It can't possibly end as miserably as Bali. Nothing can!

It's better than I expected, and I have expectations of this to be solidly GOOD! YAY

[dangermousie]

Well, Bad Guy was good for about 2/3 until the writer started doing hard drugs, was kidnapped by aliens, etc etc. Maybe it's the portions in Japan that remind me :)

You recommended this to me and it looks good so far! I like the dark noir tone. Oh and I think you would like the documentary: The Great Happiness Space Tales of An Osaka Love Thief. It's a really fascinating look at male hostesses in Japan.

[dangermousie]

Thanks for the rec, it sounds fascinating!

It really hooked me from the first episode as well.

I really like her with KSW's character most because I am very shallow and I don't think the other guy is really handsome. XD

[dangermousie]

I like Yutaka more but KSW is certainly a distinguished older gentleman.

[iheartkleenex]

Don't want to sound like a creepy stalker or anything but Yutaka seems like the type you would like more. What can I say, I am a sucker for distinguished gentlemen. :D

I can already feel that pairing breaking my heart. Yutaka is the male lead and unless the writer pulls a 'How to Meet a Perfect Neighbor' ending she will probably fall for Yutaka.

I don't know about you but the way they were talking about her in the beginning it seems as if it the in memoriam.

[dangermousie]

Neighbor would ironic since KSW was supposed to be main but lost the girl in that one.

Tbh, I agree with you about the 'in memoriam' thing - whoever she will love, I am pretty sure she's ending up with neither.

OH! I thought Yoochun was the secondary male lead. He's her love interest?! Now, I really must watch this.

[dangermousie]

Yup, he's the one she ultimately falls for. (Yay, she isn't blind!)
