Hyoten

I watched it because of Tegoshi Yuya, kyaaa!!!
And he played as Ishihara Satomi's God Brother. This time of the year, I think Satomi is the biggest and famous actress in Japan? Or I am wrong?

Based on the novel going by the same name by Miura Ayako. Remake of the drama going by the same name from 2001.

I did not watch the previous so I can not compare between both. But i read it said that this remake is perfect version of novel to be compare with another two. Prepare tissue is you watching it hehehe

MY THOUGHTS

Even though Keizo is the one who arrange the adoption a baby girl to replaced the death daughter to make his wife happy but he is can not fully accept Yoko and love her fully. Why is Yoko hated? There are a reason for it. Watch it you want to know. Apparently she is adopted just for the revenge. Growing up with Yoko and knowing the facts that Yoko is not his own sister with blood, he can not handle himself but falling in love with her. He wanted to marry her when they grew up but the family against it saying that she is his sister so they can not get married. This story is so dramatic and sad. Full with misunderstanding and tears. The girl who played Yoko when she is a kid is too cute and really good. Yoko' s life is full of tears since kids. But she never once disobey her parents. The only person who always stand by her side is Toru. Even though Yuriko died for ages yet these two still blaming each other and put Yoko to be blame as their punching bag. They did not physically abuse Yoko but mentally. The only person who love her is only Toru. The plot twist is at part where they finally learned the truth about who Yoku is. But still the truth that does not make Yoko happy. How do she live with the truth of herself? Will she and Toru ended up together? This 2 episode is highly recommended.
