The 2022 Japanese drama silent was one of those series that gripped its audience and took them on an emotional rollercoaster throughout it’s 11 episode run. Produced by Fuji TV in Japan (and Rauken Viki in the states) the series aired Oct 6, 2022 – Dec 22, 2022 and turned the series’ leading man, Ren Meguro (of the JPOP group Snow Man), into an international sensation!

Meguro stared as So, a young man who started losing his hearing shortly after graduating high school. Retreating into himself, he turned his back on all his friends, including the girl he was in love with Tsumugi (Haruna Kawaguchi). They meet again, eight years later, and slowly, love finds away to bring the two back together.

In August, a box set of the director’s cut of the series was released. 

Artwork: Housed in a sturdy outer box, the inner box, including a high-resolution print of the image above, it’s simple and sleek – simple, but gorgeous. 

Specs: with a run time of about 569 minutes, the single-sided/dual-layered 4-disc set includes all eleven episodes as well as a making-of, cast interviews, unreleased footage, and a 60-page booklet

You can order a copy of the series wherever Japanese entertainment is sold, including CD Japan.
