Filled with gratitude and reflections

I always write reviews for dramas that bring a message with them and there is no exception with that one too.
First, before I share my reflections, I would like to bring attention to costumes, scenery and soundtrack that created a background for the plot and made the story feel somewhat more realistic and homey.
I've had many reflections while watching all of the episodes but I'll leave some that are the most important in my opinion:
- In this world of loneliness and individualism it is hard to remember about spending time with those who you love the most
- a simple moment of sharing a meal, rules in house that may seem silly, those moments turn into meaningful memories that last forever
- creating a bond with people through workplace makes you feel that work is not work anymore
- it is not the place that makes home lively, but people that are a part of that place
- a talk with anybody relieves feelings and let you see them clearly
In summary, I would say that I would recall those beautiful quotes when having a hard time and I recommend that drama for everybody to enhance the gratitude towards together time with people we love.

The show is special in many ways!

This series has a special place in my heart.

I'll start by appreciating the storyline. For me, it was an unexpected story, from what you normally see in kdramas: a countryside, village by the sea. What took my attention the most during the show was how well the stories of each villager were shown. The storyline itself wasn't only about main leads (their past, problems and feelings), but other people's lives mattered in the plot. Apart from other shows that I've watched, supporting characters weren't only "filling in" the plot with funny scenes or a quick refresh from the main leads. Each character had their own past that could be expressed during the show and their feelings were truly shown. They weren't the background of the storyline, they were the part of the life of main leads. Each villager somehow invaded decisions, feelings or their thinking. Even though that the supporting characters played a huge role, I did not feel that main leads weren't shown that much or their story was not the biggest plot. I was curious of others (besides the main leads) but did not wonder, when a love of both of them will show up.

Another matter that stroke me when watching "Hometown Cha Cha Cha" were my reflections after the last episode. I decided to leave them here, in case somebody will need it:
1. sometimes, when we struggle, we don't think about our loved ones. We don't show gratitude to them, forget about their love. Even a slight sign of love to the other person can change their decisions, even when it comes to their lives.
2. When we admire somebody that's far away from us: whether it's about the distance or interests, we are unable to see a person that is perfect for us, will give us comfort and love we need and what's the most important: it's near us.
3. Modesty and simplicity means happy life. You don't have to be rich or have a meaningful job to be happy and satisfied in life. The only thing that's needed is love.
4. Helping another person will benefit you someday.
5. We don't realize how we can loose everybody in one day. Even if it's not our fault that they left (no matter if they died or abandoned us), God will put trials on our way for us to realize that we should appreciate every single moment of our lives.

At last I'd like to talk about the actors' play. I could portret their emotions well. It was clearly seen that they're experiencing those feeling deep inside trying to do their best. The scenery and costumes were pleasant to the eye, were not too eye-catching, they were matching the style and pictured well the personality of the character.

Overall, I'd recommend show "Hometown Cha Cha Cha" for somebody who needs a rest from fast paced dramas, filled with negative emotions and enjoys a simple plot.
