Interesting first episode. I Iike that we are in the same position as the lawyer team : we don't know if the client is guilty or not, but we want the lawyers to win.
I just checked the other dramas and movies they took part in, and realized they have so many in common and are…
Its GMMTV, a producing company, as well as an actor managing company. They use their actors in their dramas, and when a pairing is popular, they usually act together again.
Isn't it more about the translation? Japanese and Korean both use different ways of saying "I love you", but sometimes…
I don't know about what Korean drama you're talking about.
But "aishiteru" is rarely used. Simply, in today's world, it's a very "poetic" way to say "I love you".
If I use the example of a love confession, if someone used "aishiteru" to confess, I would be a little... Weirded out? Intimidated? Like it's ... Heavy. And a little weird to use it here.
"Suki" or "daisuki" are perfectly correct ways to say "I love you" in that case. And the person won't think you don't really love them, or not love them enough.
Anyway, for Korean people, they use "saranghae" for I love you. But using "joahae" is also not weird at all. It would be translated by "I like you" in English. But it's still a good way to express your love, even if you didn't actually use the word "love". And it could be translated to "I love you" depending on the context and intensity. 😊
It's pure fanservice for the original drama's watchers ^^ It's nice to see the old actors come back, nice to see Onizuka being an old guy but just as cool.
The story in itself is not good though. Not bad either. Just extremely bland, you can tell they just decided to do a GTO-like style, but without a shred of care into the actual enjoyment. There was absolutely nothing interesting expect for seeing the old cast.
I loved the show till like the 14th episode. the brother is the killer trope was a known cliche for many cop or…
.... Did I just... Get spoiled? I just wanted to see if the drama was good till the end, by reading a few non-spoil comments .... But did I just get spoiled?
There. Is. A. Spoiler. Button. Why. Don't. You. Use. It. USE IT PLEASE
Japan’s first school to teach law exclusively to women was established in 1929. The women gathered there had something about them that could not fit Japan of that era. Inotsume Torako (Ito Sairi) was one of these women. At the schoolhouse that people unkindly called the witches club, they studied law to pave their own way. In 1938, the country’s first female lawyers emerged from among the school’s graduates. As one of them, Torako attracted attention across Japan and was admired. Despite triumphantly coming out into the world as lawyers, the country soon plunged into war. Law should have allowed them to go out into the world, but the places where the law could be used were rapidly disappearing. Seven years later, Torako had lost everything after the devastation of the war. The only thing she could depend on to survive was the law that she had once learned. Making up her mind to become a judge, she works hard to set up a family court for children who had lost their parents in the war as well as for women who found themselves in a difficult position. She and her colleagues passionately attempt to help people with troubles that neither politics or economics can solve.
Plus they didn't end it on some stupid misunderstanding in the past which would call for a huge facepalm at the…
And I like he admits to his mistakes and apologizes. Though he does say "i was a kid", it's not "I was just a kid so forgive me", but more "I was a really stupid child, I hope you'll forgive the past me and date the adult I became. I am truly in love with you."
I wasn't sure at the beginning, fearing it would be a too simple, wannabe woke drama, but it was not. Yes, it…
I was surprised by Nakajima Sota, it was the first time I saw him, but he was really good. There are a lot of times when soft, gentle characters end up being played in a "feminine" way, especially if they're gay. But even when he was so much shorter than his male costars and so gentle, I always thought he was so "cool" and "handsome". Not "pretty". It's difficult to explain, but I liked that he didn't automatically think of going kind of "feminine" when he was tasked to play a gay, gentle, and soft young man.
The director seemed to want to avoid that way of thinking, too, with how much we see him running and in sports clothes. I like that they wanted to go a little away from that type of cliché. Without it being too "in our face".
The whole casting is perfect and really good. The comedy pays off, and the touching moments, too. I decided to watch the drama when I saw Jyo Kairi was doing it, and I was not disappointed. He was so natural I wonder how I'll heal from the fact I won't see him in those pretty clothes anymore. He suited them so much, and as a viewer, I could FEEL how more relaxed he was in them, contrary to the more "masculine" clothes he felt awkward in.
The only unrealistic thing about this drama is how everybody is surprised to see a "boy" in those clothes... I would never have guessed it was a man if I saw him in the street. I would just think "oh, a tall pretty girl".
The other unrealistic thing is that everybody is way too good to be true. But I did say it was a feel-good drama after all.

Yes, it was simple, but in a good way, without melo, without a real bad guy, following a hard-headed idiot who hurts people with his stupidity and decides to "update" his way of thinking, with the help of his new young gay friend. We follow a surprisingly big cast, with the family of the MC, the family of the "gay friend" & his lover, the Comiket group, the high school gyarus & the makeup girl, the baseball team, and the MC's company's work team. I thought at first, we would keep in the family, only following their little world, but I liked how open the drama is on their relationship. It made it impossible for the viewer to really feel bored. The whole ensemble is super-attaching, even the characters that I couldn't stomach at first. So much that I wanted more.
I loved how realistically "normal" everybody is, and how normal their problems are. It didn't try to be something it wasn't by being too complicated or with too many themes.
Recommended if you want a feel-good drama. The beginning is a little difficult because of how infuriating the MC is, but the payoff is 100% worth it.
They talk about it, but its not a romance drama.
