What is good about this drama, the story is very realistic. It portrays some of the reality that sometimes happening in Japan. The housewife who was very dedicated to raising her children without thinking about her own needs. She neglects herself too much to the point she was disrespected by her own family. It is about a self-discovery that sometimes things need to be destroyed into ruins. From ruins or wasteland, then a new beginning will only be able to start. The only things that lacking are the pace of the story is too slow and can be too boring. The ending was somewhat an open ending. For me, it's not an exact closure for the main lead, which kind of sad. Since you follow up on her journey, you kind of want something that is definite about her journey. The drama also talked about the Nagasaki bombing during WW II.  I think the drama can take the story of WWII more dramatic in order to make it more interesting and appealing. I don't recommend it for someone who wants a closure or get bored very easily. But this drama can be good for something different from a regular drama. It's a gamble to watch.
