-I tried watching it while flipping through channels but couldn't get interested. It's just not fun.
-It's just not fun at all...
-'Check-in Hanyang' is actually fun, though...
-I heard the production cost for this drama was 500 Billion KRW. It must be a huge loss. Did they manage to gain international viewers, though?
-The script is terrible, and the chemistry between the lead roles are not good enough to save it. It's a complete disaster.
-I tried to push through and watch it, but I couldn't... I'm just not curious about what happens...ㅜㅜ
-I'm really enjoying 'Check-in Hanyang'... The title is really annoying.
-Even if I don’t watch over the weekend, I usually leave a drama playing in the background as I do something else. However, every episode of this drama just keeps talking about sex, so I’ve completely stopped switching to tvN.
-How bad is it?? I can't believe a Gong Hyojin's drama would turn out like this.
-The script is bad, and the acting isn’t great either.
-Comparing this drama to 'Motel California' is disrespectful to 'Motel California.' 'Motel California' is a very calm and enjoyable drama.
-It can't get any worse than this now.
-Surprisingly, 'Check-in Hanyang' is more fun than this drama...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-I just don't like the way Gong Hyojin talks.
-I always rewatch 'Check-in Hanyang' and 'The Tale of Lady Ok' on Netflix after watching the live broadcasts. They're fun
