En el camino hacia nuestros sueños muchas cosas pueden suceder, nos vemos entre la espada y la pared cuando se tratar de tomar las decisiones correctas, y muchas veces creemos hacer lo correcto por nuestro camino.

On the path to our dreams many things can happen, we find ourselves between a rock and a hard place when it comes to making the right decisions, and many times we believe we are doing the right thing on our path.

Lo más difícil es lograr ser fieles a nosotros mismos, muchas cosas se ponen en juego, y mil y un pensamientos se acumulan en nuestra mente, influyen la familia, los sueños, los objetivos y las circunstancias, pero lograr mantenernos fieles a nosotros mismos, es el acto más valiente que enfrentaremos día a día.

La vida es una montaña rusa como suelo decir, un día estamos arriba y otro estamos abajo, a veces las cosas pueden salir mal y dudaremos de si somos lo suficientemente buenos para salir de ello, otras veces, confiaremos y defenderemos a capa y espada nuestros sueños y nuestra vida, nos levantaremos de entre las cenizas y volveremos.

Life is a roller coaster as I often say, one day we are up and another day we are down, sometimes things can go wrong and we will doubt if we are good enough to get out of it, other times, we will trust and defend ourselves tooth and nail. dreams and our lives, we will rise from the ashes and return.

Tenía tiempo sin ver dramas como antes, honestamente sentía que tenía que dedicarles ese tiempo a cosas más "importantes" pero me dí cuenta de que los dramas lindos con historias románticas me relajan, así que mientras trabajo escucho alguno que ya haya visto antes y los fines de semana veo los capítulos estreno de los que están en emisión con mi mamá y mi hermana.

I hadn't watched dramas like before for a while, I honestly felt like I had to dedicate that time to more "important" things, but I realized that cute dramas with romantic stories relax me, so while I work I listen to some that I've already seen before and On weekends I watch the premiere episodes of those that are broadcast with my mother and my sister.

Si tienen la oportunidad de ver este drama no la desperdicien, es realmente bonito y lo disfrutaran. Tengan una linda semana amigos!!

If you have the opportunity to see this drama, don't waste it, it's really beautiful and you will enjoy it. Have a nice week friends!!

›Welcome to Samdal-ri || Series Review@jhymi827d
What happens when you see a movie that your absolute favourite actor, both male and female is starring in? And what’s better, they are the leads of the movie? The answer is, you calmly wait for all the parts to be out and then you binge the life out of them.

I’d said in my last review that after such a long while, I was back in my K-drama era. Even though the first series I watched on my return wasn’t up to expectation, it reignited my passion for Korean drama So while browsing through recent K-drama series, I saw that this one had been released already and screamed in happiness when I saw who were the stars in the movie.

Welcome to Samdal-ri (2024)

The series was aired between December of 2023 to January 2024. It has sixteen episodes and is directed by Cha Young-Hoon. A classic Korean drama. It stars Shin Hye-Sun as Cho Sam Dal and Ji Chang-Wook as Cho Young Pil and its place setting is Jeju Island.

Summary of the Series

The first episode begins with a little boy and girl from the native town of Jeju who are called upon to sing a song in what seems like a village festival. They are asked what their dreams are and while the little girl likens herself to a dragon that wants to leave the little stream(Jeju Island )to the mainland (Seoul), the boy contrarily states that his dream is to remain in that little stream. These kids are our stars Cho Sam Dal and Cho Young Pil.

There’s a bit of a bildungsroman plot to it as it shows a bit of their development from childhood to adulthood and true to their dreams, Sam Dal, or rather Cho Eun Hye as she is now referred to as, becomes a celebrity photographer in Seoul while Young Pil becomes the star weather forecaster still in Jeju Island. It’s been more than thirty years since that day and a lot has occurred, one of which includes the two childhood friends falling in love and dating and then their break up.

An unfortunate event occurs as an envious subordinate fakes a suicide attempt and frames Sam Dal for abuse. Sam Dal’s career life is turned upside down overnight and she becomes scorned by the world, forcing her to return to Jeju Island which she’d vowed never to return to. She’s mandated to face the people and events in her past as she seeks to find the old her. And through it all, there’s Cho Young Pil, watching and waiting. Amid all the odds against them, can their love triumph?

My Review and Rating

I think I was already biased before I watched this series so you can more or less count on subjectivity. But I’ll try my best to give my most accurate view on it.

