You convinced me! I'll give it another try for sure since that sounds like my type of drama. Thanks.

I'll probably give it another shot, but is the story at least good? I care more about the plot than the actors.

Oh yes, a fellow fan! We're a rarity, so I usually add fans but you beat me to it haha. I might give Colorful Love another chance then since I remember not continuing it.

Episode 5: Not the brother-zone!
Poor dude. ..that's worse than a friend, but hey, you'll never know lol.

Yes, very understated outfit yet unique and pleasing to the eyes.

I thought episode 4 pretty much cemented that Kotori has no romantic feelings towards the fl, no? The scene where he decided to give the leads some space when they were playing around with each other after the perverted investor incident showed that he actually knows there's something going on between the two and even smiled afterwards.

Am I the only one attracted by the leads fashion here?

I like how their outfit could either be just casual and business casual at the same time. That mint ensemble from episode 4 with the short sleeve crop blazer paired with the green checkered bootcut pants is the type of outfit I would like to wear both at work and going out. Such a perfect outfit for spring and summer!

That's where I watched it. It's just the CGI is just low quality as if it was made in 2002.

I'm in the middle of the 1st episode, and the CGI is bad. The scenes are quite cringy. Maybe I'll skip to episode 2 lol.

Wah? That's the oddest question I saw in MDL lol.

I like it, but they get along too well. As if they're too polite for people who are supposed to be siblings living under one roof. I know this because my sister and I can never be like that lol.

Sure! I'll be happy to, but some of my recommendations are not going to cater to mainstream audience, so you might have to give them 2 or 3 episodes to see if you like them. Do tell me if you have a preferred genre, and I can narrow down or broaden the list:

1. Omameda Towako to Sannin no Motootto (very addicting)
2. Kikazaru Koi ni wa Riyuu ga Atte (perfect summer drama)
3. Koi Desu: Yankee-kun to Hakujou Garu
4. Remolove
5. Oi Handsome!
6. Neechan no Koibito
7. Tsuma, Shogakusei ni Naru

These ones are older than 2020 but worth the watch:
1. Nagi no Oitoma
2. Todome no Kiss
3. Quartet (all-time favorite)
4. Saikou no Rikon
5. Takane no Hana
6. Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu (very popular)
7. Kokoro no Kizu wo Iyasu to Iu Koto (based on a true story)

I'll stop here but I do have more than a decade experience when it comes to Jdoramas haha.

Maybe you're right. There are serious ones that are entertaining but I guess it's not the same case for this one.

Of course! Let me know what you think after watching them.

For those who are enjoying it, what exactly do you like about it? Because I like the cast but the story is not gripping for me after watching 2 episodes (well, I just mostly let it play in the background since I keep getting bored after a few minutes).

Agree. I see a lot of that type of comment in Jdoramas, and I'm pretty sure they're new to the Jdorama world. @JeanHanji Jdoramas actually have the top slice of life dramas even before Kdramas started producing the popular ones in that genre.

I've seen all of those except for Colorful Love, and they're definitely quality slice of life and romance Jdoramas. Omameda Towako (if you decided you like this type of drama, then try Quartet too as it has the same leads and great story) and Kikazaru are my top dramas. I was always anticipating the new episodes when they were still airing. I also want to recommend an oldie but goodie -- Love Shuffle. I rarely rewatch dramas but this one has been on repeat since I first saw it as a teen. You'll be surprised how many people from the cast you'll recognize.

I usually don't like trendy/popular dramas, but this one deserves the hype for me. Great performance, cinematography, and storytelling.

Today's episode can be summarized by singing this song: What doesn't kill you makes you stronger! Strongeeeer!

When your realize that you contact list is mostly full of numbers of acquaintances haha. Life. I'll be your MDL friend lol.
