Why did I watch it? Because after I watched Legal High, I began to like Masato Sakai, so I try it. And after one episode, I just love it.
Why do I love it? Because when I watched it I can’t skip it (I usually skip the part I don’t like), and I can’t skip it cause it’s too good to be skip. (The script writer must be a genius)
The story is kind a serious one, it’s about Hanzawa Naoki, an employee of a bank. He is a good brilliant employee but when someone wants to shift blame to him. He simply cannot forgive everybody that involve in it. And the brilliant story begins.
The cast is just amazing!!! And Masato Sakai is maybe born to be an actor, he just awesome.
And what’s the best is the story. You’ll really love Hanzawa Naoki although he’s a serious character, and his wife is funny, so the characters are well written.
If you want a well made Japanese drama, bored with romantic comedy and want something worth your time THAN you must watch Hanzawa Naoki.
And you’ll not be disappointed.

A Tale Of Samurai Cooking - A True Love Story

Its lacking detail, it’s about food but i think the food is just a plus one, and unfortunately the romance is a plus one too,,,, so the food and romance are just a side dish what’s the main dish?
That’s what I don’t like from this movie; I don’t know what it is really about. The story definitely more focus in the male lead and his past then his future but his character is somehow can’t make me love him. And what’s with the title “,,,,,, a true love story”, I wonder where the love story is.
BTW, if you think its might be good then just watch it. >___<

The story is really great!!! I always like the story that telling about the lead actor journey from a child until the end of story. It’s about a man who wants to protect his wife and family who’ll always support him. And with a lot of failure he simply wants to give up but he can’t.
The cast is just perfect. I simply can’t imagine another actor or actress who’ll act better than them in this movie.
This is a family drama and a perfect movie to watch it with family.

About how a child monk growing and knowing about what is life. this movie is on my paln to watch so long and i always wonder is it good or not, BUT just with 10 minutes this movie can stole my heart.
A really beautiful scenery with a really deep meaning story is what makes this movie one of my most favourite movie. the monk's acting is good, and the child actor is brilliant.
when you watch this movie you will realize how is life so beautiful and make you wonder what you'll do in your life.
this kind of movie will not disappointed you.

the story is great, about love that can happen to anyone, doesn't care about age and what the world will say. This is about an affair between a naive genius piano boy with a strong independent woman.
the story so good that my heart ache and pray that they will end together.
the different age is about 20 years old and i think its so big, in the beginning i will just try the first episode, if its good then i'll watch it and if its not i'll just watch other, BUT i fell in love with this drama after i watch it, this drama exceeding my expectation.
the music does not need to be asked is wonderful.
a really good romance drama.

the lead is a quite type so she doesn't have to many lines, but her acting is pretty good.
the story will tell about her being a super stubborn person and no one can stop her ( i dont like it about her but what can i do ) and in the end she always right, so the other will not like her in the beginning.
and the mystery in this drama is a litlle boring and not too shocking ( i think ),
if you like mystery drama without something dark you will like it, and if i can finish this you than you will.

The story is not really great but it’ll make you want to know what was really happen to this couple. And i cried for once when she told him about her past.
The cast is just as good as the story. The husband is really cute when with his wife. And the wife who just likes a robot had a really unique personality.
The music is good, and i really like the song that the wife always sings every episodes.

The story is a little bit different with Nodame Cantabile. And maybe cause its Korean drama that the story is much slower than Nodame. The main cast is amazing but maybe you’ll find some annoying supporting cast, I found some of them.
Because I don’t really understand music, so yeah it’s OK.
Want to rewatch it? Just rewatch Nodame cantabile then.

I really like watching a school life genre like this with lot of comedy in it.
I really like the story that tells us about the difference about boy and girl, Buddhist and catholic.
This drama has different story for each episodes from romance, friendship, family, etc. And i really enjoyed every of it.
The cast is just great, with my favorite actor and actress as the leading and the supporting actor is just as good.
And the ending was so cute!!!

The story is set in 1997, and the detail about what happened in that time is well made.
The story will make us wondering what really happen in the future of the lead, how will it really end? Who will finally with the female lead? So if your curiosity level is high probably you’ll probably finish this drama in a day. Not like me, because I’ve to wait per episode until it ends, T___T
And if the story is great, the next part for it to be a good drama is the cast....
Well I think it was the first time Jung Eunji became a lead character, and who cast her maybe a genius or just lucky. She really fit the character craziness really well. And with Seo Inguk as male character, it just perfect match!!
Another character is really good; I really like it when I realize that Eun Ji Won is actually a real idol which was really famous at that time.
Do you want a romantic comedy drama that worth your time?
Do you want to laugh out loud in the middle of the night while watching a drama?
Do you want to watch a romantic Comedy but not too cringe?
Then Reply 1997 is the best choice.

The story is really one of a kind, and i almost love it. The story from the writer past, about her mother and her son was really good.
The cast is good!! I like the chemistry between the writer and the ghostwriter.
At first i think the music at the beginning of the drama didn’t match well with the drama’s story but after a few episodes i began to like it.
And you’ll never disappoint with the ending.

the story is really good and touch my heart ( i cry in 2 last episodes ), with great acting from kimura takuya, other cast and the dogs ( i cry twice and both of them cause the acting of the dogs ), Brilliant dramas.
each of episode have their own story that will make you wonder what's next, and that's the best of this drama. and after watch all of this drama's episode make me realize that the dogs must be genius and they are the real lead actor from this drama.
this drama is really worth to watch,,, a beautiful story, with brilliant acting and wonderful scenery.

It’s like story inside a story, with a lot of character. But of course densha otoko and hermes are the main character.
The cast is just awesome; i recognize almost the entire cast. A lot of the cast for the small role is this movie now is the main role.
Music? I don’t have any complain.
Story? It’s a sweet cute pure romance from an otaku for a really nice woman.
Recommended movie for someone who likes romance genre.

It has great cast with great acting skills that will made you never skip any part, but maybe rewind it. The story made me wonder what was really happen to the lead character.
Lee Young-Ae as the lead character is such a surprised to me because she is a perfect actress to play this character. The character that is a beauty with an angelic face has to enter jail for something she didn’t do. So she made a plan to take revenge to a kidnapper who makes her life just like that now.
The music? Usually i don’t really realize the music in a movie, but the music in this movie is just awesome. It’s what made the movie complete.
And ofcourse i really like to rewatch it again someday because i already watch for the three times before i write this review.
Be careful not to watch it with your family!!! It has a lot of blood, some exposure and sex scene.
If you like and want to watch some bloody thirsty suspense movie this is the one you looking for.

I really like the story from the beginning with some scene from Tazza 1, from TOP still a child until he becomes one of the best gamblers. And of course there’ll be romance story.
The cast is good, with a few casts from Tazza 1. I love that TOP character is not someone with cold hearted personality, he just like someone with free spirit, that he’ll do anything for his love.
If you want to see TOP topless you better watch it.
If you already watch Tazza 1 so you maybe want to watch it too because i think the second one is better in story.
