I expected to enjoy this drama thorougly, but the only thing I really enjoyed at first was the set of the characters' homes. The story took awhile to capture my attention. The whole dancing young boy and career woman fall in love in a dance studio bit--um, wait, WHAT? Other than that, it has its moments, I guess. A spin on forbidden love--but with a twist. Won't say what, else I spoil it. |

ok drama.. somehow not very interesting. |
| 4. | Comments by Tiffany [Rating: 4/10]
This series started out really promising. It seemed like a non-traditional love story that could have been well done. Yet, the storyline fell completely flat. To make matters worse, the acting was only mediocre and the ending terrible. |

was expecting it to be a good drama.. and there would be some chemistry between yamapi & makiko... BUT ...
it was a total disappointment.. gave it 4 because makiko was good in the show...
the show is very slow... got a bit boring towards the middle part...
no chemistry between actor & actress.. yamapi was not really good in the show... guess this role doesn't suit him... i think he is better in stand up! :(
bought this show because of makiko.. and partly because of yamapi... well.. |

well....this show's kinda boring, but i thought it was ok .... there were many parts where i went like 'i KNEW it!'. certain parts needed more development. |

this show is not bad !! it wasn't draggy ... and lurve yamapi in the show ne ... haha .. kakkoii !!!! and Makiko Esumi still looked superb in the show ~~~ |

Hmmm.. quite a slow drama but touching in places. Kozue's uncertainty about herself and her relationship with Takuma is portrayed really nicely. The theme song was quite soothing, anothing one of those easy listening type pieces which I like. Overall, an average drama. |

Very touching bittersweet drama of love between an older woman and younger man. Got me all teary. :'( |
| 10. | Comments by natzumi [Rating: 7/10]
I would only recommand this if you like Tomohisa Yamashita. The storyline is mediocre. |

i must have rewatched this 14329872435 times but because it's so touching. i've written a million reviews about this and i think i'm just about drained for another one here |
| 13. | Comments by Angry Machines [Rating: 5/10]
tomohisa and makiko in the same drama and the two are the main stars?....I already started losing intrest. I forced my self to watch it till the end. The ending surprised me, but I did like it for what it meant for the whole idea of the show. Recommened to fans of the two actors only, otherwise don't bother. |
| 14. | Comments by IniQx [Rating: 6/10]
kinda disappointed in Esumi Makiko's performance. It's one of those typical forbidden love again... |
| 15. | Comments by donna8157 [Rating: 6/10]
This drama should be avoided. With a forbidden love type of plot revolving around a married woman and a younger man you'd think there would be more chemistry between the two since that's the most important aspect of a romance-based drama. But it's very much the complete opposite. The moments between Esumi Makiko and Yamashita Tomohisa were awkward to say the least.
I also found problems with the fact that Esumi Makiko was married and she acted as if she was still single. It was confusing and also took away from whatever little chemistry there could have been between Ogawa Kozue and the dance instructor Fukuzawa Takuma.
When reading the premise of the series off of jdorama, I thought the story would be good. But it definitely wasn't. It's not worth watching. |
| 16. | Comments by AK [Rating: 8/10]
Actually, this dorama is good, but if we talk about "forbidden love" stories, there are better ones. I guess that's what make of this dorama not THAT good as you expected.
Despite this, I like it anyways. I saw it in ONE day. There were moments when you get a bit bored but just for a minute.
This dorama has one of my favourite "romantic" scenes ever. And, if you just like Esumi, this dorama will make you love her. If you already loved her, you'll love her even more!
The end is.... o.O |
| 17. | Comments by tk_iva [Rating: 7/10]
worth watching becos of yamapi.. |
| 18. | Comments by fybabe [Rating: 6/10]
Really it's much ado about absolutely nothing!
I wouldn't have given it such a high score if it weren't for the lead actress, who i like. the lead guy is cute too, but he doesn't seem to put enough effort into his act... and the script is so weak, and i personally hate stories where you are forced to pity the terminally sick/genetically ill/suddenly cancerous lead! |
| 19. | Comments by keikotl [Rating: 6/10]
Ekk, I can't believe I would give such a low rating to one of Yamapi's drama. But then again, I only watched it because of Yamashita Tomohisa. I thought the drama was just average and I added a point for the actors' effort because everyone did their role very well. I really don't like the plots with younger men falling in love with older women but if they have a good explaination for it, I can accept, but for this one, I can side with Takuma Fukazawa, but for Ogawa Kozue, it was really hard for me to tolerate her feelings for Takuma since she's already married. This might be the first drama that I'm not disappointed with a non-typical happy ending. |

