I'm in the US and Viu is not available stateside. And according to their website, it doesn't look like they're going to expand to here any time soon.

If it's following the original, then no. At least not from what I remember.

They just released the entire soundtrack for the show. Most of the songs are by Aaron Yan.

According to Wikipedia, he's Korean on his father's side, with his father being half Japanese and half Korean. His wife I believe is fully Japanese, which would mean his kids don't have a lot of Korean bloodline.

While you're waiting, I would highly suggest watching the original.

Absolutely loved the anime. Hopeful but skeptical that the live action will be just as good.

The movie isn't even out yet. It comes out July 22nd, 2022.

So Chizuru's voice actress for the anime just got announced to play a minor role in the live action drama. Worlds are colliding I guess?

Despite his Korean heritage, he doesn't talk about it much. He is very very proud of his Japanese heritage though. One of his daughters did express she wanted to learn Korean though.

They announced the second season of the anime around the same time they announced the drama version. Despite it being harem, seemed to me ML is heavily interested in Chizuru.

Mami (the blonde with short hair) is the ML's ex boyfriend who she broke up with but continues to essentially stalk him (in person and online) and be jealous of the girls he's seeing. Gets to the point where she aggressively flirts with him and asks for him back. I haven't read the manga nor started second season of the anime, but I do remember that he begins to have interest in Chizuru (the brunette with long hair) eventually. Though ML's eyes do wander to the other girls in the series. From what it looks like, doesn't seem this drama will add in the other girls (Ruka - the one with black short hair - or Sumi the one with long pink hair).

Did they? Then I stand corrected. It has been awhile since I watched it.

I actually don't think them deciding to apply after the show aired was a thing the show or production told them to do. It felt more of a decision they made together on their own. Because when you really think about it, having a wedding in of itself is great, but most of it is just for show. What really matters is having everything legally approved and official.

To be honest, them even making a live action adaptation is already milking things. The fact they announced the second season of the anime (which is going to air around the same time as the drama) is highly suspicious.

Yeah it wouldn't let me respond cause the app kept giving me some sort of error. Trying to fix it now.

Without spoiling too much, Mami's character isn't the greatest and so her voice actress as a result got sent a lot of threatening messages.

I'm looking forward to this, but not going to lie, I am going to feel so sorry for the actress that gets casted to play Mami.

May I ask where you watched it? From the information here, it doesn't look like it's released yet.

Little update: Motomi announced on her IG that she and Ryotaro just completed and had their marriage licenses approved and are still together. I think Wataru and Midori are also still together as well considering they said on the show that they'd apply for their marriage license after the show aired.

They restreamed it a couple weeks after but you had to pay for it.
