I was so damn excited to watch this but now I'm not going to watch it. Editing a main cast member out screams disaster. Also, YAH should be given the apt punishment for breaching the law, but he didn't do anything that justifies cancelling him. Like seriously bullies, murderers, rapists etc run scott free and return to the screen, but he can't because he consumed drugs?!
I will boycott South Korean cinema if this man doesn't make a comeback. Seriously it's not like he murdered , raped or assaulted someone. He consumed the drugs for himself. I get that he breached the laws of the land, so punish him and get over with it. Why should he not be able to make a livelihood because of that? Also he is literally the best, if not one of the best actors from South Korea. It's such a shame to lose the talent he has.
I actually appreciate how selfish and flawed all 3 leads are. Maybe I'm growing older but I enjoy these complicated / messy plots over the usual fluff.
The more I watch this man's works, the more I am amazed by his ability to write stories with the perfect balance of comedy, action, romance and heartbreak. A master of his craft, seriously.
"I am not Korean, Japanese. I am a tree without roots." Action, romance, comedy, social commentary all rolled in one; this was just not what I expected. What a fantastic coming-of-age + slice of life dealing with some seriously deep and hard topics. As someone whose struggled with my identity all my life, this hit hard. Kobuzuka Yosuke never disappoints. Of course, this movie wouldn't have been possible without the master Kudo Kankuro, who just knows how to create the perfect balance of comedy, action, romance and heartbreak in every project.
Can't recommend it enough.

Thank you for taking the trouble to re-share it with me :)

They aired 1 episode per year, from 1997-2001.
It's a MUST WATCH :)
I can't seem to find it anywhere.
These are the ones I have watched from the 90s -