The most innocent love story I ever seen...Yamapi is really kakoii in this show, he's a great dancer ... I think we can see him as no longer a only pretty boy! |
| 21. | Comments by idetakun [Rating: 3/10]
yamapi is to blame, the script writter is to blame... anything else? |
| 22. | Comments by Prongs [Rating: 7/10]
It's not bad but little boring ^^" |
| 23. | Comments by xhidex33 [Rating: 9/10]
Like most others, I watched it because Yama was in it. But then I got to like Esumi a lot (real pretty... and young-looking). The story is a bit draggy, but the casting and idea is nice. Very cute (doki doki...suru) |
| 24. | Comments by Susan [Rating: 8/10]
Not a half bad drama. I was captivated Esumi Makiko's gorgeous figure and long, full hair. She was serious but she had this softness just around the edges that made her very likable. Overall I was happy with the way it ended. Who knows what would've been in the future for those people? Yet what made me give this series and 8 instead of a 9 was that same uncertainty and that final scene between Kozue and Hideo. It made me think that they would end up back together after all, and I think they're just not right for each other after all. |
| 25. | Comments by janjan85 [Rating: 6/10]
Simple Story but yamapi is so cute in this drama |
| 26. | Comments by Kiyomi L. Denise [Rating: 4/10]
Aww man, look at my rating, and you've already guessed what I would say. Oh, super super super regret buying this drama... First of all, I dislike relationships where girls are older than guys, then... *sigh* it's just too far. Their age gap, I mean. Again, I bought the drama for only ONE reason, Yamashita Tomohisa. Gawd, I should stop acting like this. |
| 27. | Comments by jica [Rating: 6/10]
I watched it because of Yamapi, didn't really like the drama, don't like how the female lead treated the young boy. Anyway, for me, this wasn't so much of a love story, because he seemed to be such a boy, more like mother and son relationship. |

I like YamaP so much, however, this drama seems dull. I couldn't feel the love between them even they said so, and the ending.... The drama is just so so. |

Saw it with no english subs. So not complete sure of everything that was said but I followed the basics.....didn't like the ending |
| 36. | Comments by Alatariel [Rating: 6/10]
I like both Yamapi & Makiko, I won't watch if it's not for them. Until epi 2, i realised there is more depth injected into the storyline. In the end, I couldn't decide who to root for, the husband or yamapi? |
| 37. | Comments by inessalenin [Rating: 10/10]
I like the story which depicted 30s woman about the feeling to experience another romance. Age maybe not a problem, situation and conservertive opinion really mattered. |

| 40. | Comments by nienna [Rating: 6/10]
i've only watched 3 episodes so far and have a very high opinion on this drama~~ YamaPi's so cute but it's so hard to predict his character. i mean, how in the world can he pop up so easily in front of the main actress? is he stalking her or something? what does takuma expect from kozue-san? does he even know that she's married to the sweestest man on earth??? |
| 41. | Comments by gto_girlz83 [Rating: ?/10]
still collecting the whole episode |
| 42. | Comments by GIGI [Rating: ?/10]
Done. I was always at the edge of my seat waiting if Kozue will really runa way with Takuma. Reasonable ending. |
| 43. | Comments by Shachihoko [Rating: 1/10]
Unlike all of you Yampai fangirls rating this series just because of him!
I can't seem to get into this series at all, somehow I find it pretty boring and putting me to sleep for good after the first 2 episode. Not a great drama at all.. |
| 44. | Comments by sw33t_laydee [Rating: 7/10]
I thought the story was good up until the last episode that left the viewer with an open-ended ending. |

| 46. | Comments by Eyeyore [Rating: 3/10]
No grounds for the main character to find a new romance especially if there is a caring and sensitive husband. Yamapi pales in comparison with Yanagiba. I guessed i wouldn't have hated the ending as much if the hubby was a balding, big tummy, bespectacled ojisan..... |
| 47. | Comments by CuPxxCaKE [Rating: 8/10]
pretty good series... the ending was so-so for me though |

