I have never wanted happiness for two characters more than I do for Minami and Sena.
This drama has some of the best acting I have seen out of the lifestyle romance genre. All of the characters felt very realistic and their decisions didn’t feel silly just to further the plot.I loved just how musical the entire show was. Dramatic moments were always supported by emotional 90s-early 2000s music that contributed to the atmosphere wonderfully. While the piano performances didn’t feel as intense as they could have, they way the bonded over their affection for the piano was moving.
The set design also played a part in this, as the character’s homes felt lived in, and not simply a set used for filming.
Multiple times through this show, my mouth was left agape as I was unable to comprehend how a seemingly low-budget 1990s J-Drama could convey more realistic relationships than most people can in their own lives.
