"Welcome to Samdal-ri" is a drama that has been gaining a lot of praise for being healing and romantic. In Korea, the drama reached one of the best JTBC ratings with its final episode. Overseas, the drama is ranking worldwide on Netflix, receiving love from viewers across the globe.
Starring Ji ChangWook and Shin HaeSun, the drama tells the story ofย two childhood friends with an unfinished romance who reunited after a famous photographer faces a scandal and returns to her hometown in Jeju Island.
The story takes place in Jeju, and if you are a K-Drama lover, you would not miss that the characters use the Jeju dialect and not the standard Korean mostly used in K-Dramas. So the usual and basic words we recognize like "jinjja" or "wae" are not used, or at least not by the older characters in "Welcome to Samdal-ri". The younger generation who lived in Seoul uses less dialect compared to the older generation in the drama.
