Welcome to Waikiki 2 (2019)

Was very pleased to find it on Netflix finally!   As with other shows that have sequels, we get different views about whether Part 2 lives up to expectations or comes off worse than Part 1 and so on.  I found Part 2 as entertaining and crazy!   The leads The actors/characters were not equally entertaining, crazy and amusing, though.  Some people were raving about Kim Seon-ho but this is how I would rank them in terms of being funny (after all, this is a comedy). Lee Yi-kyung (Jun-ki) Kim Ye-won (Yu-ri) Shin Hyun-soo (Ki-bong) Kim Seon-ho (U-sik)  Moon Ga-young (Soo-yeon) Ahn So-hee (Jeong-eun) so pretty... adding some stardust to Waikiki This is not to say that Seon-ho didn’t act well.  It says that Yi-kyung, Ye-won, Hyun-soo and their characters are made for comedies.  Seon-ho’s character is more balanced – U-sik has funny parts but he also has many emotional, ‘normal’ scenes, and Seon-ho carries them off fine.  I found Ga-young/Soo-yeon very much like Lee Joo-woo playing Min-ah in
