Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©

13 years after her disappearance, Yuria (Nanami Sakuraba) returns home. She now looks like a 26-year-old woman, but her mental development seems to have stopped at the age of 13 when she disappeared.

After her disappearance, her family broke up. For Yuria's sake, her mother Asami (Yuka Itaya), father Soichi (Satoshi Jinbo) and younger sister Chiho (Ruka Ishikawa) act like they are still a close family.

Yuria tells Detective Toshihiko (Sho Aoyagi) and Detective Saori (Ryoko Yuui) that she was kidnapped and what happened to her for the past 13 years. The detectives doubt about her statement.

Comments

Ciepao Jan 02 2023 11:28 pm I'm really happy that I can finally watch a drama about crime, but sadly it isn't enough for me.

I don't know where to start giving a review in this drama. Reading the description, I was anticipating on what will happen on the story but everything is just bland (?), the way they treat her when she finally got home after 13 years is like she was just gone for a week, no enough actions and questions on the two detectives trying to find out who is the culprit, and the acting of everyone is so dull and soft for a drama about crime and thriller. And why is the coloring of this drama pastel if it is about mystery?

I'll just give it a 5/10. The story is good, only the acting of the characters I find lacking and weak. Also the color grading of this drama, I can't really take a crime series seriously if it looks lively and youthful (?). And I also didn't like the ending, really not enough to see the justice that Yuria deserves. Although I am happy for Yuria in the ending.
