Lee Yi Kyung <3 <3 <3
IT IS THE MOST HILARIOUS DRAMA THAT I'VE EVER WATCHED IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. OMG I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START. THE CAST, THE ACTING, THE SETTING, THE DIALOGUES, THE GENERAL AMBIENCE AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, LEE YI KYUNG AS LEE JUN KI AAHHH MY HEART. MY MOST FAVOURITE CHARACTER AND PART OF THE DRAMA IS HIM. I AM UNABLE TO UNDERSTAND WHY HE ISN'T GIVEN MAIN LEAD ROLES IN ROMANTIC, ACTION AND OTHER GENRES AS WELL. HE IS NOT JUST THE BEST COMEDY ACTOR BUT THE BEST OVERALL. HE IS SO HANDSOME, MANLY, CUTE, AND ALL THE THINGS WE WANT TO SEE IN THE LEAD OF A DRAMA. I ADORE HIM WITH ALL MY BEING. I LOVE YOU OPPA <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3Was this review helpful to you?
Unpopular Opinion: Season 2 is better than Season 1!
I belong to the minority here where I actually did not enjoy Season 1 and really avoided Season 2 based on that but as it turned out that Season 2 was better. I felt that this season was more balanced in terms of comedy and emotion and that all characters had their time to shine, were likeable and no one felt underdeveloped. I will admit it’s a slow start, but soon enough the characters warm up to you and you feel for them!In season 1 I really found the jokes kind of dumb, cringy, stupid and all over the place! Season 2 although it had some dumb, silly, slapstick type of jokes (and most of them repeated from Season 1), they weren’t as many and therefore did not make the show overwhelming and uncomfortable to watch.
As mentioned above this season had some great balance between comedy and some emotional scenes that made the characters feel more human and not cartoony like, like in season 1! At first you felt that some characters were left behind and not given enough time but as the show progresses everyone takes centre stage thus making all the characters more developed and more well-rounded than Season 1 characters. Especially Ki Bong and Yoo RI had such a great development, that they kind of stole the show.
If I had to comment on one thing I did not like, it would be that I would have like them to show the girls and their relationship more. They almost had no scenes all 3 of them together. Ohh, and the fact that it that the romance between Woo Shik and Soo Yeon took forever and it was resolved literally at the last 5 minutes of the drama.
So, If you are avoiding watching season 2 because you did not enjoy season 1 then I really suggest giving this a try!

I almost missed out on watching this drama because I didn’t like the idea of not having the same cast because I was truly attached to them but I watched it for Lee Ki Kyung (Joon Ki) and I’m honestly glad that I did. I thought five of the main characters were really funny and enjoyable to watch.
Only letdown for me was Kim Jung Eun. To me she was quite a pointless character who did nothing but sticking her oar into other people’s business - which for me made her super annoying! Some of her scenes were funny but nothing memorable.
I love the different type of feeling I got from watching this drama especially as there were some episodes that made me feel sad to the point of where I started to cry.
I’d will definitely be rewatching this especially when I need a bit of a pick me up.
I do recommend this drama because not only is it funny but it also tugged at the heart strings for me.

The performance are really top class from each and every characters. I personally like lejunki and frm the female leads i like jung euna,she was very cute and interesting through out the show. Its only for fun so there no point on looking the other factors. The finale 2 episodes are really good with a decent climax..
Overall i think everyone should give a try and you won't feel bad.

My favorite character number 1 was definitely Ki Bong. Then (of course) Yoo Ri, Joon Ki (and Rebecca).
Joon Ki was great as always, his laugh is still the best and with Jung Eun had an enjoyable story. Then there was Woo Shik and Soo Yeon. Even from the start, her character annoyed me so I wasn´t surprised that through whole drama I didn´t grow fond of her. However, I liked Woo Shik, I found their relationship story boring and skipped most of their scenes. And now my most beloved couple Ki Bong and Yoo Ri: they were so adorable, perfect, cute,... and I loved their ending.
In conclusion, this drama made me laugh, cry and adore Ki Bong & Yoo Ri couple, and I really liked it.

I liked the second one as well as the first
5/10 is my rating. This is a 2019 television comedic drama with 16, 60 minute, episodes.?Lee Joon-ki (Lee Yi-kyung) CEO of the Waikiki Guesthouse. He takes but roles in series and movies in a quest to become a famous actor like his father.
?Cha Woo-sik (Kim Seol-ho) One of Joon-ki's high school friends and an investor the Waikiki Guesthouse. He plays gigs while trying to get a break in the music world.
?Gook Gi-bong (Shin Hyun-so) A “farm league” baseball player who aspires to the majors. Another Joon-ki‘s high school friends and fellow investor in the guest house.
?Han Soo-yeon (Moon Ga-young) Joon-ki, Woo-sik and Gi-bong's first love. She was the dream girl in high school and everyone‘s first love. In high school they all confessed to her only to be rejected, except for Woo-sik who had a mysterious encounter with Soo-yeon in the past. Woo-sik is playing a gig a her wedding when it gets called off. With nowhere else to go, she winds up at the guest house. Coming from a formerly wealthy family who went bankrupt she is now having to work to support herself and is learning about life without wealth.
?Kim Jeong-eun (Aha So-hee) Like Joon-ki she dreams of becoming an actress. She works multiple part time jobs to make ends meet. She knows Joon-ki from the university and it seems he has let her stay there as she fell on hard times.
?Cha Yoo-ri (Kim Ye-won) practically raised her younger brother, Woo-sik. She is not above using manipulation and blackmail to get what she wants. Because if this, the others are a little afraid of her. She often has her friend and brother’s interest at heart but her methods can be unwelcome and brutal.
Spoiler ? This is loosely a sequel to the first one. The only character in common with the first is Joon-ki who it seems bought out his former friend. There is not a lot of direct reference to the characters from the first although there is mention they were all successful in their various endeavors and thus left the guest house. There is very little explanation as to why Joon-ki broke up with Chewbacca and it makes his presence in this series a bit awkward. The new cast is entertaining with many of the same elements that made the first season so enjoyable.

