Still Hanging Out in California

These shows are very similar in spite of the period difference, one modern, the other Joseon era. In the first one, a crown prince with amnesia finds himself in a village where he doesn't quite fit in. In the second, a lady dentist who put her patient's welfare ahead of corporate profits finds herself exiled from Seoul to a small fishing village where she doesn't quite fit in. Both piss off the locals but later redeem themselves. Kim Seon-ho plays the second male lead in Prince and first lead in Hometown. In both, the hometown folks have a hard time respecting personal boundaries. Both shows reminded me of Doc Martin.
Here is a totally unrelated image. When I was a kid, one of my adult cousins had one of these. Except his was black.

This picture marks the day we rode on public transit again. The SFMuni bus was every bit as filthy as I remember them being. We wore masks, but it was the Geary line so we had to hang on for dear life. Used hand sanitizer after we got off. I used to have a lot more confidence in my immune system.
