So Much Potential But No Follow Through

This drama seemed to not know which direction it wanted to go. It set up many different things while never fully expanding on the ideas presented leading to a rather disappointing and underwhelming show.

The first episode had me sobbing and so ready to watch a show about a woman in her 20's dealing with grief and finally finding herself outside of the oppressive society she had been a part of. Then episode 2 happened and all my hopes and dreams for this show were washed away. The grieving and growing process in a small seaside town would be more then enough to fill a show, but this show decided to completely throw away this idea to instead show everyone and their mother being rude to our main character for seemingly no reason, to act like our main characters grief and growing process never existed, and add in an unnecessary murder plot. Sure, there were cute moments, I especially liked the scenes when the four main characters would be hanging out together, like when they went on a trip together or had meals together. I also did like the more "romantic" scenes between the two main couples as well, but these things didn't have much to do with a plot and the plot is what was really lacking in this show.

Overall, this was not the worst thing I have ever watched and despite my low rating I don't fully feel like my time was wasted with this show, but what it's advertising and what it actually is, is two very different things and what it actually is, isn't very good.

I guess if I want to watch a show similar to Hometown Cha-cha-cha I should probably just go and watch Hometown Cha-cha-cha again.
