Lipstick

Tho it's not romantic, but the deep relationship between the leads is portrayed especially beautiful and unique, a bit ill-mannered, but kindest at heart, the two main female leads from both drama have both gone through a lot and matured a lot. they both are very reticent and choose to use the very fewest words required to express themselves.

One thing about both drama I APPRECIATE SO MUCH and CHERISHED IT while watching are the long Silent Moments where all you're exposed to hear is the ambient sound and heavy breathing (silent gazes in Lipstick).


I totally recommend BOTH!
Even tho they aren't anything alike in term of character development and story. My mister is a family drama while Lipstick is friendship. but they both are totally a HUMAN DRAMA.

Takenouchi plays an aquarium employee named Kengo, who seems ordinary at first glance but actually possesses a secret that he would sacrifice everything in order to protect. Meanwhile, Ueto plays Risa, a young woman working in the sex trade in order to pay off her brother's debt, though her situation has led her to contemplate suicide. These two characters, both full of despair, meet each other and end up entering a contract marriage purely for its benefits. However, as they overcome various troubles, their relationship begins turning into true love

Both are great dramas dealing with some troubled teens getting along with each other in a new environment (roommates in Age of Youth, cellmates in Lipstick).

In both drama , the characters have their own secrets and problems
slowly revealed throughout the drama.

and not to forget there is fighting between the girls sometimes.
and their care for each other is really great that makes you engulfed in the drama.
