Aoyama Takashi is a salesman who works in a company that exploits him. At first excited about finally gaining employment, he soon finds that his life as a salaryman is miserable. He is berated and hit by his superior, and forced to work unpaid overtime. Depressed and convinced that his joyless life is not worth living, Aoyama tries to throw himself in front of a train. However, he is saved by Yamamoto, a cheerful guy who claims to be Aoyama's childhood friend. Aoyama's life begins to change because of Yamamoto, but when he starts digging into Yamamoto's identity, he realizes that Yamamoto is not entirely what he seems. Edit Translation

STORY: The story addresses Karoshi, a Japanese term literally meaning "overwork death," or "death by overwork." It's a big problem in Japan and this movie portrays an overworked guy who attempts suicide and the guy who tries to save him. It's a redemption story with a lot of suspense, also mystery surrounding the identity of "Yamamoto." It has a great ending. NOTE: This is not Boy's Love or Bromance or anything like that.

ACTING/CAST: It's literally an All-Star cast! All of the actors, and the one actress, were superb. You just can't get too much better than these people!

MUSIC: It was good for a show like this, certainly. That ending song is quite good, check the comment section for a link to it English Subbed.

REWATCH VALUE: I will watch it again down the road.

OVERALL: Absolutely fantastic and heartwarming movie about a very powerful subject (Kar?shi) and two guys just trying to save each other.

So I'll be writing my first review so cut me some slack
I found this movie on Kissasian by sheer luck and I do not regret watching this at all not even one bit
watch it.
I think it's a good movie accurately showing one of the worst sides of the business, especially in Japan. It deals with suicide and generally being at a low point in life
The plot was meaningful and moving and it touched on some important issues in our society regarding work, family connections, depression & suicide. The two main characters did well in their roles and were believable
If you are pondering whether to watch this movie or not, just watch it
why?
Because it is a film that I truly believe everyone should watch
a movie that can change your perspective
It deals with seeing hope in the midst of all the harshness of reality against you and seeing what matters to you in the end
I am a very bad critique when it comes to movies but this movie struck a chord in my heart because of Jonghyun that I actually shed a tear or two in the end
watch it.
Some may not enjoy it as much, some may find it even better than I did
There is no romance FYI altho there is bromance but it is not BL
so with this
Do watch it'!
