Let's Eat (Hangul: 식샤를 합시다; RR: Siksyareul Habsida) is a South Korean television series starring Lee Soo-kyung, Yoon Doo-joon, Shim Hyung-tak and Yoon So-hee.[1] It aired on tvN from November 28, 2013 to March 13, 2014 on Thursdays at 23:00 for 16 episodes. The series is about four single people living in one apartment complex who are brought together by their love of food.[2]
Plot
Four single people—happily divorced paralegal Lee Soo-kyung, mysterious gourmand Gu Dae-young, design student and former rich girl Yoon Jin-yi, and petty lawyer Kim Hak-moon—enjoy living alone, except for that pesky problem that dining out is not designed for one. At Jin-yi's request, she, Soo-kyung and Dae-young start eating out together and thus get involved in each other's lives.[3][4]
