Lala Nov 26 2021 7:45 pm story about investigation with my fav actor Tanaka Kei and the theme song by my fav artist BTS and TXT????!!! gosh I can't even explain how happy I am!!! so far the story is well execute... there's a few things that doesn't really make sense in the drama to me but it's not overwhelming so I can ignore that.. I can't believe japanese drama is the one that united BTS and TXT as hoobaes and sunbaes by doing ost together XD as always Kei is adorable as Jinbo ^_^ can't wait for the last episodes!!

Evalene Mar 26 2020 9:45 am Will it only be published in Japan. I live in the states and I really want to see it :(. Is there any possible way I can?
