Picked up as my first Tamura Masazaku drama after a scene of it, in which his character stands up for his daughter's ex-fiancé in his workplace after having faced work abuse happened to go viral recently. I was curious when i read the plot and it made clear that the drama would be centered on the father as the "intuitive" controlling father that knows what's best for his children instead of the usual intuitive mother trope. Every episode has each character facing dilemmas related to their wishes and the responsability that comes with making their choices. Their personal stories feel realistic and convincing, while the OST gives a sense of warmth every time a cheesy scene comes up. Japanese directors and actors are able to capture the conventional aspects of life in family dramas very well.
