You're not mad anymore, are you? I'm not mad. Then why did you avoid me? I didn't want you to be uncomfortable. Things would be awkward between us. I was scared that you'd hate me. I don't hate you. I just…

Slow Train (2025) special drama eng sub

I am excited to share this wonderfully kind and poignant story about three adult siblings who lost their parents in a car accident over twenty years ago and continue to live in their childhood home in Kamakura.

Youko the eldest sibling (played by the incredible Matsu Takako) is an outspoken literary editor and still unmarried in her forties, which seems to bother the people around her - particularly one of her authors, Momeki Ken (Hoshino Gen). Miyako the middle child (Tabe Mikako) is a restless soul and about to move to Busan, South Korea, with her Korean boyfriend (Joo Jong Hyuk) on what seems like a whim. Ushio the little brother (Matsuzaka Toori) works as a tracklayer for a local railway company and hides his gay relationship from Youko for a very particular reason.

I cannot recommend this drama enough! It's such a gentle study on loss, loneliness, time and the transience of living as well as on the importance of being honest with yourself.

Set in both Kamakura and Busan, the scenery is soothing to the eye. All the actors are fantastic (including appearances from Lily Franky, Iiura Arata and Uno Shouhei), the dry humour in Nogi Akiko's script is delightful.

I am very fond of this project and hope you will give it a chance!

The length of this drama is 1 hour and 51 minutes.

Notes:

Kamakura is a seaside town and a popular tourist destination in Kanagawa Prefecture about an hour from Tokyo.

Hako-nee: Youko's nickname. The first kanji in her name (葉) can be read as ha, a leaf. Nee is older sister.

Shibuya and Meguro are special wards in Tokyo.

In Japanese, the word for enrichment is uruoi, moisture. This is why Youko touches her face when Momeki asks whether there's any enrichment in her enclosure.

Enoden that Ushio works for is short for Enoshima Electric Railway. It's a local railway line connecting Kamakura with Fujisawa.

Tatamu: The reason Nikaidou-sensei talks about folding stuff is because in Japanese this verb also means to bring something to an end.

Bonseki: Ancient Japanese art of creating miniature landscapes on trays using sand and pebbles. The artwork is temporary and will be swept clean once finished.

Wabi-sabi: aesthetic concepts that center on the acceptance of transience and imperfection.

Sabishii: This story is a study on loneliness. However, in Japanese sabishii contains more meanings than just lonely; it's both lonely and sad. I've translated it both ways depending on the situation but please know that they are all related in the original text. Sabishii is the feeling of not having or lacking something. Youko also connects it to the aesthetic of sabi.

Hoshino Gen who plays Momeki Ken is one of my favourite artists (he's also a really great actor and an overall funny person), so I'll just plug a couple of his songs here haha.

Can I kiss you? So you like me? Yes. I like you too. Both in high school and now. I like you.

Some wants are like daydreams, beyond one's reach. Living only in your fantasies. Wandering if you could, if you should put an end to it once and for all.
