We were barely making it on the day to day, but then suddenly a life-changing K-drama fell into our laps, and how much brighter life has been since then.
Premiered on the 28th of August 2021, new episodes every weekend, Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha told the love story about a village chief and a city dentist crossing paths, in the small town of Gongjin.
Taking us on a journey of laughter, pain, love and peace, we delved into the lives of every villager, and along the way, found healing within.
Broadcasting its final two episodes a couple days back, it would be an understatement to say just how much we're all going to miss our homcha weekends. Nevertheless, the one thing which will remain are the countless life lessons the show brought us.
1. Do not judge until you've walked a mile a minute in another's shoe
2. If you look closely happiness can be found all around you
3. Life can surprise you if you give it a chance
4. Love is love no matter the form
5. Perseverance always pays off
6. You'll never know if you never try
7. To overcome your demons, you have to first face them
8. It's okay to not be okay
9. Wait for what you deserve
10. Friendship means through thick and thin
Barely scratching the surface with everything we learnt, at least these 10 are ones to hold onto for always, and if you're lucky, then along the way, you may just find love in the process.
