why does this week feel so long??? I love how we all have homcha withdrawals now... at least I have companions…
Ikr. I'm so used to binging the series I watch. This is the last time I put myself through the torture of starting an ongoing drama. It's 45% regret and 55% worth it.
What a problematic unhealthy relationship. Remove them from the village and put them in any other community and…
He didn't "put her in situations she didn't ask for" to "change her to his liking", but just invited her to community gatherings and the like to help her feel included. When you first enter a community (which is what small towns normally are like bc everyone is so connected), you have to interact and engage with others otherwise you'll stay out of the loop, and that makes life a bit more difficult. He saw that she was a good person, and wanted to make her feel more welcome. He's a friendly and social guy, so that's in his nature, as shown on multiple occasions. I don't see anything wrong with that, and she willingly (albeit a bit reluctantly) went along with it because she saw that he had good intentions and wasn't doing it to be a bully. She also noticed it was helping her grow her business and as a newcomer, you have to interact with society to get customers. It's *because* she knew no one in town that he brought her around to introduce her to people and their lifestyle. If you intend to move and start a business in a new place that's vastly different from what you're used to, you *have* to learn to adapt. Also, in Korean culture, the community expects you to go around and mingle with them, and it's considered rude not to, as shown in one of the episodes.
Of course, like you've said, to each their own, and maybe if you were in her shoes you would've flat out rejected his help. However she didn't, and on occasions that she did, he respectfully backed off.
Don't stick to just one word and read the paragraph full and then it makes sense.“Many viewers brought up the…
I absolutely agree. I get what they mean because I have seen (and fumed over) many dramas that have used "crimes against women" as a plot device to make the male lead look "cooler", and then subsequently forgotten it ever happened by having the female lead still be dumb enough to approach a group of gang members with knives *for no reason and with no plan whatsoever* (clearly I have a drama in mind that I haven't gotten over). However, for the reasons stated above (and below, it seems), I don't think HomeCha deserves that sort of criticism when it's doing and saying so much more with those scenes.
Basically all 16 episode romantic dramas has the confession/kiss around 8-10 episode. Back in the day you could…
Yeah when I started HomeCha, I remember thinking they'd probably get together around the 8 or 10th episode. It's pretty standard, since it gives plenty time for the characters to grow comfortable in their relationship and sort through all the ups and downs. I'm pretty sure HomeCha will have a happy and comforting ending, remaining true to it's "every episode ends on a good note" theme (which I'm loving).
I dunno why is the writer's showing so many college scenes of Sung Hyun and Hye Jin like c'mon I feel guilty while…
Haha I think thats the point. They're tryna show it from his POV as he has yet to move past those days, giving him more depth as the "rival", which i honestly appreciate. It really bothers me when a second lead is shallow with no back story or compelling reason as to why they're chasing the main lead in the first place, making them seem like nothing more than filler characters. However, I'm assuming they won't show too many of his college day scenes after maybe the 11th/12th episode since his one-sided romance storyline is coming to an end. Hopefully they'll focus more on his character development instead, and maybe hint at some romance with the screenwriter x)
For the first time in my life, I felt compelled to rate a drama before it ended. My rating might change as the episodes progress, but I feel that it's unlikely given how promising this drama seems. Can't wait for episode 11!
In which episode FL and ML unite? Are there any misunderstandings between them after their union?
She sees him again in the first episode, but they "reunite" in the second one, I believe. The drama starts after the time skip, so you don't have to wait to long. He also has an ulterior motive when they reunite, which she gets upset about when she finds out later. However, he's very clingy, so even throughout that period of 'misunderstanding' they're still constantly seen around each other. As I've said, its pretty fast-paced, so there are heaps of romantic moments between the two and any misunderstandings are sorted out fairly quickly, as far as I remember.
It was cute and interesting. I enjoyed the thrill of their romance, their sizzling chemistry, and how fast-paced it was. However, I wish the main leads, esp the male lead, were a bit more mature with their decision-making skills. The male lead's possessive, overbearing jealousy just rubbed me the wrong way, and he acted more like a 16 year old hormonal teenager than an adult in those moments. They also didn't seem to have the best communicative skills in their relationship, which once again made it seem like this should've been a high school/college drama than one about adults in their 30s. I also wish we could've seen more of their past together, maybe as a special episode. Nevertheless, it was a good binge-worthy drama.
This was a light-hearted, fluffy, feel-good drama with little to no conflict and a good pace. The main leads were level-headed and mature, and had wonderful chemistry. They faced realistic situations and dealt with it well. The actors honestly did a great job. Sometimes the pacing was a bit too slow, especially during the first half of the series, but it helped set the mood for the plot to progress. Managed to binge it over 3 days, and though I'm not amazed nor left in awe, I feel happy and content at the end. It's a good drama to watch if you wanna have a mello night in and watch something cute and calm. It definitely helped ease my anxiety over upcoming assignment submissions >.<
I'd say, go rewatch it the moment you can't stand not seeing them. It's better like this until the flame dies…
Haha, "absorbed" sounds hilarious but I get what you mean. You're right, I think I'll rewatch it once I've finished the drama I'm currently watching xD Thanks for commenting!
I believe that's cause a lot of people consider Sam Dong the second lead and not Jin Gook. Maybe? Jin Gook get's…
I too always rooted for Jin Gook and thought he was the main lead. The ending really threw me off because I honestly didn't think she'd end up with Sam Dong.I re-watching it now to see whether I'll still feel the same at the end. Jason and Pil Sook were definitely more fun to watch though xD
Of course, like you've said, to each their own, and maybe if you were in her shoes you would've flat out rejected his help. However she didn't, and on occasions that she did, he respectfully backed off.
