Greatest Friendship drama I've ever seen.

10 / 10

The story is simple. It's about two women from different background who loves the same man. They have to struggle over their conciousness to choose between friendship or sacrifice it to fight over the same man. The drama is very touching and the good casts compliments the story which blends into a perfect mix of love story and friendship. Highly recommended.
By the way, the soundtrack is so good.

All-time great

One of the best of all time! Whereas it did not have the drawing power of any of the Honami Suzuki dramas, Narumi Yasuda's acting convinces of why she is a legendary idol. Her partnership with Akina Nakamori is convincing as the odd couple who in the end sees that their friendship is the only cure against betrayals by men and abandonment by other people. Watch it - you'll enjoy the story.
