好きじゃありません or 好きじゃないです?

3년 전
One of my students asked me which expression is correct,

カレーは好きじゃありません。
or
カレーは好きじゃないです。

The answer is both are correct.
Although we can say both of them in the same situation, I guess most Japanese prefer to use 好きじゃないです rather than 好きじゃありません in their daily conversations.

好きじゃないです feels like more casual and 好きじゃありません feels like more polite or sometimes too polite.
