The start of this drama had me excited for what was to come- I was let down. Any drama that features a cast of women friends with various personalities always peaks my interest (Golden Girls is my all time favorite show for a reason). My main gripe with this drama is that it turned from a great slice of life to a ridiculous unrealistic fluff piece.
Cast- an ensemble with actors and actresses I've seen before including Maryjun who I'm seriously digging as she just randomly ends up in dramas I watch. Mizuki- her character was annoying from the start but then it looked like she was maturing only to became unbearable again. Maryjun- her character actually had substance and the writer could have did more with it but they just glossed over it; damn shame. Reina- another actress that just pops up is dramas I'm watching but unlike Maryjun I don't really care for her. She always plays the damsel that needs to be saved by someone and it's really annoying; on the plus side, her character had a real cute wardrobe. Aya- loved her character from the jump. She was somewhat a believable character in that she wasn't perfect and didn't pretend to be but towards the end like everyone else she became a drama character instead of a real life one (if you get what I mean). Ryohei- he's like the male version of Reina, just randomly shows in dramas I'm watching and that his characters tend to be somewhat weak and not really reliable. Last but not least, Shunsuke- he was just straight up sexy lol no other words needed.
Overall even though I was disappointed, I still enjoyed the ride this drama provided and would still recommend it for a pretty decent rom/com.
