Imiwa May 06 2023 8:07 am One of my favourite Japanese dramas, the chemistry between the two leads is very appealing, it's a shame that Kou Shibasaki only appeared in the first episode of the second season, which made me lose interest in the remaining episodes.

Jeanne Querol Oct 04 2013 3:44 am Finally I can watch this show next week because the UN celebration in our school will be having Film Showing!I'm excited

aznlover220 Jul 04 2012 9:22 pm This show is really great if u like mystery. It has moments where it could be more exciting but overall, a truly great watch. And NO it does not have even a remotely sad ending. Which was one of the misconceptions I had that kept me from watching it for so long.

non sibi Nov 28 2010 12:08 pm jintana suwanayuen - Is it not a happy-ending drama? No, I do not like it, I do not like sad-ending dramas :(
