Sonagi.

It's a single show drama: her brother, who works in Korea, dies mysteriously and is ruled a suicide, but she doesn't believe it and snoops around to find the truth... She actually speaks some English in various scenes throughout the movie. :inlove:

It's probably due to the gold (along with the silk) used in the kimono:

Thanks for info. :thumbsup:

A $80K+ (USD) kimono :shocked: It goes well with a $45K French Polynesian black pearl necklace and a classy girl. :)

Even more thanks. :bow:

So... the kimono must be a rental. :confused: Cheaper than buying one I guess.
If I ever go to an omiai and the girl is wearing something like this, I marry her on the spot. :sweat:

Probably couldn't buy one... It's most likely one of a kind, which would make it even more valuable than the initial $80K tag. :sweat:
