Binge watched Japanese drama
'First Love'
Inspired from songs by Hikaru Utada, It's a slow-burn romantic drama.
Simple story presented in swoon-worthy, heartwarming, heart-touching way.
Writer-director Yuri Kanchiku beautifully narrates the screenplay.
Each episode is like a connecting pieces of puzzle, which makes it immersing, intriguing and interesting.
Each small detail in storytelling is so important, Even small dialogues, activities and objects play important part..
Each action of a character is beautifully presented, why he/she took such decision, which gives depth to characters.
Series has perfect casting, specially lead couple, their older and younger versions.
Their acting is enthralling. Chemistry is top-notch.
It not only narrate dynamics of a couple in different life stages but also relation of mother-daughter, friends, mother-son n siblings.
Drama has beautiful OSTs, breathtaking visuals, specially in the last episode has Icelandic scenery.
I find myself shedding tears in each episode. Truly heartfelt for me.
