Legit crying on the last ep. Saigo was a great man. I wish all politicians and more people were like him. He was…
Before leaving Japan I had the honour of going to Kagoshima just to visit all those historical places. My time was very limited and it was crazy for me to do it but I'm so glad I did. Just gotta say after my last few days in Japan, I passed out 4 days straight XD
Kagoshima is really far. About a good 7 hours by Shinkansen from Tokyo, which makes me wonder how hard it was for him to be traveling back and forth at one point.
Typical j-dorama in every sense, even in the way it emotionally gets to you when you least expected. My favourite was episode 7, which really delves into human darkness and the philosophy of this drama.
If you mean the Aizawa gets electrocuted scene was over dramatic, I can see what you mean. But it is super rare…
No I meant the music was overdramatic. Like it didn't match the scenes most of the time.
I get they have their own story, but some of them were too childish, especially assuming everyone got it easier than she did, and saying hurtful things to others. It was out of place and uncalled for, AND unprofessional.
This article really impressed me! The details and the history, I really love how you added the analysis of what the movies represented in each era. I never gave a Godzilla movie a chance. You really changed my mind about it.
Anyways this sure was a great watch! Up to episode 14, I would've given it at least a 9, but just the way they suddenly "figured it out" didn't make sense. The ending was underwhelming. Overall still one of the better kdramas out there. What I like the most are the characterization and character development, always subtle and never forced, but there for the most part.
Was surprised to see it available to watch on the plane. I haven’t seen the 3rd season yet or the recent SP. Overall engaging. Overly sentimental and total mismatch of music. Most of it overly dramatic and all of it just out of place and not fitting for the show. Our main cast has grown generally which is nice to see but the younger ones are just annoying (unreasonable at times).
Perhaps one of the most realistic portrayal of love in any Japanese drama. There's no he's the only one for me,…
The cast of this drama sure looks amazing, but not sure if I'll enjoy it. I especially miss watching Matsuda Ruihei.
It's funny my view of romance in the past was similar to yours. Didn't like the whole cheesiness and people not capable of moving on. After having my experience in real life, I've come to believe in the cheesiness XD But somehow I can't stand watching romance drama even worse than before. I've become waaayy too judgemental and a much worse person in that regard. So I stay away.
Tried watching this purely for Ldw. Had to drop it. Just like Stranger, this not my type of drama in the slightest.…
First time I watch something from this writer, but I'm loving it. I can see how it wouldn't appeal to the typical KDrama viewers. I agree in a way it's dry, but very much on point, especially when it comes to our modern corporate world. Jo Seung Woo is definitely the highlight of the drama for me, even though I started it for Lee Dong Wook.
T_T Its too shocking. He's one of those actors you get used to seeing in many dramas and feel they will always be there, and always welcome their presence.
It's a typical drama in that everything is presented in an "elementary" way, with the lesson of the day and all. However, it does showcase many problems in Japanese society today, some addressed, others presented. Some characters are a bit much, but all more or less controlled, and some nice genuine moments.
Am I the only one who is so anoyed by the mother in this drama?
Nop she's a control freak. I like the actress she's great but the character is terrible. Okay not terrible you can definitely see her good side but she had a terrible side.
