Instead of talking specifically about how endearing the lead couple is, or how the fun and silly plot elicits both squeals of exuberance and laughter, I want to talk about the value of this drama. I think the other reviews sufficiently cover the basic points.
Most of the time (not always), dramas spend an entire season just bringing a shy, hesitant, or resistant couple together. Once all those trials and conflicts have been resolved and the couple is ready for their happy ending, the dramas is over; sometimes we get a sneak peek of their future through a time leap. I always wondered why dramas couldn't go on to show the happy lives of couples we've invested so many emotions and late nights binge watching, in. Maybe it was because they thought it would be boring to watch a happy couple, vis-a-vis the exciting and turbulent "are we? or aren't we?" phase of a relationship. I don't know, that's just my speculation, you tell me.
With that in mind, this drama really gave me what I've always wanted and proved that there is a story to be told in happily ever after. While there is no longer that back and forth development, or the anxiety of "will they end up together?" since Irie-kun and Kotoko-chan are already married, there are still a lot of adventures and romance to be had. Silly scenarios, and some more realistic life challenges and disturbances in a marriage, keep the story moving and audiences engaged. Watching the characters develop and grow as individuals and as partners in a marriage was so enjoyable, and really you just never get tired of seeing this pairing together.
I hope we have more dramas like this, that really allow us to journey on with our favourite characters. Moreover, the interplay between Kotoko's loud rambunctious way of expressing her love and Irie's more quiet and discreet expression, makes for all the excitement you need.
