Let the food fights begin on Let’s Eat 2
by girlfriday
We might as well prepare ourselves for the impending calorie spike ahead. Season 2 of tvN’s surprise-hit food-obsessed drama Let’s Eat is gearing up to bring us another torturous array of delicious dishes. Let’s Eat 2 brings back Yoon Doo-joon as Gu Dae-young, aka Shiksha-nim, food blogger and general know-it-all nosy neighbor. This time he’ll have an entirely new cast of neighbors to boss around about what they eat and how they eat it.
The second season follows Yoon Doo-joon’s character as he moves to a new building and reunites with his grade school classmate Seo Hyun-jin (Three Musketeers). She’s been living alone for ten years, which means she’ll have plenty of her own single-living tips and opinions about food, setting her up to have a contentious relationship with Yoon Doo-joon.
She’s a freelance writer with a crush on her other neighbor, played by Kwon Yul (Roaring Currents, What’s Up). He’s a civil servant who lives simply and eats simply. The sequel comes from the same PD-writer team that brought us the first season, and promises another round of neighborly hijinks and, of course, lots and lots of food.
The posters feature Yoon Doo-joon and Seo Hyun-jin warring over the proper way to eat sweet and sour pork: Shiksha-nim sayeth that the sauce must be poured over the meat, while Seo Hyun-jin insists that dipping is the way to do it. Kwon Yul just sits by with his sad triangle kimbap and says that he’ll just eat whatever. Aw but there are so many tasty things out there! I’m sure Shiksha-nim will open his eyes to a whole new world.
I’m still mad about the second season taking one character away from the neighborhood (and love interest!) he had in the first season, but I am interested to see how they’ll write it, and if they’ll win us over with a reluctant friendship. I do love rom-coms about longtime friends. Maybe there’s a glimmer of hope for you yet.
Let’s Eat 2 follows Ho-gu’s Love on Mondays and Tuesdays beginning April 6.

I'm so shallow. I was complaining that it'll never be the same. EVER. And I refuse to like Season 2.
Then they show these posters and I'm like, "Come on, come here, QUICK, Show!"
And hey, that girl from Bad Guys and Heart to Heart and Sweden Laundry! Haha~ I'm glad to see her here.

Hehe-- me too! I'm shallow and fickle. And I'm good at rationalizing it away by telling myself that this is just an alternate universe, and that the original cast of Let's Eat are still enjoying their HEA in their world. I just wish that Barassi could be a part of both universes.
Cute poster! I like Seo Hyun-jin and I think she'll have good chemistry with Yoon Doo-joon.

Another shallow one here. I wasn't even pretending that I won't watch Season 2 when they announced the cast change. I can't wait for the yummy food and hopefully similarly engaging characters as Season 1.
And I love Yoon Doo-Joon. So that's that.

LMAO I did exactly the same :D
I've been complaining on all the previous posts about how awful it was that they've destroyed the love-line and how I'm not going to watch this season, but now I'm totally on board! :)
The cast look too good, it's Doojoon, and FOOD, GLORIOUS FOOD! I can't resist :D
I wish they'd stuck to the Friday slot though. It used to be subbed by Friday evening here, and Friday's are my pigout/takeaway days. How am I gonna deal with the hunger every Tues and Wed now? :/ well there goes my diet.

While I will miss the Season 1 gang , ( Lee Soo-Kyung, where are you hiding at? Girl needs another Rom Com) , I think we're in good hands with Doon-Joon and Hyun-Jin.

Well they're certainly doing a good job of reminding me why I loved season 1 so much. I'm still too annoyed to try season 2 straight of the gates. But I'll be paying attention to reactions by the beanies.
And yes people break up in life but let's be honest...they always have sequels where the girl gets constantly switched up and the guy moves on to someone younger. You spent a season building it up to be "meant to be" so no, it doesn't work for me. I'm sure the season ill still be cute, quirky, and yummy though.

This is all Season 1's fault for selling its central romance and heroine so well that the thought of Gu Dae-young without Lee Soo-kyung makes me sad.
But I still want to see what this show is like because
1. food!
2. Seo Hyun-jin. I would have preferred Three Musketeers Season 2 to this (Crown Princess!!) but I will take her any way I can get her.
3. Yoon Doo-joon. Good at acting the troll (good at acting in general) and looks ridiculously handsome even while stuffing his face. What's not to like?

It's my deepest wish that they will simply use Gu Dae-young as the "cupid" who brings the other two together instead of creating a new romance for him. Regardless, I know I'll still watch for the food and the very racy eating scenes. Hubby seriously asked me one day exactly what I was watching, since he could only hear the ecstasy of the eating.

Yes Lee Soo-Kyung was practically orgasmic in the first few eating scenes, lol.

I am in...I loved the first cast and and our favorite smartypants puppy. But, I like this cast, too.
Still on the fence about the story line.
Yoon Doo Joon, I almost didn't recognize him under the light colored bangs, cap, glasses and plaid. Amazing to see the contrast of that versus his character.

Good thing those pics with his hair on his face look like just script reading pics! I too find him much more attractive with dark hair. The auburn isn't bad in the promos though. I'm a Beast fan and he rarely has ever had his hair light. He's my fave cause he always stays very dark and classy.
He and Lee Joon are probably my favorite cross-over idols right now.

They do well, don't they? One of these days I may have to watch Gapdong just to see Lee Joon's performance in that. Well, maybe. It really is not my cup of tea.

and speaking of hair, what is with this recent dramaland trend for those stupid half-*ssed (sorry, no nicer word for them) fringes/bangs on drama heroines these days?
They're probably supposed to be wispy or something but they look like a rat chewed them or your hairdresser forgot to finish cutting full bangs. I'm sorry to see them on Seo Hyun-jin too, she's normally so pretty with her hair off her face.

Yay for 2 servings of 'Let's Eat' every week!!! I've only seen Seo Hyun Jin in Feast of the Gods and I have no idea if she has done any lighthearted dramas so I'm excited to see her in this one. Although I'm devastated that they didn't cast Lee Soo Kyung, I'll be staying for the food porn. Bring it on!!

Well I've said this a thousand times but yes I'm still disappointed with tvN's decision to bring a whole new cast. I still feel that I was 'fooled' into loving every single character of the first season, but now I'm just crossing my fingers.
I gotta admit that I'm starting to be interested in the new season; new cast look promising, Doojoon still looks fresh as ever, and the poster still looks very fun.

I may be the odd ball in here, but the reason I dropped Season 1 is because of Lee Soo Kyung. I just didn't like their pairing. Idk why.
So I am really excited about season 2! I won't have any problems watching it because I have hardly any memories of season 1. Hehe :)

I don't really care if they change all the casts as long as Doojoon and the Food is there.
But, what? The second male lead is strangely handsome(?)
I still can't get over the first season--someone help me, I kept re-watching it whenever bored with current airing drama

Well, I still feel cheated. I didn't know it was possible but my dissappointment increased even more after watching the trailers. I take my favorite shows, movies, books seriously. To this day I still check if anyone from the Lost creators, writers are involved in a new project and don't watch if that's the case. Same will happen with HIMYM and now with Let's Eat. Are they bad writers? Of course not, they all are actually pretty good (don't feel the same about producers though). But if I see or feel that they are betraying their own story and characters I don't take it lightly.
So, I'm still not watching this. My friend asked me if he should tell me things if they managed to adjust the story because he will be watching it. I said, no, please no!
I'm just glad that Dujun got rid of his light hair, should be even darker. He's best when he's natural.
