Suprisingly good, I better like ohno's character here than in maou. Glad to saw katase nana, she was really entertaining.

A Cute Drama

At first glance, it seems like a cute, cheerful drama with not much substance. However, if you look past the over the top acting which happens every now and then, you'll realise that this story actually does happen in real life. People losing jobs, people forced to do jobs they don't like, making the new people do all the dirty work. This drama gives you a glimpse into the entertainment world and thanks to the humour, it doesn't get too serious. A simple plot, nothing complex or complicated. Its nice to see Ohno Satoshi playing a character that is very different from the one he played in Maou. The rest of the cast is good as well. Overall, a fun and pleasant watch.

Don't Worry, Be Happy

If you're looking for a heart-warming pick-me-up type of drama, then look no further! With the ever adorable Ohno Satoshi as its lead, this drama featured kids, fun songs, dancing, comedy, romance and dreams fulfilled. Although a bit too short with a cramped final episode, this one of the best dramas of the Winter 2009 season and well worth the watch!
