Synopsis

Michi, a 26 year old high school math teacher, tentatively accepts her boyfriend's proposal of marriage, uncertain of her love for him but feeling pressure from her father and society to do what is expected of her. Hikaru, a 17 year old boy frustrated by his home life with his single mother and having been expelled from many high schools for bad behavior, enters Michi's class as a new transfer student. As their relationship grows they realize that they both feel that they have lost themselves to the pressures of those around them, and it is this common bond that draws them dangerously close. What follows is a heart-wrenching story of forbidden love where Michi must face society's judgement for corrupting a minor, abandoning her fiance, and disappointing her parents and co-workers.

Watched this jdorama last weekends and I actually liked it because it depicts a reality, a world that we are living right now, the discrimination, misjudgement, and how a person should live properly in front of the public eye...

One of the few jdorama's that is beyond normal or possible to happen, but because of its unrealistic plot and story, it makes it as one of the few unique and interesting jdorama's I ever watched. torn between a human and robot, a love that is impossible to happen in real life. One of my favorites.

Robot maker, Kronos Heaven, finally develops "Night Tenjo", the perfect male humanoid programmed to be devoted and completely loyal to his lover. The company chooses temp worker Izawa Riko to take part in a 5-day free trial. At first, Riko only sees Night as a household appliance. But when she finds out how deep Night's devotion to herself is, Riko finds herself falling in love with him. Joining the love triangle is Asamoto Soshi, a distinguished young executive at her company who has feelings for her. --Fuji TV

Erika Sawajiri

Look at this very popular artist (Erika Sawajiri) in Japan who stared in the infamous 1 Liter of Tears getting pissed off in front of the camera while promoting her movie Closed Note...



Watch out for the words Betsu ni (I don't care) with a killer b*t*h glare, when she asked about what she feels working with famous stars.
