Comment:

Well, it was a very successful case of coming out at their old age to their family. I don't think most of family can take it. Especially when he has daughters. Even if my spouse has died, I would never hurt my daughters. I have read many positive critics, but I don't know why you see only a good part of it. I guess you will never think about it would destroy entire your family life. I suppose it comes from the difference of culture. Anyway, It was a romance film.
