Feels like a Hallmark movie. Not for me
I didn't really like how unnecessarily rude the Male Lead was to the Female Lead right from the start.Also this show kind of seems like a Hallmark movie lol. Like: beautiful lady from the big city goes back to the small town she went to in her childhood and ends up falling in love - with a local man and with the town itself - so she decides to stay. Nothing wrong with that premise, of course, it's just not my favourite type of story, and I've seen it a million times in cheesy Hallmark films. :|
Perhaps I'll come back to this show at some point.

4000 W. are 2.80 E.
Unfortunately, I had to cancel the series. I may have been too hasty, but I don't like an artificial character like Hong Doo Shik, who is supposed to be an all-rounder and Everybodys Darling. He can do everything, knows everyone, everyone loves him! His dealings with the grannies are adorable.He is not friendly to the stranger Yoon Hye Jin, he is brusque and unpleasantly unfriendly, an experience that strangers unfortunately make everywhere. But that compatriots are treated this way is questionable.
I cannot share the opinion of many critics here, who claim that the FL is arrogant. At least in the 1st episode, which I have watched, I have the impression that the FL is treated cheeky and insulting, while she behaves normal and only a little insecure.
Ridiculous the whole storyline because of the 4000 Won (ca.2.80 Euro). For this ridiculous sum she is accused of lying, harassed with insinuations, massively insulted and then dragged by the Hong hero for hours through the village ultimately to an unreasonable "work" position.
Here she earns with unfamiliar work, in which she was also not correctly instructed, converted ca.20.- €. She ruins her designer clothes in the presumed value of several 100 €. to pay her f**king debts.
These idyllic islanders are supposed to be simple, nice people. They only confirm the prejudice of provincial obduracy here. So, friends of the night, I'm out. If you like the series, go ahead, there's nothing wrong with it. Maybe the story will be better later.

Obnoxious female lead perfectly matches the Gary Sue male lead
Hometown Cha Cha Cha is overhyped and boring with leads who have zero chemistry. Watching them made my heart sink particularly the 34 yo female lead who was arrogant and devoid of a lick of common sense. Whoever wrote and cast this series must have gotten their break via nepotism because nothing about this story resonates at an emotional level. It's a shame the high ratings misled me into watching this slower-than-molasses series. Can honestly not recommend it to anyone.(Synopsis: At a crossroads, a dentist moves to a seaside village where she meets a handyman intent on helping his neighbors.)
