It was ... nice. I love drama's like this. the one where the younger BOY falls in love with the older WOMAN. Yes, I love these types. I may sound like an old-housewife, but I'm not. :)) But I honestly think that the role of Okamura wasn't best for Fujiki. Dont get me wrong, he was good, but not good enough. Well, not good for my tastes of course.
I give it a positive 9, since it was cheesy-ish.
Finally, a strong female role!
9 / 10

When I first started watching this drama I was thinking "oh no, another arafo drama", where the woman is older, single, and can't get married. I was therefore pleasantly surprised that the arafo female was a strong woman who could have gotten married, but wouldn't settle for just anyone.
I'm really glad Amami Yuki got an award for her role as Ogata Satoko. She played the strong, independent female character perfectly. And I'm really glad that her counterpart was played by Fujiki Naohito. He's never really stood out for me in the many dramas I have seen him in, but he was favourite in this show.
It really is true that the older you are, the better you get, because the supporting cast was amazing. Everything/one just clicked, and the flow of the story was very nice.
I was very pleased with the ending, because the writers didn't "sell out". The character of Satako remained consistent and found this endearing.
I definitely recommend this drama.
