Where it all began - Oshin
Many years back, I still remember watching this drama with my late mom. It was in the 80's and I don't remember how old I am back then. What I do remember is the look on Mama's face when she was totally engrossed watching her fav's drama at that time. Her anguished look with a box of tissue in her hands, how I missed those time with her.
Oshin was my first Japanese Dorama and from this is how my passion starts. I'm in fact a maniac for Japanese doramas, Japanese Mangas, Japanese Anime and whatever Japanese culture there is. This obsession of mine really make a great impact on how it has 'infected' all my brothers. It's like a disease in the family. I cannot stop watching it and that is how I always end up 'marathoning' watching the whole DVD in one go and only stopping for eat, drink, prayer and well you know, when 'nature do calls'. Hahahaha......

Oshin tells 297 episodes (each episodes is 15 minutes) of a very poor girl in Japan. It shows how a young girl struggling and work very hard in the most trying times. She was so fragile but her determination and her perseverance is what pull her through.
Here's the OST.
