	Refs:	GG5 難しい 4: 難しい顔をする　scowl; glower; look displeased [glum]; look serious [grave]; wear a grave look
	Comments:	Saw on 大河ドラマ, rather idiomatic. “look glum” (sad) and “glower” (anger) seem a bit overprecise and strong here – this feels like simply “displeasure” or “consternation”. OTOH, may want to accord closely with glosses in 難しい.
