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 I don't enjoy something I drop. To each his own

beautifully written review, definitely motivated me to check it out!

yes that's why I dropped season 1 :P

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.

Articles like that one is the reason I edit. I enjoyed it and look forward to reading more from you :D

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).

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.

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.

it's bee 3 years... don't remember sorry :(

I find it light enough and easy to watch. Only the first episode was heavy (backstory)

I didn't bother with Sanadamaru when I found out it was written by the same writer as Shinsengumi (also very inaccurate)

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.

I wonder if they'd be able to carry the craziness and the suspense in the remakes XD

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.

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.

If you're a fan of yamapi it's definitely worth checking it out for him. The drama itself was boring for me but I reaaally enjoyed his role here.

Yeah um, nothing really stands in this drama. Very underwhelming. I find the main couple very rigid and boring. The male coworkers are the worst, intrusive and controlling. The friends were okay but hardly anything special. But then there's our Kamisama. I would've rated the drama worse but he made it worth the watch for me ;)
