The story was a bit absurd, but that's what drew my attention to this drama. In contrast to the crazy story, the characters were much more believable and left me feeling like I could really relate to their feelings.

Koyuki does an incredible job of making a successful, bright, strong career woman into a soft and confused human being. And Momo (played by Matsumoto Jun) is just adorable enough to melt your heart! All the actors were well chosen, and I loved the dialogue and delivery. It could make you laugh, sigh, and burst into tears in a single scene!

There were a few things people might not like about the show though. For one, the phychologist with a chihuahua was amusing at times, but spelled situations out almost too clearly, making the characters seem incapable of figuring out their problems for themselves. (It kind of insults the viewers intelligence too.) Also, some of the side characters and their stereotypical roles made the story far too predictable at times.

Still, overall, I think any weakness of the show was far overshadowed by great characters and excellent actors who played their roles perfectly. This is deffinately worth watching!