| 50. | Comments by masaki-chan [Rating: 9/10]
Esumi Makiko did it again. Her acting makes me wanna cry sometimes, sometimes laugh XD And Yamapi as sick dancer that is in love with her. That helps get rest and relax after hard day. |
| 51. | Comments by mistymoonlight [Rating: 8/10]
OK |
| 52. | Comments by pinkokoro [Rating: 5/10]
COMPLETE. HS. why would you want to fall in love with a younger boy when you have such nice and faithful husband??? I can't comprehend. if your husband is bad, etc, although I still dislike the ideas of a wife getting an affair etc, it is somewhat 'more' acceptable than when u have a very caring, wonderful husband. |
| 53. | Comments by akitsu [Rating: 3/10]
It was soooo boring. There was just no chemistry and putting Esumi und Yamashita together felt more like parent-child than a romanticaly involved couple. The two of them are like from two totaly other worlds - maybe that was the intension, but the chemistry was pretty much needed to make it work. |
| 54. | Comments by yurifly [Rating: 5/10]
In general, I dislike the older woman-younger man plot which sadly seems very popular among many Johnnys. I've seen Takki, Jin and now Yamapi (heck, even Kimura Takuya did this kinda plot in Long Vacation)
This drama is really slow and although I can sort of sympathize with Kozue as the bored wife, I was more often annoyed by the fact that she continually gives in to the whim of an 18 year old who I think is simply carried by the moment. After all, 18 is too young to understand what love really is and the responsibility that comes with love and being married. That being said, I find Kozue rather irresponsible for even getting involved with someone so young, especially with a husband like Ogawa. And honestly, how the hell does a banker turn to become a flower delivery man? The drama does have a a full cast of young starting actors...it's a bit unusual for me to see Ayase Haruka, Yamada Yu and Yamapi as supporting actors cuz I'm so used to their leading roles these days. Strangely for Yamapi, I always find his acting in older dramas to be better than the ones where he is the lead (though the characters he play are also more generic). I think he is more natural when he doesn't have that pressure to maintain good ratings and where he can really just act. |
| 55. | Comments by sadacori [Rating: 7/10]
Part Majou no Jouken and part Shall We Dance, this drama is about falling in love with someone even though you are married. Only that someone just happens to be a dance instructor still in high school.
I understand why some people thought that this drama was immoral, but from a woman's point of view, I can see something like that happening, especially if life gets into a comfortable (albeit, boring) routine. When someone interesting pops into your life, it can suddenly get exciting, and though most people would choose not to do anything, there are some people who give in to temptation. This drama has a realistic approach to that scenario and I thought it was a good drama. |
| 56. | Comments by Kitsuchi [Rating: 9/10]
I really liked this series. Sad and emotional and sweet.. I liked the songs used in it and the cast acted very great too. The only disappointment was the ending, otherwise it'd probably be the greatest.
I really recommend this for others to watch. It was very sweet and I always looked forward to continue watching it. It may have a typical story, but I felt that this was kind of different. I don't really know what it is, that makes this different, but it definitely is. That's what I felt.. You should see and judge for yourself.
I could absolutely watch this twice or three times more. That's how sweet and innocent I felt this series was. Even if there are several other series with the same kind of story, the quality of it is what makes it stand out more than the others. I think this series made it through without dragging out too much or complicate things which is easy to do.
Watch :). |

im not sure y people keep saying "there's no chemistry between them" .that is absolutely not true !! Kozue tried to protect herself from involved in this 'forbidden love' .each plot make me excited to know what will happen at the end of the story ..i really wish Kozue-Takuma end-up together ..Poor me (o; |
| 63. | Comments by joychin [Rating: 9/10]
It's not bad. From the title,i tot it was going to be boring but surprisingly,it's not. In fact,not at all. However,one thing i realised about the drama,there doesn't seem to be any background music and intrumentals only the theme song at the beginning of the drama.....but i don't mind it. I really like the relationship btwn the husband and the wife.. .I mean,you barely see them fight except for one part where the husband raised his voice.....and basically,that was it. LOL. I really the admire kozue. |
| 64. | Comments by delaciel [Rating: 7/10]
Well, I like this drama until episode 7 or 8 (I forget). because I just didn't like the ending. It has an interesting storyline (there's some scene that really touch my heart). It cold've been a better drama if they explore some minor character. |
| 65. | Comments by EstherM [Rating: 8/10]
I expected the worst with this older woman/younger boy story but it was interesting in the sense that it was mainly from the woman's point of view. |
| 66. | Comments by carina4 [Rating: 8/10]
YAMAPI! kawaii. A very good love story. It's a little sad that she doesn't love her husband in that way, and I feel sorry for him, but the dancing and yamapi is so romantic <3 but what ticks me off is that they don't get together in the end and I understand why in a way, but still! |

| 69. | Comments by natni [Rating: 6/10]
the story was ok...but the ending was a disaster...i think if Takuma won't be together with Kozue...then just stop when she happily doing her job...why it should end like that....totally a disaster...give 6 over 10 because i love yamapi and makiko... |

I didn't really like the ending much, but I understand it. Another Yamapi drama for me. Though I liked the character of Hideo too. Nice to see them both in Code Blue together! |
| 72. | Comments by Sorata [Rating: 7/10]
I didn´t gave 8 to this because i hated the ending, but the dorama overall was good.
It´s the tipical young guy/old woman story but this time both of them have great partners: she has a good husband and he has a great girlfriend so it´s hard for you us to side with them, that´s one of the things i loved in this dorama. Well if you like forbidden love storys you won´t be disapointed. |

brings the mark down because of the bad ending and unnatural relationships. I mean, why call your husband who you have been living with for 7 years for SAN? it just doesnt make sense, the environment was kinda boring as well, and the ending sucked...and the mainactress was pretty annoying as well |
| 78. | Comments by daniela [Rating: 6/10]
Well, this time I get why Esumi Makiko as Kozue decided to let Takuma go and eventually come back to her husband.
I think that things like this happens a lot and it is not necessarily bad if it does not lead to infidelity (like in this case)..people have great relationship but are still not satisfied, suddenly they meet another person that shows them something different and helps them to open their eyes and realize what their really want.. |
