I recently rewatched the old Japanese drama Beach Boys and still enjoy it. The story revolves around people figuring out what they want to do with their lives. Since the drama is from 1997, mobile phones weren’t widely used, and the characters connect by spending time together and paying attention to the little details. Simple expressions or gestures, even in silence, can convey a lot about a person.
Watching this drama reminds me of my teenage school days when I’d sleep over at a friend’s house, play games, and chat about random topics in life late into the night. It would be wonderful to have some screen-free time with like-minded people every now and then.
