Yoshimura Yuri works on the night shift at a convenience store. Depressed, she has given up on life, and numerous times, she attempts to commit suicide. Yuri is haunted by her past; back in school, she cut herself, but her mother, instead of caring, accused her of doing so just to attract attention.

She wasn't like this a few years ago, and she blames her shameful father for it. She swore that she would never become like him, pathetic, helpless, poor and always begging for forgiveness whenever he makes a mistake.

Under her father’s pressure, she is aiming to become a representative at the next big swimming competition for her school.

One day, she gets caught in one of her shoplifting acts – something she does only for the thrill rather than for the product – by her childhood friend, Daisuke. Without much consideration, she pulls him to a nearby hotel where they spend the night together. However, Kana does not expect what happens afterwards would affect everything she has worked for.

personal view:

this drama really is a good drama that really express what human really is. It show us the good and ugly side of a human being.....

(reality/experience is a harsh teacher,it give the test first,the lesson later)

looks nice, thx for the recommendations.... btw, are they based on true stories??

nope...they are just story related to life

I watched the first season, but it didn't do anything for me. I guess
it was just too hard to get to like the characters in such a short
amount of time.

I just downloaded the video and the subs. Will be watching it this weekend.. thanks!

oh I already watched this..
Its really really real-life story..

I like this.. I think the story is touching...
