I thought that this drama was going to be horrible, but it's actually 100 times better than I expected. If you liked You're Beautiful, then you'll definitely enjoy this Japanese version. The Japanese series included most of the important and memorable scenes from the original series, so the episodes won't bore you. For the cast, I used to think that they're kind of strange, but you'll eventually like them and their acting is very acceptable (and they're actually newbies). This is one of my favorite Japanese dramas and it's really not that bad at all. In fact, it's awesome. The ending is especially awesome. I don't think you're going to be disappointed about the ending. The series is not that long (only 11 episodes), so I don't think it's going to bore you or make you wait really long for things to develop or get better. ^^
