Hear me out

After the last eps of check in hanyang multiple stuff are clear to me

Eun-ho (the prince) and Jae-on (Deok-su) have no chemistry

Trying to make in the futur (or maniuplating us ?) into thinking Jun-hwa is gonna be a vilain like its my girl and not youurs would be lazy writing

In my very humble opinion it would be better if Jae-on and Jun-hwa ended up together and it would be feel as lazy writing ?

Why ?

Their names litteraly complete each other

They have undeniable chemistry

Jun-hwa always protected Jae-on without pushing his feelings onto her and ostracizing her

It would make much more sense for Jae-on character, like you are telling me this girl that grew up pretending to be a man could easily fit into a crown-princess role ? And be happy ? Be so for real

He started falling for her when she was pretending to be a man

When he found out she was a girl he did not litteraly jump on her to kiss her two days after ?

Jun-hwa always respected Jae-on boundaries

Seol Mae Hwa aka Jae-on mother figure entrusted her to Jun-hwa not the prince

As kdrama watcher I know how to recognize them pusing the prince and jae-on agenda, like he appeared first, he saved her when drowning blah blah.. but it feels like such lazy writing...

I think it's time to grow out of those lazy writings plots

What's on right now

There is a crazy mix of Kdramas on right now and there are soooo many. Here are my current favourites. Trauma Code: Heroes on Call Netflix This one is my favourite. Ju Ji Hoon plays a crazy trauma surgeon who can do everything. Doesn’t matter that all of those specialties would take about 20 years PYG training, he can do them all! This show is a perfect mix of comedy, action, and revenge.…

Checked out the two new kdramas - Check in Hanyang and Namib.

Check is trying quite hard to be Sungkyunkwan Scandal the Walmart Edition. I did not care for it in the least - SKKS was unique in that amazing (and in retrospect cursed) cast but also I am sorry, our protags (including a prince doing so incognito) being hotel interns in Joseon is nuts and not the good kind. SKKS' story made sense. This is a drunk madlib.

If you want hotel-centric dramas for some bizarro reason, Hotelier and Hotel King are that way. And a period drama set in a period hotel that will not make you lose your marbles in The Secret Romantic Guesthouse, which does not have cross-dressing or a weirdly prestigious period hotel intern program, but actually has a coherent story that does not make my eyes roll out of my sockets.

Namib is surprisingly solid, even if not a genre that makes me rabid. But perhaps I should have known it would be good since Ryoeun tends to pick really really solid projects. I am rooting for his underdog character, I love seeing veterans like Go Hyun Jung and Yoon Sang Hyun (who is still sexy as fuck and rocking the stay at home dad thing MMMM.) Drawbacks are clearly no romance for anyone, GHJ's very noticeable plastic surgery (it's not distracting in the sense that her character could totally have some but it's distracting to look at), and the bizarro sock factory thing (why is GHJ so obsessed with buying her deaf son a sock factory? Also why are they treating a hearing disability that is at least partially addressed via hearing aids as if he's got a combo of quadriplegia, the plague, violent paranoid schizophrenia and ebola? Perhaps I am biased as a person with hearing issues myself but while I know Korea is not as at the forefront of disability acceptance as it could be, this is still a bit much.)

Next new drama to premiere is I think The Queen that Crowns, about Lee Bang Won's wife and I confess I have little hope. Wonkyung was an interesting historical personality, but 12 episodes is not promising, especially when they tease "adult only" versions on streaming, making me think that they are gonna replicate Queen Woo's boobs and blood over character and plot approach. When you take into account that Lee Bang Won has appeared in so many superior depictions already (even if not ones focusing on his queen), the desire to tolerate a mess is even less. I can always rewatch Six Flying Dragons (best proper sageuk ever, fight me!), My Country, King of Tears etc etc.

Check in Hanyang is just weird. I don't even think it knows what it wants to be. The hotel stuff is absurd and out of place; it feels more like a modern hotel in the Joseon era. I might give it a couple more episodes but I don't think I'll continue.

Once again with feeling: Jae-on and Eun-ho have zero chemistry 😊 their kiss looked extremely uncomfortable and awkward.

I still enjoy Check in Hanyang but not because of the FL/ML (awkward) romance (they are so flat, honestly) but because Jun-hwa went batshit crazy, red-flagging all over the place, and the only one who seems to have some kind of control over him is Jae-on.

Exactly my kind of ship. Let the crown prince do royal stuff and enjoy your life with that feral boyfriend of yours, Jun-hwa. With a little blodd splatter as a treat.

It would be so much more interesting to see Jun-haw and Jae-on find some shaky, common ground, kill that evil mastermind and maybe have some romance while they're at it. Their chemistry is delicious.

The Four Main Cast of Check In Hanyang Reunite in Tokyo… Park Jaechan Heads to Japan for a Fan Meeting

Singer-actor Park Jaechan is heading to Japan together with the “Haona Four.”

On April 26, Park Jaechan will host a fan meeting titled “Check In Hanyang Drama Fan Meeting in TOKYO Would You Check-In?” (hereafter “Would You Check-In?”) at Toyosu Fit in Tokyo, Japan.

“Would You Check-In?” is an event where the main cast of Channel A’s Check In Hanyang—which successfully concluded in February—gathers to meet local drama fans. All members of the “Haona Four” will attend to share behind-the-scenes stories related to the drama. The fan meeting will be held in two sessions.

Check In Hanyang is a youth romance historical drama that tells the thrilling growth story of young Joseon elites who join Yongcheonru, the largest guesthouse in Joseon where one can essentially buy their way into power.

Meanwhile, tickets for the fan meeting “Would You Check-In?” are available for purchase through the Japanese ticketing site Pia.

CHECK-IN HANYANG

GENRES: Historical, Comedy, Romance

SUMMARY: Revenge is sweet, but friendships are sweeter.

THIS SHOW HAS EVERYTHING: Hidden identities, entitled merchants, butterfly tattoos, childhood gambling, locked up ledgers, questionable kings, gratuitous greed, laundry, name-swapping, filial responsibility, masquerade smooching, harsh realities, home cooking, and blind love.

HOT TAKE: I wanted to love this show so much because I love Kim Ji Eun and every single one of her crazy-ass roles. There were a lot of reasons to love her but even more reasons to dislike the rest of everything else.

Bae In Hyuk has a great puppy-dog face, but I'm still searching for literally any acting depth or chemistry with any of his leading ladies. Jung Gun Joo's character went from green flag to neon red flag so fast it gave me whiplash. The main cast's rival, the spoiled rich innkeeper, was so comically entitled that I can't believe he made it to the last episode without tearing the whole place apart.

If you enjoy hidden gender identity dramas, especially historical ones, I suggest you find a way to just watch/rewatch Sungkyunkwan Scandal instead. It's just as groan-worthy, but at least you can save yourself several full episodes of laundry washing, room redecorating, and other mundane innkeeper chore montages.
