BR 2-3: The OC

" 'In Chino, you don't have dreams,' said Ryan. 'Dreams don't come true.' "
(Josh, 2007,p.19)

This words are by Ryan who is hero of this story when he talks his lawyer Sandy. Ryan is a boy who is about seventeen years old and from Chino. He grows in complex and bad family. He comes to live Sandy's house in Orenge County. He becomes friend with Sandy's son Seth, falls in love Marissa who is neighbor of Sandy's house, and experiences things he has never seen there.

This story is a drama which broadcasted in the U.S. for teenagers. Marrisa and her friends are Aristocracy, Sandy's family is middle class, and Ryan hasn't money and family. Futhermore, there are scenes Ryan harassed by rich boys and girls. This is a love story, and also a story which thought-provoking us social problem, so I want not only teenagers but also adults to watch this story.
