My comment :

If you want romantic story ... you've got to watch this dorama.

Some comedy scenes are the bonus.  Watch, smile, and laugh ...

Best Drama, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Theme Song ... you got them all.

And the kid actress Kobayashi Seiran is also super cute.

One of my favorite dorama.  Highly recommended!
