While I enjoyed the the way she burnt the flowers her father sent, and that fake gunshot move she did at the end, I don't understand why they had to kill him. I don't mind that they didn't end up together. But they didn't have to kill him.. he was moving to another country anyway.

I AM THE FIRST VIEWER OMG!
That synopsis doesn't do justice to the movie. It was more than your typical rich girl meets poor guy story. The title is very appropriate, because you have a FL living within a very protected household but that shatters as the movie progresses due to certain events. I quite like the ending with the way you can see fire in her eyes; she changed. Don't watch this expecting a lot of romance. The focus appeared more to be on the FL's journey IMO, which I enjoyed. The acting was great too, esp the FL's father and FL. Both of them had great screen presence. Nice camera work as well.

Too much family drama, too many negative characters who I didn't like, leads don't communicate etc.
Do note there are very few lakorns I have enjoyed so yeah if you like lakorns, you may like this one.

I don’t think so (not that I remember). Do note that I dropped the drama so I’m not the best person to answer your question.

Welcome to MDL :)

You'll be happy to know that more people have been subbing since last year. Almost all the dramas last season (Jan - Mar 2021) got subbed. Majority of the dramas this season are being subbed as well :)

I completely agree with you. I teared up at that conversation because it moved me so much, and I felt so represented (for the lack of a better word). It definitely inspired me.

Couldn't agree more on J dramas; they always take so little & give you so much in return. They constantly draw me in, one after the other, for their how real & simple they are. Sakamato Yuji, especially, is a master of his art. He always knows how to write in such a way that you relate to & feel the pain of each character. Complex, intricate & fragile, yet simple.

Yes.

FYI Episode 5 has been subbed :)

Usually most fan subbers sub each week (at least for majority of the dramas I'm currently watching) but sometimes they can be slower due to personal circumstances. Blitz was unwell, thus the delay.

All I know is that now they have stopped removing credits because a lot of subbers dropped dramas in the past because they refuse to put the credits. A lot of the older dramas don't have credits on them.

Hassaku WHY?!
I definitely lost love for him in this episode. I really dislike it when people go into a relationship with someone knowing very well that they like another. It must have hurt Towako to be in such a one-sided relationship & to think she has a kid with him. Sigh.

Also Kagome. Go for it! I am so glad she started drawing again. Finally a character vocalizing that not wanting to be in a relationship doesn't have to stem from some kind of trauma or abnormality. There's nothing wrong with being lonely sometimes & one doesn't need to be in a relationship to take away that loneliness. We don't always have to run from loneliness. So much love and respect to Kagome for embracing that.

Towako is an awesome friend! I'd love to have a friend like her. YAY for female friendships :)

E4. Kagome is HANDS DOWN my favourite character in this drama. I freaking love her & teared up because I related to her so much. Her friendship with Towako is so precious & I want to see more of these two women & their friendship.
Sakamato Yuji knows how to hit you where it hurts. What a genius!
Gonna be repetitive here, but I really enjoy how they collaborate with a different rapper each week for the ending song, it is so so refreshing. I never skip it.

6.9 seriously?!
This was adorable through and through. A really entertaining and heartwarming drama with sweet and endearing characters. It made me laugh so much. There was not a single dull moment. The brothers may be overprotective, but they're not evil. I freaking LOVED this family and all the characters.
Don't judge based on the first two episodes. Watch it for what it is and you'll come to love and enjoy this simple sweet story.

Have you seen Stairway to Heaven? Shin Hye had scenes with Lee Wan the first few episodes (very similar to this one). The director saw their chemistry in that & casted them for this drama.

A news update for a J drama on MDL? That is so so rare. Thank you so much!!
I'm looking forward to this drama.

Hehe I can't stop thinking about how Karibe is going to face Aiko in E8

I don't trust previews anymore. E7 was so heartwarming & romantic KYAAAAAAAAAA *screaming at the end* (unlike the preview)

Same same. Literally whenever I think of Kira in my head, that background score just starts playing as well LMAO

Me too, I'd love to see more! Can't wait to see how they wrap this up.
