Great article. I do find them somewhat disturbing but that's the mother in me. But surprisingly some are done well and reduces my icky feeling. I've only seen Doctors and You Taught Me (where I wanted to wring Emi's characters neck)!Of the others, hated Big and loved Journey of Flowers. I'd recommend P & JK movie!
I was bored with this remake. I only finished for LJK. MCW bored me even more. Dang, I'm so disappointed but really, they had tremendous shoes to fills!
Cute article! If I wasn't already enamoured with this drama and the acting of the leads, this would have me watching! Kahogo has never been annoying to me! I love her interactions with Hajime who's life experiences has been the total opposite of hers. Besides Izumi, her mother, the only person that has annoyed me would definitely be her cousin! This is definitely the romcom for the season!
Thi is why I like JDramas! They constantly have these dramas that remind you that women in their 30s and even 40s are just as beautiful!! Not just relegated to playing just someone's mother!
