Two Dramas in One – Captivating Beauty That Fades- My headline for the series in reviews.

I haven’t completely dismissed it as light entertainment for moments of boredom. Still, I do keep watching the series and commenting on each episode from my personal point of view—if you’ll allow me, of course. And if you’ll also allow me to express my opinion, that would be even better. I thank you, sir.

Don't waste your time.

Episode 6 shows that something bad is happening to Jdramas—In my opinion, they really went too far. This is a series intended for teenagers, and as far as I can remember, there were never scenes that degraded girls in this way. Honestly, it pains me to see this sickening trend.

The actress may not actually be a teenager, but she’s meant to represent teenage girls, and I see no justification for something like this to happen. I think there are already enough American films that fill that disturbing role of exploiting women for views.

It appears that Japanese society is becoming more open and eager for change—but there's a long way to go between teenagers and adult women. It's a very sad change.

A melodramatic story—the employee sent by the mother turns out to be the son she denied all those years.

Episode 1 was cute, but episode 2 really wasn’t great. Things move too fast, and the directing feels too childish—like the way the main character acts and how the scenes are shot. It’s a bit over the top. I guess if it had some humor, it might be forgivable, but it’s just not there.

I was waiting for episode 7, but it was a disappointment. It's a pretty cliché series, though at least there was some suspense up to episode 6.

This is called criticism — welcome to a reality where there are people besides you.

This disgust suddenly comes in waves across different shows at the same time.

It's not coincidental that this "BL" series has a higher budget than usual; it seems to be an attempt to attract BL fans to otherwise uninteresting shows.

The first two episodes were okay, cute, because the main character is full of life, attentive to others. But in episodes 3 and 4, the character becomes unbearable and the opposite of what he seemed to be in the first episodes.
The character pushes a classmate to start dating someone just so he can keep the friend he's in love with to himself.
This means he's acting out of personal interest without being attentive to his surroundings in any way. He also pushes him aggressively, with a complete lack of consideration and not a shade of self-awareness, which personally makes me disgusted by this character and it's unclear to me how anyone can like him.
I understand that everyone has different sides in reality, but this is too exaggerated for my personal taste. I will continue to watch and see if the series improves, but I find it hard to believe.

The story is essentially a remake of the 1950s American film Roman Holiday, which starred two of the greatest actors of all time. It's a must-see classic. The series, on the other hand, which is based on the same concept, doesn't even meet basic casting standards. The two actors are good, but not great. In the original film, it was a princess who escaped from the palace, but here it's about a famous Thai actor trying to escape the everyday obligations of work and responsibility... It's hard to compare, and it's simply unconvincing.

This applies not only to the change in characters. The clearest proof that the director doesn't know what he's doing is the bizarre moment when the supposedly famous character just skips down the street — it looks unnatural and awkward. I doubt even a film student would dare direct a scene like that.

It's hard to even find one person, so 3?!... Wow, I find it very hard to understand these people.

Delete your comments and accusations; they are unclear and unnecessary.

So why are you blaming him if it’s staged?

True

I haven’t watched it,Most of them are staged anyway, so take it with a grain of salt.

I watched the film today and really loved it. Although I found the ending disappointing, I still can’t help but love this movie. It’s one of those films that truly move you and make you feel deeply connected to the characters. It’s very nostalgic and offers a touching glimpse into old Japan. There’s simplicity, there’s authenticity—it’s a wonderful film.

Thanks to this website, I discovered it’s actually part of a film series, and I hope I’ll be able to find the rest. It feels like a collection of must-watch films.

Can you please send me a PMe with where you watched it?

I must watch this
