Before my considerations, I have to say that I'm happy that many things change since I made my first impressions. I'm glad that Kim Seon Ho could clarify the story that was leaked in such a careless way, but sad because the damage that this brought to him and to his ex-girlfriend is unmeasurable. A problem happened, people were hurt, and this impacted both of them. I'm cheering for Kim Seon Ho's recovery and really expect that this is the justice that many people (including me) were looking for. If you didn't read my first impressions, go for it: https://mydramalist.com/profile/8270201/feeds/47jqBiA.

If you are looking for a healing and soft drama, this was made for you. "Hometown Cha Cha Cha" has the cliché that we love so much in Dramaland and also a mature story for the ones who are tired of childish characters. I loved Hye Jin! At the first sight, I thought that I would hate her personality, but with the pass of the episodes, we can see a peculiar way that we don't see in many female leads. She is apparently superficial, but actually has a unique way to see the people and the world. The thing I loved the most about her was her facility to ask for forgiveness. We don't see this in many main characters. Shin Min Ah is so cute and so femme fatale at the same time! I love her since "My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho" and now is just another character of her that I really appreciate. Doo Shik was also pretty good to me, but I wanted a little more deepness in his character. His background was built with so much expectation, and I had the feeling that everything was solved too easily. Kim Seon Ho's great performance in cuteness is undeniably good, but I think that he shines better when it becomes deep drama. I hope that his next projects explore this.

The side characters were also pretty good. The story of Young Guk and Hwa Jeong made me melt into tears. Eun Chul and Mi Seon not so much. Ji Sung Hyun was the second lead that we love until the end, without craziness, evilness, and nothing that makes us angry. I cheer for him until the last second, not with Hye Jin, but with the OBVIOUS CHOICE (right???).

I'll give the position of pretty good to this one (★ ★ ★ ★ ★★ ★ ★ ). It is a drama that will warm your heart and make you feel light and peaceful.

XOXO, Mari.
