人知れず辛い道を選ぶ

one day in the future, i'll rewatch this whole drama, and it will still be as beautiful and painful as ever.  i also found out the hard way tat ep 10 is NOT the final episode but it's def the most tear-jerking episode so far. 

( 愛と死 )

ueno juri and ryo jus DAZZLE with their performances.  i read somewhere tat ueno juri was at the risk of being typecast as the ditzy girl-next-door, but this role of hers definitely smashes all these preconceptions to bits.  ryo is jus utterly amazing as well, and no, i dun think i'm lowering my standards jus cuz he's a johnny's boy - tho i will concede tat i prob dun dislike sousuke as much cuz i have a total soft spot for a cute guy shedding tears.
