Hello everyone, how are you? I hope you're all well. I recently watched a Japanese drama. Unlike Korean dramas, Japanese dramas are shorter. I've actually watched several other titles. However, this drama is quite interesting and fits the Japanese theme.

The drama's story is about the Yakuza. Japan and the Yakuza have a common bond. The title of the drama I watched was "The Yakuza Boss's Beloved." In fact, it only had eight episodes. Very few. Why did I switch from Korean dramas to Japanese dramas? I was curious about the fashion.

For me, the fashion in Japanese and Korean dramas is very different. That's my only reason to watch this drama. So, what about the story? It's quite interesting. It tells the story of Japanese gangsters called the Yakuza. This kind of story seems to be repeated and produced often.

The story is about a young Yakuza boss named Odagiri who falls in love with a woman named Makoto. Odagiri also has a very good professional background. In fact, he's a department head. Why is that interesting? But the story is intertwined with the relationship between the parents.

Odagiri is an orphan and was adopted by a Yakuza boss. Meanwhile, Makoto has a less than ideal relationship with his mother. She's a nasty hairdresser, viewing Odagiri as an asset to be exploited to meet her own needs.

In Japan, however, this isn't the case. Parents can work well into old age. In fact, the main point of the story is that Makoto breaks up with his mother, taking a small amount of money that Makoto had given her to keep her out of Makoto's life.

The story begins with an affair. Makoto discovers his partner is having an affair with a new employee at the office. Odagiri saves Makoto. Makoto and his girlfriend have been living together, but no one knows about it. Their relationship is not one of equality.

Makoto prepares meals, but is sometimes disrespected by her boyfriend. How does this story end? Odagiri gives up his Yakuza status. He lives as an office worker and lives happily with Makoto. In the story, Odagiri gives up his Yakuza status just to save Makoto.

The story isn't boring. It's just that I'm still not used to Japanese dramas. The story is interesting. In this drama, I still enjoyed the fashion for the female characters. That's all I can say. What do you think? Do you share my thoughts? Have you seen this drama?
