Thanks, mate. You're a lifesaver :D

Someone posted on Feeds that it's going to be on WeTV

I became a fan of Yellow Magic Orchestra because of this drama, so thanks i guess ;p

I forgot just how wholesome an asadora can be. I love how it shows people's reverence toward nature that feels so lived-in, if it makes sense.

FYI, "asa" means morning in Japanese. And "dora" is dorama (drama) ;)

Just FYI, for Jdramas, sometimes the number of episodes is only announced later on, when the drama is airing, not at the start--which explains the sudden alteration, reflecting the new information we got from the broadcaster :)

My thoughts exactly. I looked up the screenwriter's past credits, and it does seem like she's written some pretty good dramas prior to this.

I hate to be so negative, but unless domestic viewers are loudly voicing their disapproval, they're not going to do anything about it. Maybe some token apology and taking it down from international streaming platforms, but that's it. (Case in point: What happened with The Man Who Dies To Live vs Joseon Exorcist.)

I always wondered why Kdramas feel so different these days, and I'm not just talking about production value and how everything looks slicker now. But you might've just given me a clarity about it: "Kdramas don't just gain something, they lose something too". And one of the things that is mostly lost these days is Kdramas "melodramatic authenticity".

And as Korean society and its drama market (domestic and global) changes, Kdramas will continue to change as well, so I guess you just have to accept it, for better or worse.

Sorry for being off tangent. I haven't watched Sisyphus so I can't really comment about it, but I do appreciate you for writing and sharing this article. Looking forward to your future output :)

1) Amazing photos, 2) Amazing article.

I always love it whenever people from all over the world share their stories about how they get into Kdramas, and this time it's even better because you also give us a glimpse about how your country got swept in the Korean wave as well.

Thanks for writing this :)

Hi, it's now available on Dramacool

Thank you, @Ebisuno. Fantastic write-up as always :)

Check out the calendar. It's not aired yet. It's aired every Friday at nine (local time) :)

Okay, check your PM

Have you managed to watch the film? I know where to download it if you still need it.

Please check your PM

Yay, it's finally published. I've been looking forward to this, tbh.

I think we've talked about this, but the thing with slice of life is that, for me at least, more than any other genre, it really requires you to be in the "mood". To be willing to immerse yourself in the story, without judgment, without expecting to be entertained, and to just see these characters as they are shown on the screen. Which is not always easy to do, especially since I'm so easily distracted these days.

Thank you for sharing this article *thumbs up*

Thank you for sharing this, @OldAnimeLady.

Speaking of which, I don't know if you can still change it, but Mori Nana's and Makita Aju's photos are switched?

Oh, sorry, I can't help with you with that . . . .
