Ushi ni Negai wo: Love & Farm

First time I watched this kind of dorama, I like the setting (farm, cow and village).. There are many familiar faces here, it will make u enjoy the show.

story's really simple but i love the pastoral feel to it. i did enjoy the scenarios and the camraderie between the students and the locals. and amongs the students as well. tamayama was great in it in a more subtle role. might be slow to some but it didn't bother me at all. life can be kinda slow if you live a farm and there's not much stuff going on around you. i do have an appreciation for that, at times.

One episode had a cheese making scene but all the episodes were pretty cheesy. The story takes place in farm country but the writers
brought all their city jdrama cliches with them. It was nice to see something that wasn't set in a city but the farm scenes were pretty fake.
I grew up on a farm and I found most of the scenes of day-to-day farming to be hilarious (unintentionally).
There were a few times when the sentimental scenes were effective and several characters were enjoyable so overall I
did find some enjoyment to be had from viewing. I also did
appreciate how the series discussed the blight of small farming
communities. I just wish the writers had spent some more time with real farmers to get more of the details correct.
