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.
8/10A heartbreaking and solid psychological drama depicting the loneliness, the depression, the emotional turmoils…
I literally loved this drama until the last 1 minute, WHY OH WHY did the writer have to show them get back together I get that he's divorced already but after all that they went through together... I just wanted her to be stronger by herself. URGHHHH

To everyone reading this - DO NOT LIVE FOR ANOTHER PERSON. Be independent emotionally and financially. Learn to love yourself, and live for yourself because if you don't, you'll find yourself constantly stuck and clinging on to relationships and people who will only drain you and leave you empty.
8/10 A heartbreaking and solid psychological drama depicting the loneliness, the depression, the emotional turmoils and the heartbreak that comes with loving someone you shouldn't. It is scary how real this 23 year old drama was in portraying the complexity and messiness of modern relationships. Unless you're very lucky and have never had low self-esteem, or felt lonely, you will relate to Fujiwara Norika's fantastic performance as Akari, a woman who wanted to be loved and Tomita Yasuko's solid performance as a scorned wife who was driven crazy by the affair. Osawa Takao and Hiroshi Abe also delivered very sincere performances. It was not an easy watch, but the journey and character development was worth it. Highly recommend this for a mature audience.
Drama is about the ML getting revenge/justice for the death of his childhood friend. The FL is hired to stop him…
OOOOOH that sounds right up my alley! I am definitely gonna watch it once the drama has finished airing. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to explain the story :)
These are the ones I have watched from the 90s -
