A very wonderful drama indeed but i think the plot written above is inaccurate from the drama itself. He did not sell an organ or what.

Je suis deja fan fan de la serie! Je viens de voir les 4 premiers épisodes et j'attend la suite avec impatiente.
Le petit Waku est formidable,du haut de son age je trouve qu'il joue bien.
Tres émouvante histoire on s'y accroche des le début.
Ps: Prévoir des mouchoirs