So Cute
Firstly I'd like to announce that even though it's considered the 2nd Waikiki you can still follow the general story without watching in order. There's a few references you'll better understand if you watch the first, first but either way you can make it through without any confusion. Since I watched them in order I gotta say I enjoyed 2's ending more than 1. They both are super duper cute though lol Anyway if you want something stupid funny look no further. Waikiki is basically the blooper of the k-drama world which is why I give it a pretty good re-watch value. It gives life lessons in the most humorous ways making it family friendly and may even pull at your heartstrings...Was this review helpful to you?

Menuntaskan drama ini cukup lama dan mereview sebagai bentuk tanggung jawab, hahahaEulachacha Waikiki 2 ini bagus, tapi bagus saja. Lucu, tapi ya lucu saja. Saya kurang merasakan sesuatu yang spesial padahal kalau boleh jujur, saya berharap bisa lebih dari Waikiki Season 1
Secara keseluruhan, lumayan buat hiburan. Tapi jika ingin sesuatu yang lain, mungkin belum mendapatkan ini di Eulachacha Waikiki 2

Love, Struggle reach dream and Supporting
Drama yang menceritakan percintaan, persahabatan dan perjuangan mengejar mimpi. Mereka saling support dengan cara mereka sendiri dan pastinya secara natural dengan cara-cara konyol yang tidak terbayangkan :D. Persahabatan SMA jun ki dengan Woo SHik dan Ki Bong memiliki cerita mereka tersendiri.Jun Ki, CEO Waikiki yang selalu membuat orang lain tertawa. Dia adalah actor yang berjuang untuk menjadi terkenal. Hahahaha ada scene dimana Jun Ki belajar menjadi pengemis untuk memerankan peran pengemisnya, ia juga rela menjadi bintang untuk anak kecil dan karena hal ini dia harus putus dengan kekasih idealnya. Scene terlucunya adalah ketika dia wasir dan tidak ingin memberitau siapapun agar tidak diejek. DIa melakukan hal-hal yang dilihat temannya seperti ingin membunuh diri. :D LOL. Jun Ki memiliki mobil yang sangat disayanginya yaitu Rebecca. Menurutku itu mobil ajaib yang bisa nyala dan mati sesuka hatinya :D
Di Setiap kekonyolan, jatuh dan bangunnya menjadi actor. Teman yang paling peduli dan perhatian padanya adalah Jung EUn, teman kampusnya yang memiliki passion di bidang acting. Jung Eun yang menemani Jun Ki ketika ia depresi setelah melepas perannya dan memutuskan berhenti acting.Jung EUn juga pernah menyukai Sunbae Jun Ki. Sayangnya ia adalah lelaki brengsek yang hampir meniduri Jug EUn. Jun ki yang berperan mendekatkan mereka merasa bertanggung jawab dan membela Jung Eun bahkan membuat sunbaenya bersujud dan minta maaf kepada Jung EUn. Padahal sunbae nya ini pewarta terkenal hahahhaa. Hal ini berkesan hingga membuat Jung EUn menyukai Jun Ki. Tapi, demi persahabatan mereka berdua. Jung EUn mengalah walaupun pada akhirnya merekapun berpacaran.
Salah satu sahabat Jun Ki adalah Ki Bong. Ki Bong itu bodoh dan tidak pintar dalam hal apapun yang dilakukannya. Ia adalah pemain bisbol yang berusaha masuk ke liga utama. untuk mencapai hal itu, ia menjodohkan sunbaenya dengan Yu Ri, Woo Shik unni dengan jaminan dia akan diajari cara bisbol yang dia inginkan. Demi Ki Bong pun, Yu RI menerimanya dan menahan untuk tidak memutuskannya karena cara tertawanya yang unik seperti keledai :D. Ki Bong sangat berusaha keras namun sebaliknya, ia malah melukai bahunya dan diapun harus berhenti dari bisbol. Hal itu membuatnya terpukul. Namun, kala itu perkataan Yu RI lah yang membuatnya semangat mencari pekerjaan lain. Oh ya, ada juga scene konyol ketika ia harus menjadi korban Jun KI untuk masuk kedalam program TV dan mendapatkan uang. Ketika di cuaca dingin, ia harus membuka bajunya dan dikelilingi oleh kipas angin, ia juga harus berendam di air dingin yang dikelilingi balok es dan makan es krim. Ki Bong juga pernah melakukan kesalahan fatal yang bodoh ketika ia masuk menjadi finalis program TV dan telah mendapatkan uang 400 juta. Namun, karena egonya yang ingin meneruskan permainan iapun gagal dan langsung kehilangan hadiahnya wkwkwk.
