Bem-vindos a Waikiki (2018)

Eulachacha Waikiki (odd title) isn't one of your typical k dramas. It is a comedy that is followed by romance. The funny parts are plenty and they continue till the very last episode. Actually, the comedy part is quite solide, without overtrying it or making seriously silly jokes. Then there is the romance. The love stories were okay, but they were not the main focus of the drama, rightfully at least, as they weren't that great. In addition, the performances were nice and they helped with the comedy part of the drama. Finally, the 20 episode length weren't tiring and it helped with the development of the story. So, 8 out of 10.

This is one of the best romantic-comedy dramas I've seen. Every episode is hilarious but at the same time, it touches the issues people in their 20s face with a positive outlook. I love how the characters are individually weird and yet, they're all passionate with their dreams. The characters get themselves in messy situations a lot but I love how they got each other's back. This show also portrays the struggles of the people in their 20s and how they're all still trying to find their place in the world. They all know it's gonna be tough but they never stop doing little things to get closer to their dream and it's admirable. This is a feel-good series I recommend.

The first thing that came to my mind when I was watching this drama was “Who writes these things?”
Undeniably funny, there is no way you can sit through these performances and not be moved by their humor. A big bow to the screenwriters their talent is without effort but still so deep. This drama is the funniest I’ve ever watched and it’s not only the actors that make it funny but the storyline itself was really well thought of and handed to the audience for amusement only. If you’re having a bad day watch an episode of this you won’t regret it , you won’t even want to stop honestly this was really great about to go watch it again

This drama surprised me so much. Like the title says "Laughter in Waikiki",you're gonna laugh since the first episode to the last. This is not your typical romantic story. The comedy is way above the romance. And the cast fit the characters perfectly,they all had their flaws and unique characteristics that makes you fall in love with all of them.
I also wanna give a big thumbs up to the ost,everytime "Waikiki wonderlaaand" came up,i was turning my volume all the way to 100 lol. I even added the song to my spotify list,that's how much i loved it.

So i really recommend giving it a try,It's the perfect drama to watch when you want something refreshing and something to destress.

Slapstick comedy done right

We should keep in mind comedy is always subjective before starting this show. Personally, the comic element of the show mostly falls under slapstick or satirical forms, it may not be for everyone taste. So, instead of going through reviews i suggest give it a try and decide for yourself.

Coming to the story, 3 average young men with the help of their sister running a guest house while barely making their ends meet but still have sprit to pursue their dreams; throw a kid with single mother in to the equation and chaos starts. Most of times its about these 5 dealing their life struggles in comical way, there are some heart tugging moments too. Do watch it for entertainment not for story.

Acting wise, all the main cast has done good job capturing essence of their characters but it baby sol who steals the show with her cuteness for me. If you want to spend weekend at house or sick or just want to off your brain and enjoy TV; this show is definitely binge worthy to put a smile back on your face.

This drama is, hands down, one of the most beautiful dramas I have ever watched. When I said I wanted comedy, this was what I was looking for. It's ridiculously funny, and the way the characters screw themselves over is funny.
Story: (10) There was not one boring moment in this drama. Each and every moment made me laugh so hard. The storyline was also hilarious.
Acting/Cast: (10) I think the cast worked together very well. Their chemistry looked very real, and they all looked very close. Because of how seemingly close they seemed, the acting was also very entertaining to watch.
Music: (9) I don't really focus on music but there wasn't a moment where I felt that the music wasn't fitting.
Rewatch Value: (10) A fat ten, I think I will rewatch this drama a lot from now on. I have just finished this drama today, but I am already aching to rewatch it. Since there isn't much drama and much things for me to get salty over, I enjoy this drama.
Overall: (10) Overall, a 10. I think this drama is so fun, and if you're in a bad mood, it will definitely cheer you right up. It will make you laugh so hard that you'll start to cry. I hope everyone can enjoy this drama like I did!

A wholesome bundle of joy

This drama is purely nice. It was fun to watch, warmed my heart and made me LOL unlike any drama I have seen before. Needless to say, it is very wholesome.

It had me in tears just after maybe 10 minutes of watching; the scene where Dong-goo discovers Sol hidden on the bed in her little growth suit. He then has to change her diaper and for some reason expects her to be a boy. From this point on I knew this was gonna be good.

I loved all of the characters. Not one of them pissed me off. I liked how they all had their own little quirks i.e. Seo-jin growing a beard, and Yoon-ah rapping.

Don't even get me STARTED on Sol. She is the most cutest little squish I have ever seen!

Some of my favourite scenes were:
•When Dong-goo wants to kiss Yoon-ah but she is ticklish. Honestly she is so cute too!
•When Sol finally calls Dong-goo oppa
•When Soo-yah resists the anaesthetic and confesses to Doo-sik that she likes him

It was sometimes a bit meh in places (for example whenver Joon-ki would be on a different set), but for the most part it was entertaining and gripped me so I wanted to keep watching.

The sound effects and music made the show even funnier; although it could be quite serious and meaningful in parts.

Overall, it was very lighthearted, nice and easy to watch. Would recommend to anyone who's feeling down and needs to LOL.

Bah

I had high expectations for this drama, I read that it was one of the funniest of all kdramas. I watched it all and it's true, there are unforgettable scenes that make you laugh out loud. But they are the minority. Often the gags are repeated 3 times making them very boring for me. Many situations are absolutely obvious as well as the plot in general. The various characters are great (apart from one) but in the end the stories are nothing much. But, above all, I came to hate bong dong-goo. I couldn't stand him anymore at the end. how dare he think he can decide the lives of the women around him? And I couldn't stand all these women submitting to this psychopath. A toxic character that the drama justifies instead of condemning. In short there are very good things in this drama and things that are unbearable for me. I wouldn't watch it again but that's my subjective taste.

Not really my cup of tea

I like my reviews in bullet points...

What I liked
- The baby Sol is adorable
- The issues of the characters were sometimes relatable.

What I didn't like
- Very animated, repetitive, and "anime" type humor. At no point was I fully laughing because the humor wasn't really my thing: f.e., the beard joke became very redundant.
- Han Yoo Nah as a character is rather dull because she wasn't given much else than being a single mom and baking. The fact that she is a single mom is super cool, but I wish they would've explored that further.
- One of my biggest pet peeves is angry bossy male characters who act this way, especially towards women.
- This series was dragged out too much.
