Unlikely age-gap dorama with dynamic growth of lead male

Honestly, it has been a while after HajiKoi and TBS finally brought back age gap-themed dorama. The storyline made me laugh out loud, it just didn't make sense at all when Hayame's life messed up in the span of a day. It was also ridiculous yet a little bit made sense how Issei really wanted to bully Hayame since she annoyed him once. But it was totally ridiculous how a homeless woman accepted herself to live in her bully house instead of getting help from someone else she knew.

The second lead male is super likable. Gun-chan really portrayed 29 years-old Seigo who is matured and calm. You couldn't help but root for Seigo too. An unfinished love story that goes with a new rival of 17-year-old Issei who was completely brat at first makes this dorama interesting. Unlike classic cinderella, Hayame decided not to be a bullied target, and she stood for herself and righted the wrong. I love her characteristic.

Issei also completely turned into in-the-middle-of-boy-and-man. He went softer and he fully realized he was in love with Hayame when she really run for him the moment he run from home. His acts somehow were too mean but straightforward. What I love he spoke out loud of his mind instead of restraining himself as Seigo did. I thought it was because he was so young but he proved me wrong. His consent love was so admirable for a 17-years-old-boy who has just fallen in love.

Just like Hajikoi, this one ended with the promise of marriage. Probably a special episode or even Season 2 could be better. and LISA's voice completed everything.