Yu Ri Unni, partner Ki Bong yang merupakan mantan chef hotel yang ahli dalam membuat spagghetii. Yu Ri sangat peduli dan baik kepada adiknya, Ia selalu meminta adiknya mempercayai idenya dan ketika Woo Shik terbujuk mempercayainya. Ia pun berujung memalukan dirinya sendiri. Yu Ri memiliki impian untuk membuka restorannya sendiri namun sayangnya toko yang diidamkannya terjual dan membuat Yu RI sangat sedih. Ki Bong pun menyemangati Yu Ri dengan membeli truk makanan dari hasil gaji terakhirnya. Ki Bong pun pada akhirnya membantu Yu Ri berjualan spaghetti di truk makanan itu. Hari pertama mereka mendapatkan untung membuat mereka sangat senang hingga terjadi hal-hal di luar batas dimana Yu RI tidur Bersama dengan Ki Bong. Karena hal ini, merekapun memutuskan berpacaran. Apalagi setelah tau Yu Ri hamil. Mereka berduapun menikah.
Woo Shik, adik Yu Ri merupakan sahabat dari Ki Bong dan Jun Ki semasa mereka SMA. Woo SHik adalah produser sekaligus guru Vokal. Ia memiliki keanehan dalam tubuhnya yaitu payudaranya berada di atas perut sehingga dikenal di TV sebagai Manusia Kambing dari Huam-Dong. Woo SHik juga pernah terpaksa berpacaran dengan Ibu pemilik Waikiki karena hutang mereka yang menumpuk apalagi secara mendadak ada komet yang jatuh dan merusak atap dan lantai di tempat mereka hahahahha. ada juga scene Woo SHik ketika terpaksa harus bekerja ketika dirinya sakit parah karena malu sebelumnya memarahi stafnya yang sakit. Namun dia menyangkal ketika oranglain menganggapnya sakit. Hingga ia pun melihat malaikat maut datang menjemputnya. wkwkwk :D. Woo SHik adalah laki-laki yang setia dengan cinta pertamanya, Soo Yeon. Soo Yeon juga merupakan cinta pertama Ki Bong dan Jun Ki. Namun, hanya Woo SHik yang masih setia hingga iapun rela menyanyi di hari pernikahan Soo Yeon. Ia juga rela mogok makan bahkan dikejar oleh mafia demi mendapat uang lebih untuk membantu Soo Yeon dan mencegah Soo Yeon dipecat karena kerjanya tidak becus. Woo SHik juga menjadi korban teman psikopat yang dijodohkan Soo Yeon. Walaupun ia ditolak Soo Yeon dan membuatnya mengeluarkan lagu galau. Namun, iapun ikhlas asal Soo Yeon Bahagia. Padahal Woo SHik menurutku Worth it banget!! Sedih melihatnya galau ☹
Woo SHik adalah cinta pertama Soo Yeon. Namun, karena salah paham mereka berpisah tanpa memiliki kesempatan mengungkapkan perasaan satu sama lain. Mereka bertemu Kembali di hari pernikahan Soo Yeon, Namun malapetaka terjadi secara mendadak. ayahnya bangkrut karena penipuan dan ia ditinggal tunangannya. Pernikahannya hancur dan diapun terdampar di mobil Jun Ki yang membawanya tinggal di Waikiki. Semenjak itu, Soo Yeon belajar hidup mandiri dari bekerja paruh waktu tapi ia selalu saja dipecat karena tidak dapat bekerja dengan benar. Saat itupun, Woo SHik selalu berusaha menghibur dan mensupportnya. Hingga akhirnya ia mulai terbiasa dan mendapat pekerjaan yang diinginkannya yaitu reporter. Karena ambisinya dengan pekerjaan ini, iapun juga menolak cinta Woo SHik. Namun, ketika ada anak didik Woo SHik yang mendekatinya iapun mulai menyadari perasaannya. Hal inipun membulatkan tekadnya untuk tinggal di Korea walaupun ayahnya mengajaknya tinggal di Amerika. Mereka berduapun akhirnya…………… membalas perasaan masing-masing. Finally penantian mereka berdua terbalaskan. OMAIGAT padahal saling suka susah banget nyatunya ya…..
Totally, YESS !! Aku lebih milih season 2 ini ketimbang yang pertama. Menurutku kali ini lebih lucu dan aku sangat menikmati cerita tanpa tujuan mengenai keseharian 3 sahabat ini. Sangat menghibur dan setiap ceritanya seperti punya kejutan dan pastinya gabisa ketebak akhirnya. Berharap banget ada season 3 nya tapi plis kali ini jangan ubah pemainnya Ki Bong, Woo SHik, Jun Ki KAJAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
