Motel California: Things to Look Forward to in the Show!
The Plot
There is no denying that a plot like Motel California is something that we’ve seen quite a few times in recent years. Surely there are many who even compare it to Welcome to Samdal-ri, Love Next Door, and other shows. However, this Kdrama has something more and something different. While it does fall under the same childhood friend troupe, this show has been promising a more intense plot that is sure to throw us into a rollercoaster.
The Chemistry
Lee Se-young and Na In-woo’s chemistry is already shinning through the many teasers, posters, and other pictures that have been released of the show. There is no doubting that this a going to be a couple that is sure to win our hearts so how can we miss the opportunity to witness them together? Their chemistry is already overflowing when the show hasn’t even started, so we can see that the next few weeks are going to be of us shipping them all the way until the end of the show.
The Characters
While our lead couple’s chemistry is already intriguing us to no end, there is one more thing that has got us curious. The story of every character who is going to show up on screen is something we don’t want to miss. From the lead couple to every other character who is going to show up on screen holds a story and this has been teased on various occasion by the cast members and through the teasers. We can see an intriguing character development taking place for every one of the characters which only ignites our curiosity further.
The Teasers
Coming to the teasers that have been igniting our curiosity this whole time, we have to talk about what we think is going to happen in the story. The main couple is surely in love and in some scenes it also looks like they know of each other’s feelings. However, Lee Se-young’s decision to move out of town changes everything. Then comes a round of misunderstandings which even when cleared, there is something holding her back. Does it have to do with the funeral that she attends in the teaser which is somehow related to Na In-woo?
Meanwhile, what was the reason she left their hometown? Is it because of the tense relationship with her dad that stems from the gossip surrounding her hometown? The more we think about it, the more we see the negative effect the gossip in town has affected her. And while Na In-woo supports her like a silent lover, will she ever get the courage to turn back to him?
Bonus: The Cuteness
Yes, we’ve talked about the chemistry between Lee Se-young and Na In-woo, but no matter how much we talk about them it just isn’t enough. And their height difference only makes the couple cuter, which has been the talk among fans for quite a few days now. But they aren’t the only ones making us gush about the cuteness filling the air as the other cast members are also wooing hearts. Be it the child actors or the support cast, everyone is slowly creeping in our hearts. This is definitely going to get worse once the show begins, which only adds to our wait for the Kdrama!
