Synopsis

Until now, Mako (Rie Tomosaka) thought that politics had absolutely nothing to do with her. That is until her fiance, Takashi (Eisaku Yoshida), suddenly became a candidate for lower house elections of the Diet. In support of Takashi's aim to "bring a fresh breeze to politics," she enters an unfamiliar world. There she meets the holders of the real power in politics, the adept private secretaries and the power behind the throne - the wives of the parliamentarians. Giddy from the eccentric and driven personalities she meets, the likes of which she has never before encountered, Mako stands with Takashi as they are buffeted by the waves of politics.

Political drama

6 / 10

MonsterZero65 · 2010

The cast was talented but I just could not get into this drama. I follow politics but just was not impacted by this drama very much.

Mildly good

MonsterZero-65 · 2007

This was a good drama. A little different story than what you usually see. The acting was strong and it was interesting but nothing spectacular. Worth watching if it replays again.

One vote for the new politician

A good dorama with a solid cast, nice subplots, great music score. But when the characters you sympathize with start making bad decisions, the connection breaks.
