From time to time she is gripped by this doubt that cannot raise with anyone.

Afenie123456 May 31 2017 12:01 pm I like how when a woman falls in love while maried it's always beeing portrayed has something romantic. Wonder how viewers would feel if they made those same stories whit men having affairs because of their boring life. Atleast she stands her ground next to her husband and fights these feelings never consummate them.

dyinglight Jan 01 2015 5:29 pm I watched this only because Makiko Esumi starred in it and I just had watched her in Power Office Girls 4 and wanted to watch earlier stuff of hers. But I have to say that I wish I had picked something else of her's to watch instead of this.

Ace Sep 27 2014 1:07 am Stupid woman doing stupid hurtful things for stupid hurtful reasons = mind-numbing boredom. And while I think the cast was ok the acting in this was less than stellar. Maybe it is the script and the direction. I don't know. I just know I found it hard to find anything redeeming in this show. But others seem to like it so what do I know.

zaada Jul 09 2013 12:49 am I thought it was a good drama, the ending was a little disappointing and kinda ruined it for me..... But in saying that I still really enjoyed it and thought it was worth watching. I'm a fan of the cast as well!

ashley dawn Sep 04 2011 5:10 pm The only good thing about this drama was Yamashita Tomohisa, if it weren't for his character, I would have stopped watching half way through.

Kalisto Mar 14 2011 1:39 pm I watched this one because of the cast, but even with good people it was no good, the begining is pretty interesting, but the rest of the show was pretty meh, I don't recommend people who dislike slooooow dorama.

sumoni Jan 05 2011 1:18 am One of my favorite dramas. I love the ones about forbidden love, apart from those where someone is usually dying. It has it's bland moments and has it's campy moments, but it's still a good watch. I think if you like the plot where an older woman and younger guy fall in love, then it's for you. I really want to buy it.

kisha Jan 12 2010 9:12 am I love this drama. I have purchased it for my collection.

The story is about a forbidden love between a married woman and a young man with an illness.

Out of 5 stars I give it (****1/2)

Mitzmin Aug 11 2009 9:16 am Bad. Really bad. The plot isn't good, and um... the woman(Makiko) is ridiculous. I don't recommend.
