Don't bother with this if you DON'T believe expensive clothes make you a better person....

Warning: Spoilers
Quote from this series: "when you wear beautiful clothes, you will have a beautiful life." So for those of us who cannot afford 'beautiful clothes' I guess we're doomed to ugly, depressing lives then? That statement alone sums up this drama - these people are as shallow as raindrops on the pavement; I've seen puddles in the gutter with more depth.

I got through this mess to the end - mainly because I kept hoping for one of them to have some kind of epiphany that such meaningless soundbites like the quote above is NOT going to give them ANYTHING, let alone a 'beautiful life'; but I was to remain disappointed. This drama tells you that it's only if you wear expensive, 'beautiful' clothes (make up, shoes, everything) can you love yourself.....of course this is the worst kind of message to send anyone; it's also a load of lies.

Still, if you are also as shallow as a raindrop on the pavement; if you have less depth of character than a puddle in the gutter; if you too believe that wearing expensive 'label' make up, expensive 'label' and 'beautiful' clothing is ALL it takes to have a 'beautiful life' and love yourself as a person then this is the drama for you.

However, if you believe that sheer hard work, love, compassion and sympathy for EVERYONE - regardless of what they're bl**dy WEARING or how much cash they have - is what will ACTUALLY make you a BETTER person and ensure you're proud of yourself and what you achieve, and therefore able to love yourself, then don't follow me and sit through even a second of this; escape whilst you can - seriously, RUN like you're on FIRE. If you want to watch something with SUBSTANCE over style; something with an INSPIRING message - watch 'The Lion Standing in the Breeze' or even 'Ataru: The First Love and Last Kill'; because even Ataru, a man with acute autism, is more caring than this bunch.
