same thing. I wasn't so wrong when I said you made yourself sound pretty stupid. I have no idea what you're trying to say comparing 'you have a' and 'you are' when neither were in your first post - irrelevant.

I'm not sure what your point is, saying you'll give me the benefit of the doubt that it wasn't for the money. Dude, it probably is all about the money. Whatever request the authors made and whatever decisions the director made is definitely all about the money. They gotta make money and a living. I hope they DO make LOTS of money so we'll have a second season. I am merely answering your question why the writing changed from the webtoon.

mmmm nope, unfortunately this sentence of yours 'Even if I didn't read the webtoon, the drama is not deserving of a 9/10' is invalid because you DID read the webtoon. You weren't able to separate the drama from the webtoon and you're very disappointed. That's okay, you can be disappointed and rate it 7/10. Many webtoon readers did enjoy the drama because they knew not to compare adaption and original.

You kinda made yourself sound stupid again with this sentence "The majority can agree that it is rated 9/10 (They don't)", with the extra parenthesis. Look above at the average rating. It is now 8.6 out of 10, sneaking pretty close to 9. Safe to say, the majority rated it pretty high, dude.

You can call your friends delusional and they will take it lightly because they are your friends and personally know you. You don't know the OP and vice versa. While saying 'you must be delusional' is only rated 6 on your scale, it might be perceived differently to OP and rated higher on their scale, understand?

I feel like you're one of those people who like to debate for the sake of it, and not to actually progress intellectually as a human being. You know you're mistaken with your definition of 'you must be delusional' and choose not to apologize to OP. If our world ever became anything like Sweet Home, you'll be among the first to give into your desire, turn into a monster and get killed by Hyun Soo. Happy drama watching, kiddo.

I'm sure you're right, that the webtoon is much better. I have told you why the writing is different from the webtoon - at the request of the webtoon authors. They wanted to see a different perspective on their webtoon, and I also think it's to get people curious enough to check out the webtoon. This is good for the authors.

That's what I'm saying, of the 800+ users, I'm sure the majority didn't read the webtoon, but they rated the drama high. You are watching the drama through the lens of the webtoon, of course you will be terribly disappointed comparing the two.

Oh yes, definitely, your opinion matters - about the drama, mate. You can say all you want about the drama, but as other people have tried pointing out to you, don't undermine other people's opinion that matter just as much as yours. I'm trying to show you how ridiculous your comment calling OP delusional is by bringing in the majority, who agree with OP. Learn to respect other people's opinions just as much as you want everyone to respect yours. Have a good day.

Um, you do realise you're in the minority, yeah? Most reviewers have rated 8.5, 9, 9.5 or 10. I personally gave it a 10. The average rating is 8.5 from 800+ users. I guess we're all delusional and you're the only sane one. You're entitled to your opinion ABOUT THE DRAMA, we get it, you didn't like that it was not a copy and paste of the webtoon. Leave it at that, otherwise you make yourself sound really stupid. An adaption will never follow the original 100%. I dare say not even 90%. The most we'd get is 80% or 85% if we're lucky. If the drama was a copy and paste of the webtoon, no one would go and read the webtoon after watching the drama. Why the heck do you think the original authors requested the production team to express the webtoon differently? Sheesh.

Jisu was never infected. Her nosebleed was fake. They were doing a simulation to catch a monster and Jisu was pretending to be an infected / turning into a monster.

Thanks for your interest in Let's Shake It. Just a couple of FYI:
1. Dramacool does not sub. They take other people's hard work and re-upload them onto their site.
2. AVV has subbed until ep 15. The subbed episodes you saw on dramacool (ep 16-21) was not subbed by AVV, but someone else.
Sorry, but AVV will obviously pick up where they left off, that is ep 16, and continue to deliver high quality subs. It doesn't make sense for them to skip 16-21 just to do the last 5 episodes first. Whatever the others have done for ep 16-21 has nothing to do with AVV. Perhaps you may just need to wait a bit longer to see the final 5 episodes you've been waiting for. I'll definitely drop a line here once subbing resumes. =]

Hi Julia. Yes, AVV will definitely finish subbing season 2. It was on a bit of a hiatus due to various reasons. Hopefully we can resume subbing soon.

40 half-hour episodes. So 20 kdrama standard episodes.

We aim to release one episode a week, but sometimes real life may delay us. We appreciate your patience and understanding!

Absolutely! Subbing takes time so we really appreciate your patience. Thank you!

Check out my comment above for English subtitles! =]

I totally agree! I love this show! And who cares if it's a substitute doing the actual cooking (different hands shown). It's to be expected. The actress is not a chef in real life. It's the food/cooking process that matters! Oh, the amazing food. Makes me hungry every time I watch.

Hey guys,

I am pleased to announce A Virtual Voyage has partnered up with Productive Procrastination to provide subtitles for Chef Hua. You can download yourself a nice copy or stream online from PP, who has already started providing you links below if you haven't noticed.

Enjoy.

Thank you so much for your encouraging words! Really appreciate it. It makes all the time and effort we put into subbing feel worthwhile. It also makes us keep going and complete it no matter how long it takes! Episodes 11-14 are out on AVV and Episode 15 should be posted soon! Enjoy and thanks again for your patience.
