So my wee bae Kawaguchi Haruna is all grown up and in her own renai renzoku dorama this fall season called Silent with idol turned actor Meguro Ren. I’ve heard it’s a classic slow burn tearjerker type but Meguro Ren’s acting in prior doramas has been wildly bad so I was afraid to jump in but the dorama is going well in ratings and has solid buzz so far. It’s popular enough that key filming spots have turned into tourist sites with locals hitting it up to take pictures and partake of the sadness of a love that cannot be. The dorama is about a pair of high school lovers who abruptly break up when he calls it quits, only for her to find out years later that he was losing his hearing and didn’t want to burden hear. Sounds like a recipe for fun times lol, not this is exactly the kind of noble idiocy I haven’t seen in Asian dramas in awhile so it may feel like a walk down nostalgia lane when I find time to check it out.

I really like Silent but I didn't think that the filming spots were interesting to the point to visit them...
Aww I will always have a soft spot for Kawaguchi Haruna and her Haruhi in Ouran HSHC.
I wish Japanese entertainment would be as aggressive as their Korean or Chinese counterpart about exporting their productions. I have watched a few of their dramas this year and I discovered so many hidden gems like "Bokura Wa Kiseki de dekite", "Nagi No Oitama", "Heaven and Hell soul exchange", and this one "Silent".
