WELCOME TO WAIKIKI (2018)

Also: “Laughter in Waikiki”, “으라차차 와이키키” (watch on Viki)

Genre: comedy

Cast: Kim Junghyun (Time, Crash Landing on You), Lee Yikyung (Children of Nobody, Partners for Justice), Son Seungwon (Age of Youth 2, My Lawyer, Mr. Jo), Jung Insun (Psychopath Diary, My Secret Terrius), Ko Wonhee (Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency, Perfume), Lee Joowoo (Let’s Eat 3, The Running Mates: Human Rights)

Synopsis: Three very different young men – Dong Goo (Kim Jung Hyun), who dreams of becoming a film director, Joon Ki (Lee Yi Kyung), an eccentric actor who performs to make a living, and Doo Shik (Son Seung Won), a freelancer writer who fiddles around doing nothing most of the time - open a guest house named “Waikiki” in Itaewon, where many foreigners come to stay. Although they have no clue how to run it, they’re eager to earn money to pay for the production of their upcoming film. They are joined by Dong Goo (Kim Jung Hyun)’s younger sister, Seo Jin (Ko Won Hee), who actually manages the household in Waikiki, single mother Yoon Ah (Jung In Sun), who has made an unexpected entrance at the guest house with her baby; and Dong Goo (Kim Jung Hyun)’s ex-girlfriend Soo Ah (Lee Joo Woo).

Personal Opinion: I have very controversial opinions about this drama, and I’ll just be frank about them: I didn’t like Welcome to Waikiki. I love humour, but slapstick is not my jam at all, and slapstick is unfortunately the backbone of this show. The set-up of this show is incredibly original and fun, but the execution of it was just not my cup of tea. I didn’t even bother starting the second season, but who knows, maybe one day when I’m extra bored I’ll start it. We’ll see.

Overall rating: 6.5/10
