We Will Eat Well is a South Korean television program. It was transformed into a food talk show, rather than its initial concept of a girl group "muk-bang" competition (eating broadcast).

Controversy
editGirls Who Eat Well originally was a "muk-bang" show in which members of different girl groups would compete by eating a variety of foods in order to earn the title of the best girl group eater. The format was criticized by viewers uncomfortable watching girl group members be judged on their eating.[2] The show aired two episodes before it was renamed to We Will Eat Well and became a food talk show.[3]
