Couldn't finish it
The concept seemed intriguing, but turned out being cringy and uncomfortable. There are plenty of male/female couples with a huge age gap, even teacher/student relationships in the real world. But Yoko's acting was too childish and at the same time too mature for her age...especially for someone who hasn't had much interaction with people in general. It makes one wonder if she learned about relationships from B-C grade romance novels. There's little shown that could realistically lead up to any kind of interest between a pesky kid (who happens to be 20) and a mature and independent woman. Faye was excellent in her portrayal of doubt, irritation, ambivalence, curiosity, attraction, composure, etc. By episode 2 of season 2, I was done. The gratuitous sex scenes became something I fast-forwarded. Couldn't bear to watch the drama anymore.
The topic is controversial, but it could have been done better. Just my 2 cents.
