Oh my heart!!!

Ufff!! Seonho made my heart flutter and left me smiling like a fool in just a few minutes... Ahh, these kdrama men are going to kill me one day. They need to understand my heart can't take so much torture.

Best episode of the drama.

If only choose 1 episode to watch in the drama, this 1st ep is my only choice.

This episode perfectly represents the whole story.

The chemistry, the climate, the music, the cinematographic scenes, the music, and more...

It is light, cute, and charming.

All these make it the best episode of the drama.

There is beauty in simplicity.

Yoo PD perfectly described the drama, "This is not a series about big events. It’s about the small stories in our daily lives. The emotional changes. It’s about healing and warmth and I hope that is the message we can send to the audience. The drama is entertaining and fun and we are by the sea so the backdrop is beautiful as well so I’m sure there will be lots of unique visuals." It was able to deliver what it is intended to convey to the audience.

I really liked the beginning! To be honest, I started this drama because of Shin MinA and Kim SeonHo, but I'm happy to see other great actors and actresses like Kim Young Ok, Gong Min-jeung, Jo Han Chul and many more!!

Hong banjang is indeed Gongjin hero!

Hometown Cha Cha Cha Ep 1 gives us a perfect character introduction to us. Every character in HomCha seems to be strong and has their own background story. Can't wait to see the character development. It's so promising from the beginning!

The Start of Healing

They started the series with the beautiful scenery of Pohang. And they showed the busy life and huge buildings of Seoul. Really love how they introduced the casts and the chemistry between KSH and SMH was compelling.

A Tropey Episode with the usual dose of KDrama Cringe

I always wonder how Korean audience watches shows with the same formula recycled and reused, but I guess execution makes all the difference. Started this for Kim Seon Ho and his performance was at his usual level. The Female lead had some scenes where the acting was off ( as in unneccesary or just executed badly) This Drama seems to push Townspeople as talkative folks lol. I quite enjoyed it, visuals were great. The Awkward scenes weren't very awkward, atleast not STARTUP level awkward. I shall continue this drama for kim seon ho. KSH calling all Soap Opera the same made my day. I was hysterically laughing with how cheezy " I'm Chief Hong" scene at the end was. This Episode was more like a prologue I guess. The Actual show starts in ep2. Overall, it was a decent episode.

warm first episode

The characters are dianamic and all very lovable with good acting to no-ones suprise from the main leads and even across the whole cast the acting is fairly decent. The pacing of this story is something I wanted to mention because I thought it was really good even just from 1 episode. We get to find out so much and equal amounts from the main leads about their characters and the relationships they have. This pacing gave this drama a really warm feeling and makes you smile. Overall if your not watching this I highly recommend putting it as a high priority on your PTW list but I'm a little bias because of the cast so if dramas about relationships in small towns (and whats in the description) is your cup of tea I highly recommend so far. it also reminded me of home and my childhood but that might be more my own nostalgia than the drama.

1st episode Dimple Couple Chemistry and storyline Superb!

Ever since StartUp, I have watched almost all of Kim Seon Ho's Dramas and this guy never disappoints, his acting is always the best, it's as though he is the character! And Shin Min Ah uri Gumiho girl she is like the icing on the cake! These two are the best combo! Hometown Cha cha cha is a remake of the 2004 South Korean film Mr. Handy, Mr. Hong. I just watched the 1st episode and felt what I haven't felt in a long time, Love & Curiosity to know more. I highly recommend you guys watch this! Infact I feel its not your typical ROMCOM it has an essence of its own. While we see on one side how talented and beautiful Shin Min Ah's character Yoon Hye Jin is at the same time we also see she has a tender and righteous heart who also seems to have some back story which we'll get to know more about in the coming episodes. While Kim Seon Ho's character Hong Doo Shik is a Master of all trades like he can do almost any job and loves to help the villagers and is very close and caring towards the elder people there. He's a very optimistic character and has a charming smile[I mean Kim Seon Ho;-)]. There is very little revealed about his back story so we'll have to wait to see in the further episodes to know more about his back story.

FINALLY!!!

Finally Netflix Italia is uploading this drama, two episodes each week, so I can finally watch it more comfortably with subs in my own language!I just finished to watch this first episode and I can totally see why everyone is talking about it, I'm already deeply in love with the vibes thia drama gives me.It takes a few elements from classical dramaland, but in my opinion it add something new to the mix!I don't know what it is, but I like it a lot!I also enjoy the lead couples. The protagonist is super invested in her work, but in the right way. She likes what she do, and she doesn't just want to achieve money, she is just and I love that about her!The male lead is a mystery to me, that's probably the kind of person that you love if you know him, but might scares you a bit if you don't know him...He looks really invested in his community well-being, he seems to know everyone, and everyone seems to love and respect him!Whole watching I didn't really know how to feel about him. Didn't know whether I wanted to hug him or trow a rock at his head...I think this couple might turn into something adorable at some point!I'm curious now!The last few minutes of the episode melted my heart, I feel so genuinely happy at the moment...I'm also happy for her decision to open a clinic one her own! You go girl! 🎉

A premissa é otima.

Eu já amei!!!!Eu ri tanto, toda vez que ela ia pra um canto ele aparecia como um fantasma KKKKKKK a química dos dois é perceptível e eu não tinha visto o trabalho de nenhum dos dois então é a primeira vez! quero ver mais dele, espero que a gente não fique só vendo o lado dela!Ela é uma pessoa boa porém não me parece o tipo de pessoa que olha sempre para os outros e se mudando ela vai começar a perceber outras coisas!
