The relationship of the OTP is nicely set, they met when he was practically nothing, and she was the daughter of a wealthy bank man. Shortly after she has nothing, losing her wealth, the social status, her father, and then they are meeting again and get into a contract marriage. There is not much comedy, but the interaction is nice and has a light mood at times. It is not without fail and their relationship at some point goes down … I won’t go any further or more into detail …

J-movies:
Put this under dramas by mistake, but I really feel like there are several versions and I might have watched them all …

For all the Lee Joon Gi Fans out there, 3 years after The Flying Boys and 2 years after The King and the Clown, and he still looks so young. Just checked and he was 25 back then.
2008
2010
This one has Rock music in it, so I was an easy prey.
A samurai eating pudding … If that isn’t sweet, I don’t know what is …
2011
Oguri Shun …
It’s a huge loss it is no longer on Viki, imagine you watch a Japanese drama, suddenly you start hearing a song and you kind of know that song, then you hear the lyrics, and it is in your native language, German in my case, … You will sit there, stare at the screen and think - unbelievable.
2015
It was running in my hometown cinema, so I just had to watch, and I fell in love with those 3 characters …
Unfortunately not many J-movies to watch, at least no access.
So cool! Reminds me of the time I was watching Kkondae Intern and the ML made a deal with “Mumbai Food” - and he started talking on the phone in what I thought was japanese. But then he said “shukriya” and i was like WAIT WHATTT THAT’S HINDI??? I had to rewind it ten times just to understand what he was trying to say(his pronounciation was TERRIBLE ).
And to top it all off, he did an Indian commercial that made me collapse into fits of laughter
