Synopsis: Chisato is a homeless girl constantly on the run from the loan sharks who are after her for the 100million yen her father owes them. Just as she was cornered, Ookura Shinzou, the president of a large toy and game company came to her rescue and paid off her debt. However, in return, she was more or less forced into being his wife for the month of life he said he has left. A month later, just when she thought she had fulfilled the contract, it was revealed that  she has to live in a castle with the 6 adopted sons of Shinzou and act the role of the mother for 3 months while fulfilling other conditions before her debt can be cleared. And, to top it off, all of the sons are distrusting and each have their own past and issues to deal with and none of them are happy about her appearance and tried to get her to leave. How will Chisato handle life with 6 guys who would sooner have her gone? And why did Shinzou pick her and put her into this situation?Main Cast:
Review: Well, I'd just like to point out that. For one, this drama has good looking male cast. =P Eye candies never hurt. Half of them were familiar faces and half of them were new to me. The acting isn't too shabby either. The acting of the actor for Akira, the youngest son at age 12, could have been better but hey, he's a kid. Like typical Idol JDramas, lighthearted humor and exaggeration all the way, but they did not over do it, so it's good. Although it is not even funny enough to be classified as comedy IMO, I think that's still the genre label for this drama. *shrugs* It is entertaining enough. Engaging without being too serious/depressing. What kept me wondering the whole time was actually, which guy Chisato is going to end up with. Aside from the youngest (he's 12, so duh) and the oldest (not going to give a spoiler here, but he's out) brothers,  there are 4 possibilities. Although by episode 10, it is seriously starting to lean towards one of them. That's also what keeps me on the edge waiting for the last episode for XD. Nevertheless, nice chemistry between the cast and nice story pace. Ah, but speaking of story pace, the only big fault I found with this show was the speed at which the brothers were taken in with her(come on, it is no spoiler, you all know that's what was going to happen). I guess they were trying to fit in other aspects of the plot, such as the conspiracy etc, so they didn't have much time to focus only on the interactions between Chisato and the brothers.Anyhow, I recommend this show =P. That's the bottom line. |
