The drama is only 5 episodes long, so there's hardly any boring parts. The background music is amazing. It's so well done and fits the drama and the mood perfectly. I am really looking forward to the OST being released.
Anyway, this is seriously a must-watch. Best japanese drama in a very very long time.

As expected WOWOW production never disappointed me at all. They always leave me impressed with top tier quality and put effort to ensure a high standard of story telling, acting, cinematography, casts and production values.A Journalist is trying to reinvestigated old kidnapping case by rely on his memories and networks he has. The drama expressed some strong element of guilty through each characters. They delivered different of perspectives and don't show judgemental to the character who involved. One thing was amazed me how the drama itself stick on media ethics and do key points to approach things. I love how the drama potrayed professional reporter to solve and reinvestigate old kidnapping case and not rushing anyone involved but to let them share the experiences and sympathies. The transition between past and present was so smooth. We could tell by cinematic itself.
Overall it's very satisfying to watch and character and story telling was made us to focuse and pay attention for each scene. Acting was very solid with numerous number of veteran actors leading the cast which made it easier for me to grasp the characters stories.
I am gonna put this drama on my top 10. I heartily recommend to anyone who likes watching a mystery drama. #KageriYukuNatsu is drama that worth every second of your time. It keeps you on the edge of seat.
