Re: J-Drama: Only Son & Three Older Sisters
may I say, there seems to b a certain fascination with older woman/younger man relationships in the series we've been seeing on TV (YM, Match Made in Heaven, To Shoot a Star--this one wasn't aired on TV here, but I'm currently watching)

Re: J-Drama: Only Son & Three Older Sisters
My guess is that there is a huge target market of single and married 30 year plus women who eat this stuff up... Over here it's Oprah and soaps.

Re: J-Drama: Only Son & Three Older Sisters
First Love kind of dealt with the older/younger situation except it was in reverse. A student girl falls in love with her teacher and then steals him from her sister in the future. Intricate plot but age barriers don't seem to matter too much.

Re: J-Drama: Only Son & Three Older Sisters
I know, what a coincidence, the main characters in both the series are 30 year old single women who think they have lost their age. All we need is an unhappy elderly mom and we have YM II.

Re: J-Drama: Only Son & Three Older Sisters
Does anybody know what's airing before this? Is it that Christian Taiga-like two episode drama?
