Love and Fortune (2018)

A psychological drama about unhealthy interpersonal relationships explained often through elaborate flashbacks. Takanako Mayuko, who grew up in an idyllic mansion with the perfect loving family, blames her childhood best friend for everything that has gone wrong in her life. While maintaining the façade of friendship, Mayuko finalizes the revenge she’s been secretly plotting for decades.

Both dramas have a minor/adult relationship that is very uncomfortable to watch.
Love and fortune is much less twisted but more difficult to watch because of the numerous graphic sex scenes (yes, between an adult a teenager) and because it is a longer drama.

Both titles are about an older woman's interest and fascination with a high school aged boy. Both female leads really like the smell of the younger boy.

Both drama deal with forbidden relationship that are more than physical one. They can be judge harsly if watched only from a society point of view but we can also sympathize with them if we watch with an understanding mind.

The story will focus on a love triangle between the three leads. Eikura plays the role of Morimoto Naoko, a girl from the countryside whose first love is her uncle, Ikezawa Masato.

However, things get complicated after Naoko and Masato meet again.

Noburu is a handsome designer who draws a high salary and has a good marriage with Aiko, whom he much loves. That is until Noburu witnesses Aiko enjoying an affair with her boss and looking very happy. Feeling betrayed, Noboru decides to get revenge on his wife.

A love story affair with a bit different storyline & plot with mature sexual content but both is worth watching drama. If you like mature love affairs story I definitely recommend this drama.

The relationship between Wako and Iko is similar to Hye Sung and Soo Ha...minus all the sex scenes...and the sex itself...but for the age gap, it is pretty similar in context....that a younger man actually adores and loves an older woman...I like it that this concept is not looked down upon in society....atleast in a drama...

Both titles are about a woman who is in her early thirties worry about the direction her life needs to go. Marriage, career, and dead-end relationships are common themes and worries for the main women.

The stories are 99% different but the sequence of nudity and sex scenes are the same. They also begin in the same way. Maybe Love and Fortune (2018) has been expired in this movie. But here there is no art, it is only pure nakedness. The actor they used here as a student is very handsome, but this film certainly did not help to elevate his career....
