Good Morning-Call: Guddo môningu kôru

Stumbled across this show and just finished season 2. I was quickly hooked even though I had never watched a Japanese show, let alone a Japanese high school romance.The actress that plays Nao is simply incredible, she can portray every emotion possible in a believable way. The chemistry between Nao and Uehara is obvious, and their slow developing romance is at just the right pace. I loved seeing the nuances of Japanese culture ( the bowing, the apologies, the conservative treatment of sex, the obsession with Food !)

few shows go from hysterical LOL scenes to making me tear up really hoping for a season 3

I think I enjoyed this show way more than I probably should have. Timid Yoshikawa Nao gets caught in a housing scam and has to share an apartment with Uehara Hisashi, the most popular boy in school. Japanese shenanigans ensue. This show was so well written, so funny, and so adorable, it made me nostalgic of the time I lived in Japan and Korea. The plots are somewhat typical of what you would find in a teenage girl drama, but somehow, I found myself sucked in. Highly entertaining. The on-screen chemistry between the two leads and that among the supporting cast is phenomenal! Each and every character made me care about them, whether I liked or disliked them, I actually cared about their presence. None of them felt like throw-away characters, adding to the story in some way. I would recommend this show to my friends, and would not be the least bit embarrassed in doing so.

A hugely enjoyable series depicting the trails and tribulations of a slow burning romance between two Japanese high school students. I started watching it on a whim and was not disappointed. This series is addicting. The two main leads have sparkling chemistry, I found myself immediately drawn to them. Their characters are opposites in every sense of the word, but boy, do they work well together. There's also a perfect blend of witty, upbeat humor mixed with tear inducing emotional turmoil (had me reaching for tissues on a number of occasions!) Although not a 'grand' drama in its scale, it does extremely well with immersing the viewer with interconnecting plot lines, engaging characters and strong dialogue. 10/10 it's a definitely a must-see!

I've seen this show on Netflix and at first I really thought it to be some tacky crap but I was proved wrong after giving it a closer look. At first it may seem completely clichéd but that's just a travesty that will probably fool lots of Western audiences. The reason why I'm saying Western is because we deem clichés and things that are over the top generally as bad or vacuous. Admittedly, Good Morning Call is full of clichés but they're used so well that everything just seems so charming and endearing. A lot of the acting and the plots is really exaggerated but I can't help but laugh at it ... and I mean in a good way, enjoying the show. However, it may not appeal to everyone which is, in my opinion, mainly because lots of people won't get what this show is trying to do.

Wow o wow. After "Descendants of the Sun" I was looking for another romance. And I was not disappointed. I have watched it twice already.

First of all Nao (the actress) is an incredible actress, and she is only 18, she plays all emotions really well and does comedy body humor really well too.

The writing is surprisingly deep and complex. It is taken from a Manga series so maybe thats why.

I just want to comment on some who said that it is misogynist. I don't think it is. Let me tell you how I see it: He: He comes from that background so has closed himself off from the world. To his credit even if all fawn over him, he just ignores them and just does his own thing and doesn't want people bothering him She: she is such an extrovert, loved by many, and it took somoeone like her to draw him out. He is so closed emotionally and through the series she brings him out.

So I don't see it as misogynst.

I cant recommend it high enough
