Mary M @RT43818942 07/02/2024 Waiting for season 2. Watching it twice already See more 02/09/2022 The banter between the two and the casual way that they are recognized by the public make this a gem. Ok so I read the subtitles but it is so funny sometimes and you cannot predict what is going to happen next. Some of the drawn graphics are over the top sometimes but you can ignore those. The wonder at the simple things of life comes across as 100% genuine. I so much enjoyed this I can't wait for the next series. See more 01/24/2022 At first, I didn't like Hong Chul too much, but the show is so good and Hong Chul and Rain's chemistry really grow on me. Hong Chul "Hasting" and his Netflix obsession are so hilarious that eventually, I was enjoying his reaction in every single scene. I was also so looking forward to his Netflix items, his funny dressing styles as it was so surprisingly suitable and interesting to watch. The beautiful sceneries and beautiful film shoot of the food won't make you disappointed. I would say this is a one-of-kind show. Definitely recommend this show to everyone. Btw, the music playlist of this show is amazing!!! Can't wait for 2nd season See more 01/07/2022 Two very different people who appreciate their differences give the view a look at the beauty, the food and insight into the culture of South Korea. Admittedly, one of them is initially annoying but that soon dissipates as his exuberance grows on you and is kept contained by the other. This interesting pairing is fun to watch. Might even just make the view think about a trip to South Korea See more 12/28/2021 The sharing on Jeju scenic sights and cuisine were nice but Rain co-host was really a boot, all you hear is his very loud low overly hyper voice or shouting and expression in every scene and it comes to the point of rather turn off, he has no value add to the show, maybe another co-host can provide better narration will make the show more enticing See more 12/28/2021 So enjoyed the beautiful Korean cites and regions that were featured. Rain and Hongchul have an unbeatable chemistry on screen and I loved their BROMANCE. I loved the beautiful Korean cities and countryside that was featured. The soundtrack of this series is so impressive and I had to download it from Spotify. I hope for a season 2 and the opportunity to learn more of the incredible Korean culture and dishes. I give this series 2 thumbs up! See more Read all reviews