First of which is, it’s a series by Shin Hye Sun and Ji Chang Wook, so of course it is perfection. Those two can never go wrong in my eyes and this was yet another reason to hold onto that belief. If you’ve watched Mr. Queen where Hye Sun was the star or Chang Wook’s K2, you’ll know that when it comes to role interpretation, these two would give it their all.

And they didn’t disappoint with this. Whether it was the scenes of happiness, sadness, angst, or pain, you could feel every second of it because they made you feel that. They did absolute justice to it so I didn’t feel like I do in some other films, that this could have been interpreted better, or this emotion could have been portrayed more naturally because everything about their acting, as well as that of the supporting characters, was nothing short of natural. Everyone played their roles and it was simply scintillating to watch.

Of course, they are the exaggerated affectations but this is mostly a K-drama thing and not specific to this particular series. Their actions didn’t match the age range they were portrayed under. Why would people nearing forty act this cheeky and shy? If you’re an avid watcher of K-drama, you would, like I did, still find it cute. But realistically speaking, it was a pain seeing how they acted like timid high schoolers instead of mature adults that they were.

The series progressed delightfully, shifting from the past to the present in a way that wasn’t confusing, thankfully. When it neared the ending, I became a bit nervous as most K-dramas lack that smooth ending that crystallizes a good movie. But I loved that all loose knots were tied and it ended beautifully, each person having their expected or unexpected end. The end to the villain in the series wasn’t enough, in my opinion, and that part of the movie fell flat to me.

However, the positives still outweighed the negatives by far, so it was more than a good watch for me. I’m giving Welcome to Samdal-ri a 4.7/5 rating. Plot, characters, ending...has a full check. Definitely a series worth watching. Kicking of feet is more than guaranteed.

K-dramas can be such a great way to relax and unwind, don't you think? They have a way of capturing our hearts and taking us on emotional journeys. After I finished binge-watching my last series "Beauty Inside", I was in the mood for something more relaxing. I wanted a show that wasn't too intense or action-packed. I just wanted something soft and easygoing. Then I found Welcome to Samdal-ri which I had started downloading right from the first day it aired which was on the 2nd of December, 2023 but I didn't actually get around to watching it until I had all the episodes. It's like I couldn't wait to have the complete set before diving into the series.( I don't think I can wait up to a week before watching the next episode. I rather wait till every episode is out😂).

Set in Jeju island, Welcome to Samdal-ri was written and directed by Kwon Hye-joo and Cha Young-hoon respectively. The drama consists of 16 episodes, each of which has a runtime of about 70 minutes long. The series tells the story of two childhood friends, Cho Yong-pil (Ji Chang-wook) and Cho Sam-dal (Shin Hye-sun).

Yong-pil, deeply affected by the loss of his mother due to a misguided weather report, resolves to become a weather forecaster in order to safeguard the elderly residents of his hometown. However, his unwavering dedication to accuracy and refusal to overlook misinformation leads to him being labeled as a tenacious troublemaker by others. Sam-dal on the other hand, driven by her aspirations of becoming a successful fashion photographer, makes the bold decision to relocate to Seoul. In pursuit of her dreams, she adopts the name Cho Eun-hye. She puts in a ton of effort as an assistant in the fashion photography industry for 8 long years. Eventually, she reaches the top of her game! But then, something happens and her whole photography career crumbles. That's heartbreaking, right? So, she goes back to her hometown of Samdal-ri, even though she always wanted to leave. And guess what? After all those years, she reconnects with Cho Yong-Pil, her childhood friend and ex-boyfriend. Even though something happened that caused them to drift apart, these two friends discover that their bond and love for each other are still as powerful as ever. It's incredible how some connections can withstand the test of time, isn't it? 😊.

The family's complicated relationships, which are revealed as the plot unfolds adds more humor and fun to the series. The dynamic between the sisters is particularly interesting, as they are both strong-willed and independent, yet they have very different approaches to life.

This show is such a refreshing and simple show. It has clear goals and characters that are so easy to root for. It's like you can't help but get invested in their stories. I loved the comedy scenes, I loved the romantic scenes between the two main leads. They both had excellent chemistry. I've always been a fan of Shin Hye-sun after watching her performance in Mr. Queen. She's a really really talented actress. To be very honest, the main reason why I started downloading this movie was because of the plot. I always had the feeling that the movie was going to be lit having Ji Chang Wook and Shin Hye-sun starring as lead actors in one movie. They are both very talented actors. I enjoyed every episode. Trust me when I say there was no boring episode. Everything in this series is perfectly linked and connected. It was perfect and I fully recommend it. Every part of the movie really held me down till the end. You should watch it too.

Rating: 10/10.
