Waste of A-List Talent
This is a story of a girl who had big dreams. She is now reduced to wailing, whining and wasting away her life in relentless self-pity (7 episodes in and the self-pity party is showing no signs of abating.) Read this in Chandler's tone: Can she do anymore sobbing?WTS also tells the story of a boy whose only aspiration in life is to be with a girl and follow her around like a lost lovesick puppy. The sole purpose and impetus of everything he does is to one day see himself and Samdal ride off into the Jeju sunset. Ngl it may appear romantic on-screen, but that's the very definition of a loser in real life (think about it).
Misery, they say, loves company. Not so fast. Samdal's continued misery does not make for a great company, or chemistry for that matter. Because even with Yongpil's incessant smothering attention for the consummate damsel-in-distress Samdal, oil and water have better chemistry.
Now let's go to the plot. Welcome to Samdalri is like the madlibs of Kdrama. Someone draws a card (plot), and players toss out random words, names and places to fill in the blanks. For fun, someone throws in postcards (cinematography) and turns on the FM radio (soundtrack).
How they got A-List actors Shin Hyesun and Ji Changwook onboard is a mystery. Unfortunately, not even their masterful acting can keep the Samdalri sinking ship afloat.

I held on as long as I could
I love the male lead and like the female lead as well but her character makes mewant to turn my tv off. She did look down on those under her. I feel she did
treat people under her like they wasn't anything. Like she was all that and as
when she was out drinking with the girls her attitude was she's the shit and
the people that had been under her was nothing and she could talk to them
anyway she wanted. Even though that chick under her was trash I'm surprised
something like this hasn't happened to her long ago. Overall I really didn't like
the female leads character at all when she was in the big city and my dislike for
her got worse once she went home to the small town. All she did was hide and whine
about what happened to her instead of fighting. I mean damn she worked hard to get
where she was right? It took her mother to drag her out to set the record straight to all
the gossiping people around town and word of what her mother said quickly spread like
wild fire??♀️. Six eps in and this is definitely NOT a show that I would rewatch hell I'm struggling to
make it to the end of this. I won't go into any long details about what I think of this after giving it two more eps but I did at least hang in there half way through. I really wanted to stick this out because of the leads but I'm just not feeling it.

Check it out if you are fan of the leads other work
This drama is based on the writer that have Hi Bye Mama and directed by the director that have directed Forecasting Love and Weather and When the Camila Bloom, You can just tell by the photography and the vibe. If you watch those I have mentioned that you just know. There are two best friend who dated, but have feelings for each other still when Sam Dal work under the name Cho Eun Hye returned to her hometown after leaving years earlier to pursue her career as a photographer. While Yong Pil stayed behind and work as forecaster to protect the elders in his community. If you watch the drama you will know it is more than just those two, but it also touched on family, not succeeding and more. There is a love triangle I guess, but not really mostly it is family and friendship. The pace of the drama isn't my favorite and if you want to check it out for the actors you should do it and it might not be for everyone. The community keeps talking about our leads relationship and gossip. There is also a prominent death that affect everyone in the community and you'll see why if you check it. Overall, I would check it out if you are a fan of the actors or have seen work directed by director because it is not for everyone. I lost interest in the latest episode which is episode 14. I hope it give you a better understanding on the drama but these are my opinion.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

First Episode you made FL dislikableshe not only leave him, but also moved on from him dating random cheaters while he is still waiting, its just UNFAIR.
it not just leaving her boyfriend but looking down on him.
she would have never return to him if she wasn't catching abusing her own people
because she look down on others which make her most dislikable
Ji Chang Wook will portray very humble kind man while FL will be shown as someone who should not be with at all.
we all know that in the end girl who try to commit suicide will tell the world how Great this FL is and how she is wrong for getting bullied and look down upon by GREAT FL and then our Fl will get all her fame back like there is no other photographer in Korea to fulfil her left space.
JI CHANG WOOK why are you taking this kind of dumb roles, do you like playing Dumb roles because it takes no effort and will make easy Money ?

Beautiful story about love and growing
One of the best Kdrama that I have ever watched. If you are looking for a heartfelt and warm show to watch and unwind, it's for you!Bittersweet moments that i found so relatable to myself. Lines are so moving and touching, letting my tears drop when I watched the show and chill at dinner time.
The best part is that each episode has the moment that you are felt so relatable and touching, to feel laugh out loud, to feel hurt, to feel frustrated and repeat.
I love how the show are plotted and I love the show are trying to comfort and teach us the lessons of our life journey in this world.
A story about forgiving, finding yourself, family, love, independent, growing in a beautiful way.

A heart-warming drama
From the first few episodes, it became clear that this wasn't the typical revenge drama. This meant that no matter how much I wanted Bang Eun-Ju to suffer in the worst way for her wicked deeds, Sam-Dal's journey would take center stage - and what a journey it was. It was one of healing, re-discovery, friendship, family, and community. The best part is, that it wasn't just Sam-dal's journey. All the characters, in one way or another, had something they needed to heal from. Decades-long grief and resentment, anger, heartbreak, unrequited love, guilt, and the shame that comes with failed dreams. It was a richly rewarding experience for our characters as individuals and as parts of the close-knit Samdal-Ri community.One of my favorite things about this drama is that it showcases the importance of a supportive community, a home to return to whenever one gets weary of the drudgery that living often requires. Home is where you can come up for air, take a rest, and when you are recharged, go out to face the world again.
Everyone got the ending they deserved, a second chance to go at shelved dreams, to mend broken relationships, to fall in love. It was so wonderful. Bang Eun-Ju also got the ending she deserved, of course. The actors were spectacular; all the characters were memorable and evoke warm memories even after it's over - except Bang Eun-Ju. (JCW moved me to tears more than once with his powerful, emotional scenes. Yong-Pil was my favorite).
Overall, a very enjoyable drama.

