Why sharks chewing them then ? Are deep sea cables has special flavor coated ? Or deep sea cables has weird electromagnetic wave that attract shark ?

Some sharks have electroreception that allow them to sense electrical currents for hunting prey.

Both of those have been causes.

Modern cables don't attract them, but sharks were a constant problem for many decades.
