chillingindoors

Mari had dissociative identity disorder (DID). The twist is that there was no soul swapping at all.
She had various personalities. All of them were her, and in the end, she accepts herself when she comes to face with the truth, and all the personalities slowly merge into 1.
Komori was an actual person but she was able to get info on him because she stalked him, and thus slowly made an identity of Komori within her. Fumiko was also her, the young girl whose identity was changed by her mother. The popular Mari with a lot of friends was also her.
She was disgusted with her sexuality and thus she was able to disassociate and engage with Yori who she was into. She was also the one who fingered Komori because that was the part of her personality that was attempting to be a normal heterosexual.
This drama is a great depiction of what DID is; the confusion that comes with having so many identities living within you.

Oh yes, you should give some of these wonderful family dramas a try -

Kimi no Te ga Sasayaite Iru
The Rose
Ore no Ie no Hanashi
Oi Handsome!
Lupin no Musume

I've seen a lot of the dramas here, it's a great list!
Can't wait to check out the rest :)

I've seen all three.
OK will check out your list! Thank you <3

I do enjoy weekend dramas but I just couldn't get through this. Haha.. You have any recommendations for good weekend dramas, something like Smile, You or Gloria? Or anything with less frustrating characters, and more heartwarming and fun?

I salute your patience to finish this.
I had to drop it 14 episodes in because I found almost every character frustrating.

LMAO I couldn't agree more.
This is such a k drama. It doesn't even feel like a j drama.
Also I just don't understand the criticism J dramas keep getting. Go watch more, explore more before forming such a narrow view of J dramas.

NOW THAT'S HOW YOU DO A SECOND SEASON!
This show was such a bundle of joy filled with heartwarming and adorable moments of friendship, love and all the good things life has to offer. I say this again and again but only Japan could create something so beautiful and chaotic at the same time with all these characters. Hats off to the team for the stellar writing, editing and wonderful performances by all, especially Yoshida Kotaro who truly shined and made this the most entertaining season and show.
Haruta and Maki FOREVER <3
Highly highly recommend this drama for all.

The angst between the leads is SO SO GOOD it's driving the show, otherwise everything about is mediocre.. damn this brings back so many memories of how good K dramas actually were once upon a time.

I agree. I find the premise and character motivations weak.
But I am enjoying the angst between the leads and that's keeping me interested.

I meant he might be bisexual
I am not denying his relationship with the guy.
And chill.. I am not saying I'm right
You could be more respectful in your reply.

Why do I get the feeling that Do Han isn't gay, and might fall for Ah Jung?
I hope they don't make him bisexual.

Can't wait to watch this :)
Love our main leads, esp Yamada Ryosuke and Nomura Shuhei :)

damn I can't remember at all
sorry

If you liked this and Silent, I highly recommend these amazing dramas with sign language / characters who are deaf -

Aishiteiru to Ittekure

Rewatched this thanks to Netflix and boy, what a classic! <3
