I understand the blocks in their relationship - basically yes, his wife was in their daughter's body.... but it WAS their daughter's BODY; genetically it was wrong on a lot of levels. Therefore there was no way for them to be physically together as a couple.
However, I think Heisuke should've been honest and let Naoko move on after he told her that there was no possible way for them to be together as a couple. The way he ended up doing it was hurtful and wrong.
As to those saying Naoko cheated on Heisuke, I don't agree - she was stuck in her daughter's body and there was no way for them to be a happy couple because, to everyone who knew them, he would've been seen to be having a relationship with his biological daughter - still taboo just about everywhere and for very good reasons.
Hey Jake, that's what I was told by a Chinese pal - the censors were responding to accusations that too many…
Oh absolutely - the music, the story, the chenistry between the leads.....PERFECTION. The new one of series 2, Right or Wrong, is also really, really good. A lot of affection, touching, hugging - not a lot of passion. But it was still good as a lot of couples are very touchy feely (like me and my husband) and not 24/7 passion.
Just LOVE those stories - though, I didn't really My Hero; it was just a bit 'm'eh' for me. :)
We, Filipinos tend to speak English and our language which is Tagalog simultaneously. If you will try to watch…
Shuurei -- I have to say I find it hard to learn; I usually listen to the speaker and learn the easier words like okay, hello, etc and then work out others from vocal inflections. It takes a lot of concentration so finding bits of English in there really throws me. But I do love the Filipino language on its own. :)
There's a Filipino couple that I love - ummm, they're older (probably in their 30s-40s) and always star together. The most recent film I saw them in was Finally Found Someone - I LOVE them.....their movies are such feel good romance dramas. :)
Why would the ending change from the original? It was a webtoon first, then a drama and now a movie. What they…
Thanks for that - I hadn't been sure about it as a lot of people were a bit sniffy over it, but I'll definitely move it closer to the top of my 'must watch' list. :)

The original drama ended up being very open and there was no real closure. I agree a second season of the original would've worked better - but if this has closure I'll settle for it.

Athena Ayawo -- I completely agree. I'm straight but I'm horrified at the way the LGBT community suffer in China - the same with Russia. China markets itself as this forward thinking, progressive country - but that should be ALL of it...NOT just tech, etc. It's a shame because, although I know how much risk the artistic community takes making the BL stories, I just can't watch the Chinese ones now....they're so depressing.
Plus, often knowing the novel's, etc had happy endings, make the tragic ones filmed all the more infuriating. To me there is no difference between two people finding their soulmates and wanting to be with them - so what if one of those couples are the same gender?! These days I tend to watch Thai and Taiwanese BL, then Japanese (in that order) as they always end happily the most.
Oh yay, yet MORE tussles with SLS because I've yet to watch a drama with Dilraba and Vin where she HASN'T fired him so far into the 'Friend Zone' even a black ops team AND the SAS could find him.
I think it was only because of all the graphic blood in some of the scenes - it shows the fallout from war VERY graphically; mangled legs, limbs missing, internal organs spilling out and all done very convincingly (so lots of blood, guts and gore). I think that's why it got the R rating, there was certainly no other reason for it.

These are all just my opinions though..... :)
