Watching this each week before going to bed felt like therapy for my soul. A must watch for anybody that needs a break from their complex daily lives & wants a simple, wholesome story of love between a man and his cat.
Yes, it is a very peaceful drama. Also be prepared to feel hungry when you watch it :)
You should also check out Mi Wo Tsukushi Ryoricho. Another slice of life drama featuring food. The FL also teaches you how to cook each dish at the end of each episode :)
I've never been able to get through a JDorama before. I love many Japanese films, but the TV hasn't really resonated…
Some other slice of life J dramas I would recommend:
Nijiro Karute Mi Wo Tsukushi Ryoricho Osozaki no Himawari Bread and Soup and Cat Weather Juhan Shuttai! Kokoro no Kizu wo Iyasu to Iu Koto Nagi's Long Vacation Saka no Tochu no Ie Tenno no Ryoriban Uchi No Musume Wa Kareshi Ga Dekinai! Takane No Hana Family's Form Dr. Koto Shinryojo
THANK YOU for this article. I've seen very few slice of life dramas from countries other than Japan, who for me are the champions of the slice of life genre. I will definitely check the Korean ones you recommended.

I don't know if it's Kuroki Haru or the characters she plays (or both) but there's always this sincerity about her characters that make you want to root for her. This was no exception. As always, I loved her character so much. What a heartwarming and feel good drama. Highly recommended!
Been waiting for this so long really cool idea for story who cares about if true just love stories with seniors…
I understand only 10% haha so I didn't bother watching it raw. Even without watching it, I am sure it must be good. Japanese are best at slice of life & presenting real emotions.
can you believe she's 14 like dude she looks older than her age lol.
Yeah maybe she's a good actress. Afterall my opinion is only based on 1 drama.
I heard a lot of negative feedback about Memories of the Alhambra so I didn't watch it (even though I've seen most of Park Shin Hye & Hyun Bin's works).. now I feel tempted to check it out.
*adds to ever-increasing watchlist*
Not a problem with me because I wasn't here for the romance..
Discovered so many thanks to your watchlist!
