Sasaki Kuranosuke's character gets laid off work so he goes off back to work as a host but he keeps this secret from his wife Hara Sachie. Of course the current young bloods don't accept him but he earns their trust and fights to protect the club. But you know exactly whats going to happen , his wife will of course find out ....domestic trouble ensues and then there will be loads scenes where he has to bow his head down to plea and get humiliated. Its not a bad drama but its all too predictable. Its a pity as Sasaki Kuranosuke and Maya Miki are really good actors but its not a great vehicle to show case their acting skills.

Its not that great, but its watchable. Since its only 8 episodes, the story feels a little rushed in the first few episodes. Plot? At first, the main character isn't accepted by the younger guys, he starts helping people in every episode, he gets accepted, trouble comes along, younger guys start supporting him.....sounds familiar? Basically, nothing special about this drama, but if you'd like a little more insight into the world of hosts, go ahead and watch it.