Best lighthearted show for the start of 2024
Welcome to Samdal-ri was so refreshing and, although there are some frustrating characters once in a while, we see the character development and how life really comes to play out. The story was not something seen super often and the love story wasn’t over the top the MUSIC was amazing shoutout to DK from seventeen for making the song cover sound so good. The story makes me realize that the meaning of home and love and I really liked that. I would give this show a 10 but it’s more of a light show which is not my favourite genre which is my own preference. So despite my biases this show would be a 10.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
A SHOWSTOPPER! PURE GREATNESS!
As I’m being introduced to Korean actors, several have become favorites: Jang Gwang, Jeon Gook Hwan, Lee Min Ki, Yoo Ji Tae, Song Kang, Won Jin Ah, Lee Bo-Young, Ahn Eun Jin, Kim Ji-Won and many others, but the one I’ve come to adore, is Ji Chang-Wook. He has that wholesomeness of “boy next door,” charm and charisma! Above all, he’s a great actor-no matter the genre. Commanding my attention also, is Kim Mi Kyung. Whatever the role (generally a mom), she is captivating! After scrolling past “Welcome to Samdal-ri” numerous times, I decided to read its synopsis and noticed the list of actors. Chang-Wook and Mi-Kyung were listed! Although the title is not enthralling, it becomes apropos, as the show progresses. I give kudos to the screenwriter and director-a job well done; a bow to the casting agency that assembled this group of performers: SUPERB! Each role internalized and brilliantly delivered! Whether Lead, Support, or a Bit part, all were outstanding and deserving of awards! This show depicts camaraderie, friendship, fun, love, pain, loss, revival, and has a great OST. It is definitely worthy of your time, and must be considered for rewatching!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

WHAT A WAY TO START 2024.
Now, I might be slightly biased since I'm a huge fan of both main leads. Especially JCW...I Love the man, but this just maybe the best drama I've watched this year.Let me start with what I didn't like;
1. I like a good revenge story; I like seeing the tables turn on bullies and them getting a piece of their own pie; did it happen here? Yes, it did. Was it enough? No, it wasn't. I needed that woman to suffer a lot more, more backlash and hate from the same media she tried to manipulate.
The boyfriend too, I mean all the cheating ass got was vinegar and a spoiled kimchi bath...I needed more.
2. The ML's dad, the redemption arc was kinda fast and not deserved to some extent, but hey at least he gave his blessing.
3. Bu Sang Do...I don't know I just didn't like his entitlement; dude I know the heart wants what it wants but still...damn.
4. Why the hell didn't we get a Mansu side story???????????
5. Jin Dal's Inlaws...I know they got punished but I needed to see it.
6. With all this I think this drama was finished in haste and deserved a lot more than 16 episodes.
7. I needed all the people who turned their backs on Sam-Dal to quite frankly eat shit. Sorry excuses of humans.
What did I like? Buckle up, folks.
1. Ji Chang Wook; I don't know, I just love the guy. He could be the most macho man in a scene and still be cute and lovable. I like me a guy who can do both. I'm also obsessed with his walking style.
As for the acting, the guy never disappoints, we will take what he's dealt and serve it exceptionally, kudos to the casting team because if I were asked to describe JCW i'd point at Cho Yong-Pil...man owned that character, he delivered the best emotions. Who doesn't love a green flag who's a tad bit emotionally dramatic and while lot stubborn?
2. Shin Hye Sun; My first drama with her was Mr. Queen and I was excited about her character here and man ...did she deliver. Slightly unhinged; I mean who carries rotten kimchi just to fling it on someone? She played her character so well, too well that I believed her hometown was Jeju and that she was a real professional photographer.
3. KMK...any drama with this woman...I'm in. It was like a sequel to Healer watching her and JCW again. The woman puts her entire self into every character and I love to see it.
4. The supporting cast, the haenyos were for once nice ahjummas...some dramas just have annoying ones who meddle and create trouble. The Jeju friends was a nice add, I especially liked WKT who was a hoot; sure we needed him to shut up sometimes but the man was the best cupid if i ever saw one...he jumped the plot that would have otherwise dragged with a whole lot of secrets and miscommunications.
5. Sam-Dal and the relationship she has with her parents, her friends and especially her sisters who were a favourite. I can't believe i hated Jin-Dal in K2...that woman was mean! But here...i looked forward to every scene she was in esp with her 'husband' .The director said I want crazy and the woman was like hold my beer!
Lessons learnt;
1. Fear Knetz.
2. The Korean fanbase system has a whole lot of power than they should. Entire cooperations rely solely on public opinion which could be shifted at the drop of a hat.
3. It's sad and shocking to see how lives could be ruined by one person and their smartphone. How many people has this happened to and why does it continue to happen???????
Anyway, I'm giving this a couple of weeks before I come back to binge-watch it .
