Add a Review read moreHow long 11 episodes Foreword The Korean drama Romance borrows the storyline from this drama. This serial rocked the whole of Japan because of the daring theme. Are you ready to accept this couple who dare to go through all odds to be together? But please be warned it is not a comedy as it is on a very serious issue. Story Wei Zhi is a high-school teacher. Her methods are boring as she only wants to get...

This was a great drama, very captivating...I do agree that this series is more suited for people who are more open-minded, others would not know how to appreciate it. For me, I don't think they did anything wrong either, they merely just gave in to 'forbidden love', so what? Should age really be such a big deal? Besides, if they really had just waited till Hikaru turned 18, then what would the purpose of making this series be then? Of course there was a purpose for how the story played out...otherwise this series could've easily just ended with 3 episodes.
And a little correction to sukting's review, this was NOT Hideaki's debut performance, he had actually acted in 4 series before this...it's just that this series was what made him popular, but he has been acting since he was 13.

I think this drama deserves 5/5. The story-line is very captivating. I don't think that they did anything wrong, really. Like the actress in the drama said "he just happens to be 17". This drama should have a caution sign saying "for open-minded people only". Because people who watch this drama with the idea that it's wrong and such won't get much enjoyment. This was a very, very good drama.
