If anyone has a better quality raw for this drama, please let me know.
The story focuses on the middle child, Sho and his relationship with his father. Sho is always compared with his older brother, Yo who excels in everything, while Sho likes to shut himself alone in his room. Their mother and Yuu, their little sister, are so proud of Yo and always look down on Sho. They keep saying Sho takes after their father too much, who is never successful in anything. One night... Sho made a suicidal attempt...
Shingo's status here is special appearance. He doesn't appear much in this drama but he played a big part. The final scene was a heart-warming brothers' talk between Yo and Sho.
It's a story about family, how they deal with each other, parent-child relationship, siblings' relationship, how the children are trying to find their own paths. It's a nice, heart-warming family drama.
I wish there's a sequel with 38 years old Yo, 33 yrs old Sho and 28 years old Yuu... heehee...
