It's always interesting to learn about a new dialect. And from what I can tell from the trailer, Okinawa is very different from standard Japanese.

A romance dramedy set in Okinawa. Should be interesting.

Google Maps showed me that Okinawa is between China and Japan, so there is a distinct region/culture/language difference that should be fascinating if given room in the show.

@Kikugi
喜 - ki , 屋 - ya , 武 - [n]
き- ki ゃ- ya ん - n

That's why it's three. It's pronounced [Kiyan] and spelled [Kyan] because it's a proper name and also the name of a cape in Japan (if I'm not confused).

I know Okinawan has different rules from Japanese, but I still find it peculiar how three kanji can give something as short as Kyan
