[HanCinema's Drama Review] "Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha" Episode 16
By William Schwartz | Published on
Gam-ri, the eldest lady of the core Gongjin cast, passed away peacefully in her sleep last episode. The first act of the finale is devoted to her funeral, which is actually a traditional Korean funeral, generally only practiced in the countryside these days. You might have heard that Koreans wear white when they die- well, that's only for traditional funerals. They wear black for modern funerals, which are far more common these days, although the style of dress is the same.
