Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha Episode 6 Reacties
This episode had my so giddy. I felt for Yoon Hye Jin. Maybe it was that she was insulted he didn't just admit that they had kissed, or she just lashes out if she feels rejected. But. BUT I will say that Doo Shik is acting like more than just a friend. He's really pushing into her personal space and what she is comfortable letting him in at. He's the one that truly seems like he wants more. He's putting those vibes out there while telling her differently.
This was such a beautiful episode for parent love. Especially the love a dad has for his daughter. I cried. It was so wonderful.
That ending!!!!!!!!! HE-he-he!!!

As the story develops and layers are peeled away to reveal multi-dimensionality in each character, we learn that Jang Yi Jun loves studying Chinese characters and is thoroughly immersed in historical traditions. Setting up the ritual for the grandmother’s annual ceremony for honoring a deceased family member, he knows exactly what goes into each of the north, south, east, and west positions. He becomes the director as mom proudly looks on. Mom adds a rolled cake which her own mom loved, and her son re-positions this non-traditional item to fit the best way possible.
Yi Jun is also excellent in math, taking top honors at school. But he also has good “nunchi” and knows how to read a room. He even has a level of maturity that I’ve seen in children who’ve faced some challenges early in life (the opposite can also be true: immaturity and late development). Yi Jun tells his parents when they gather for his birthday that next year they don’t need to celebrate this together any more. He sees how hard his parents are trying to be parents, gritting their teeth as they want to tear each other apart. The adults have, so far, done a fairly good job of keeping their anger towards each other over the divorce private: they only spat when Yi Jun is not around.
Of course, we only have six episodes to gnaw on so far, and it will be interesting to see how Yi Jun navigates having his homeroom teacher be his dad’s first love and one of his mom’s good friends. I bet the writers will provide him with something to say about that love/hate triangle. It’s possible that his words may even be the catalyst for pushing the relationships in one direction or another. After all, so far, he’s been nothing but the model student, son, and friend. I do love this show and want to say one more thing about nunchi. Dr. Yoon sure started out doing a poor job of reading the village life and the tone of how people act in the village vs in the city. Compare her actions to the two local women who own restaurants and real estate and are friendly rivals. They know when to join hands and when to pick a spat or put each other in their places. Hye-jin is beginning to see that, bit by bit. On the flipside, Doo Shik-i certainly knows how to read a room and adapt to many situations. He’s far more than a handyman in that small town; he’s the glue that holds in all the loose screws.
