Tugs at the heartstrings
Very few dramas can deliver such a thick plot and at the same time possess a lot of originality. This drama does both, and therefore it is not surprising so many people, including me, gave it such high remarks. The drama doesn't tread on just one single plot, but three or four, but doesn't confuse you by bringing them out all at once, but rather in single increments, and while one part of the story is taking place, another is developing in the background. Also, the drama doesn't leave anything unfinished, nor does it end it in a rush. I really like it when the drama ties everything in nicely and doesn't leave you wandering or questioning some of the plots. To top it off, it just has so many touching moments that it's hard not to like the drama nor the characters in there! A must see!Was this review helpful to you?
I think it's a drama like never before. The contents are easy to understand
I think it's a drama like never before. The contents are easy to understandYuichiro Sakuraba is cool. The family relationships are well depicted, there are comical scenes, and there are serious parts that I enjoyed.
I was impressed by the appearance of Yuichiro facing each and every one of them so that the whole family would accept their relationship, and the family gradually accepting them. Each person's character is clear, and it is made up of an exquisite balance. Yuichiro's "on" and "off" are the exact opposite, which is very interesting. You can also see the stupid couple with Sakura for the first time. It's the best work with laughter and tears!
It was fun to watch for the first time on the rebroadcast. Yuko Takeuchi was cute, and Kamiki was still small and cute.

Underrated J-drama for me
I just happened to miss Takeuchi Yuko and rewatch Mukodono. The plot is about secret marriage between idol and common girl but the most interesting part was actually tell the story about Sakura's family. Sakura's first sister who divorced and had teenager boy, Sakura's second sister who had child out of wedlock despite her perfect acadamy and Sakura's third Sister who is radio PR manager and become a mistress to his boss and also help to keep Yuichiro's secret marriage. There is no back story about Yuichiro beside his manager and his boss. The things that i liked to rewatch are they are giving any relation to Sakura and Yuichiro relationship journey. Everyone in this drama seems so realistic. The music was quite good Hitoribocchi no Haburashi and Opening song by Matsutoya Yumi are quite perfect for this drama. I quite like Nagase Tomoya chemistry with everyone especially with Shinohara Ryoko even they are playing in-laws the teasing dynamic was fun to watch (add his manager as trio).For romance, it was quite acceptable for me but not on steamy one just very pure love.
No dragged or rushed part in this drama and i almost cried at last episode when i was watching this, even after more than 10 years i still like this drama. One of best classic j-drama for me.
