D19: Drama that Made Me Laugh.
It's the year I discovered #WelcomeToWaikiki, so absolutely that. And in a typical #kdrama, it somehow managed to have a great story with great character developments too.
If we're staying with 2025, #TyphoonFamily before it systematically destroyed me.

While I liked #WelcomeToWaikiki2 , I did not like it as much as the first #WelcomeToWaikiki .I finally finished the second one last night and can move on to something else. #KDrama
Text image on a peach-colored background. The text, in a white, slightly stylized font, reads: "“Welcome to Waikiki is more than just laughs. It’s a life lesson in resilience hidden inside an octopus suit. A must-watch for character growth lovers. Final score: 9/10.”"
A review breakdown with star ratings and scores out of 10 for different aspects of a piece of media (likely a movie, show, or game). The categories are "Story" (rated 4.5 out of 5 stars, 9.0/10), "Acting/Cast" (rated 4.5 out of 5 stars, 9.0/10), "Music" (rated 4.5 out of 5 stars, 9.0/10), "Rewatch Value" (rated 5 out of 5 stars, 10/10), and "Overall" (rated 4.75 out of 5 stars, 9.5/10). Below the overall rating, it says "Suggested overall: 9.5".
☕Verdict:
#WelcometoWaikiki may have been marketed as a slapstick young-adult comedy #kdrama, but what it delivered was a soul-soothing story of found family, emotional growth, and the kind of love that doesn’t always shout but shows up anyway.
A must-watch for character growth lovers.
9/10

Ep: 20
3 broke dreamers run a failing guesthouse in Itaewon. Then a baby shows up. Chaos, dreams, and accidental parenting ensue. Welcome to Waikiki is a masterclass in absurdity wrapped in a warm, heartfelt hug
#KDrama #Review🧵
Episode 20, finale.
If #WelcomeToWaikiki managed to wrap everything beautifully by the end of this episode, I dare say that it has accomplished such a character growth level that took #Friends 10 years to accomplish.
This is why I love when #KDrama concludes their story.
I was wrong. Jong-ki becoming the stalker of his own stalking fan because he never had a fan before is the quintessential #WelcomeToWaikiki experience 😂
#KDrama
Now if Soo-ah also confessed first to Doo-sik (which with this narrative trajectory is inevitable), that's 3 out of 3 FLs of this #kdrama confessing first to the ML counterparts.
#WelcomeToWaikiki really takes strong FL character and give them more agencies than I expected for a 2018 drama
Listen,
If it didn't take him all the way to episode 17 out of 20 to convince you to date him, he's just not that into you.

#WelcomeToWaikiki has been great so far that it even made me tolerate the love triangle trope that I usually really avoid.
But damn I think they overplayed this triangle card as it's getting boring. It's good that the other stories in it still carried the #kdrama.
I never watched any makjang before but I'm gonna assume this is an accurate representation of the experience 😅
#WelcomeToWaikiki #KDrama
Oh sure, end the episode with a confession and then don't show the next episode preview.

Episode 7.
This #kdrama really asked "what if you met your grade 6 first love again but she's the main lead for an ero-movie where you're the screenwriter?" 😂
#WelcomeToWaikiki
Ah there it is, the return of the ex-girlfriend to the guesthouse just as new romance blooms.
I'm usually really allergic to love triangle tropes, but I'm really invested with these guys now that I'm willing to give it a shot.

Episode 6, the second story.
Is probably the quintessential #WelcomeToWaikiki experience. Natural chaotic escalation for comedic effect but never seems too forced or grotesque.
With a nice balance of laughter and heart. Waikiki is just too good at balancing these.
#KDrama.
These guys keep getting into trouble that always started with a little white lies that just snowballed out of control. 😂
#WelcomeToWaikiki #KDrama
The length these guys go through to cheer up their "little sister"
Oh your majesty...😅
#WelcomeToWaikiki #KDrama
Yoon-ah might be the clumsiest amongst them all but she is sooooo mother-coded 😅

Why does it make me feel things? I just wanna laugh. 😑

The most “comedy only” shows I can think of are #GausElectronics #PegasusMarket and #WelcomeToWaikiki
13: “hilarious comedy”
This rec belongs to #WelcomeToWaikiki. Full-on comedies can be a little hard to take imo, but this drama has bits that *still* make me laugh when I think about them
