I watched this religiously for a few weeks and then put it on hold. Not because it wasn't good - the acting was decent enough, the story line was OK but it didn't bring anything too new. The story follows two people who find themselves living together after a mix up with a landlady. It is basically just the story of them living together and the problems that brings and what happens. This mix up is basically the main problem and part to the drama.
I believe it was casted well for the characters they wanted to create. Personally, I dislike the I-have-no-feelings-but-I-am-attractive male characters, which is presumably the route they wanted to have Uehara have. To think about this, Shiraishi did well. It is a similar thing with the female lead, where the character is relatively over-the-top, but it is quite clear this was the aim so it is not a problem. If these are the sort of characters you enjoy to follow, then this drama is very much something you should watch. I know when I first watched this, I really enjoyed these sorts of characters.
The music was quite repetitive, but personally I do not believe overdone. It wasn't like most dramas where they have an overplayed sad song for all sad situations. This makes it quite good and bareable.
I don't believe it has a big rewatch value, but it I will certainly watch the sequel.
