We need more sitcom dramas like this!
When you're not in the mood to watch heavier dramas and just want something lax, Eulachacha Waikiki is that type of drama to watch.The story revolves around these trio of friends struggling to rent out their vacation guesthouse all while navigating life events. Their chemistry together was what made the show, and they were so funny! The first 9 episodes or so got me laughing at every scene at their absurdity. I love how they're not afraid to make fool of themselves.
However. it starts slipping after that. There aren't as many funny scenes, it gets serious, and everyone seems to have a romantic storyline, which isn't necessary! It would have been perfect if it remained lighthearted all the way through.
There was something going on until the very end, that I didn't even notice it was the last episode. I tried Season 2, and the cast just doesn't compare to the original. We need more funny dramas like this to wind down!

This drama is so so good. It has a nice storyline and the characters are so darn funny. My favourite character is Lee Joon Ki cuz whenever he comes on screen I die of laughter and I'm sure you will too. Doo Shik is such a cutie and a real gentleman. Dong Goo is Dong Goo 😂 and I really like him too. Yoon Ah, Su Ah and Seo Jin are also really nice characters and seeing all of them go through crazy adventures together was really a lot of fun. Whenever you're feeling down, watch this drama cuz I'm sure that you'll be laughing like crazy after watching even 5 minutes of it. The second male lead, Hyun Joon, is such a mature person. The way he cared for Yoon Ah and how he wanted her to truly be happy and wanted the best for her was just so cute and heartwarming to watch. I definitely learned a lesson from him. You'll definitely like this drama and miss all the characters when it ends, specially Sol who is the star of the show. Though this show does have a second season, it does not have any of the original cast members except for Lee Yi Kyung which is enough for me to watch it 😄. If you're looking for a drama which is light-hearted and fun to watch, then this is the one you're looking for. I highly recommend it and I'm really gonna miss this show now that I've finished watching it.😭 Was this review helpful to you?
Cute and refreshing!
The writer must really hate the characters, because whenever something bad happens, it gets worse. And when you think it can’t get worse, it gets EVEN WORSE and I love every minute of itThis was really cute! The 20 episodes just flew by, it’s crazy how quickly this drama ended, considering I usually find it a tad hard to finish extended kdramas. I really liked this overall, the show was absolutely hilarious, especially in the first half, and had some really cute romances in the second half. I still can’t decide whether or not I like that Welcome to Waikiki has a more realistic take on relationships than most kdramas, but it was definitely refreshing at the very least and really fit the overall theme of the drama. I’d definitely recommend this as a light pick-me-up kdrama where you don’t have to think too much or worry about too much conflict. All of the ships were super adorable, and one of them I definitely did not expect but ended up being my favorite one surprisingly! The only things I’d say were negatives in this drama are the fact that some jokes were feeling reused a bit (there’s only so many times a character can fart in their sleep before it becomes gross and not funny) and the fact that the “main” couple of this drama had a weird uneven development to their romance which kind of made it a bit awkward to follow. Otherwise, this drama was a blast and one of the funniest dramas I’ve ever watched!

More than just a comedy
People have talked about the comedy of this drama, so I want to point out another thing. Despite the comedy that could make me tired of laughing, this drama also has hidden messages. I love how they didn't give up on their dreams, didn't mind keep doing it even though they knew the result would not be as they expected. Somehow they might not look realistic, but it shows how people who hold on to their dream don't have other things that they want to carry on except doing anything to chase their dream.Was this review helpful to you?
I watched this first just because of Kim Jung Hyun and I truly fell in love.
It got me hooked from the first episode of the drama and I promise you'll have the time of your life watching this. Yeah the story is what it is for a sit-com but the acting is gold and I highly praise the cast for that.
Because I don't like long review here is why you should what this, if you already haven't.
+ Great acting
+ Guaranteed laughs
+ Reliable characters
+ Sol is the cutest thing ever
+ The romance is just fab

The scenario is simple yet funny and fresh. Each episode it's an individual story but there's still a continuation. Although there is a lot of romance this is not just another love story drama.
I really enjoyed this drama and I'm happy they decided to go for season 2. I would definitely re watch it.

Content.
- The kind of comedy that makes you feel secondhand embarrassment, face palm or fold double with laughter.
- Beautiful moments between friends, family and love interests.
- The reality behind chasing your dream
- Some really ridiculous adults
- Amazing acting.
- The right amount of romance.
This show was great in so many ways. Although it may feel dragged out sometimes, all the characters had their own special personalities with the realistic touch of being dirty, imperfect, insane, loving and constantly in need of money. The chemistry was good and the back stories were right where we needed them. All the lose ends were tied at the end and left me with a feeling of nostalgia and happiness every time I think back. I hope you will feel the same.
ENJOY!!

Light-hearted comedy
LIKEI only remembered the iconic Joon Ki and Seo Jin. They totally nailed it in the entire drama.
DISLIKE
I just don't have frequency with Jung In Sun. Her character is okay but I just don't like her.
MUSIC - personal fav
Waikiki Wonderland - Ulala Session
Cheer Up - Choi Sang Yeop
REWATCH VLUE
Probably if I got tired of horror, thriller, fantasy, legal and crime dramas.

don't Miss IT... but don't overestimate IT.
short summary:three friends run a guest house that is not really successful. one day they discover an "abandoned" baby in one of the rooms and decide to wait for the parents to show up before calling the police. when the mom does show up they find out that this girls has basically nowhere to go therefore they hire her as a "maid" and start living all together with some other friends.
i Saw Many excelent reviews about this Drama and was really exicted about it. don't get me wrong, I'm not disappointed but this is not the perfect drama that people want you to believe.
it is indeed funny, the gags are copious and cute but some episode were really hard to get through.
the sketches were highly predictable, not very ingenious and I've found myself skipping many scenes. overall it is a really good drama with good actors and and a cozy atmosphere.
the main issue lies in the main couple. their love story was really boring, not developed at all and the character of Yoon ah was frankly sooooo boring.
we never get to know why she left the baby in this guest house specifically.
the real star of the show is the character of Joon ki. he's the highlight of the whole series. his character is so funny and his scenes are unforgettable like the "gwenchana" scene with Rebecca the car.
if you are looking for a good laugh, cute moments, good chemistry between actors look no further.
I can't wait to start season 2

Unskippable!
Sometimes i felt that I want to skip some parts but I couldn't!Every second is just worth to watch and funny to the bone.
The romance sometimes bring a heartwarming ambience that I love so much.
And also the ending is sooo satisfying, baby sol is sooo adorable.
Firstly I found Dong Gu's character is so annoying, but as the character develops, he is the most attractive for me- at least.
But I'll only recommend this drama only to 21+ age people😅 you know why
The plot twist is unpredictable even some is quite predictable, but still not boring at all.
When I was watching this, I really need a break time from laughing too much and feeling second hand embarassment😅
Plus I love Dong Gu and Yoon Ah's relationship so much, it brings a lot of warm for my little heart, they are so precious to me🤧
Overall, it's so good but you should lock your room and make sure that people can't hear your loud laugh🥲
