Synopsis

Matsushima Nanako grew up in a very poor family and is thus determined to marry a rich man so that she will never have to go through poverty ever again, and is named the "gokon queen" in her quest to find her man. Tsutsumi Shinichi is a brilliant academic (Fields prize winner - Nobel Prize equivalent in Mathematics) who gave up his studies to take over his deceased father's fish-shop. They meet through a doctor's "gokon" (group date) and she falls in love with him under the mistaken assumption that he is a very rich man...

One of my top 2 all time favorites. Amazing cast and chemistry. Over each episode you really care more and more about everyone of the characters and the develop so deeply as well. The music was fantastic and story was so touching and Nanako Matsushima was so beautiful in this drama.

Love it!

My favorite Japanese love story drama. I love it. Tsutsumi Shin-ichi is so appropriate as a humble but intelligent guy. I love him!
