Not my favorite adaptation because I dont rly like Ninako or Ren casting. I dont feel the tension when they are together, maybe bc this Ren does not look at Ninako with longing and curiosity idk weird to me...
THIS WAS SO CUTEEEE, finished it and this is all I look for in romance, great acting and cute love story. Plus the mental health issues discussed were very interesting. 8/10 It was not perfect, the story feels a little plain like everything is fixed too easily and they are all such good people and it fails to explore some areas, for example Sosuke's background, his relationship with his father and cousin. You can also see the safe choice in the dynamics of the pâtissiers, in real life they would fight. You'd expect the leads to break but that does not happen and what they deliver is still pretty tame. In the end, the whole company board thing feels out of place, again because the conflict was not well built. Still, it's a super duper easy watch for me, I love Shun Oguri's acting and I've missed him in romcoms. If you liked this go and watch "Rich man, poor woman" with him and Satomi Ishihara.
I'm watching Wong kar-wai movies in chronological order, this one has been in my list for ages and I finally watched it. I'm sad it took me so long to watch it!!!! His movies are so romantic and melancholic, I LOVED IT. This ending enters my top three along with Before sunset. Superb!!!!!!
It's been a while since I've seen a Thai series that captivated me this much! Great story and acting. I got so emotional in this last ep, counting the minutes and realizing there wouldn't be enough time to get the ending. I hope we get to see more of them, I will hope for the best.
