    This isn't a boring remake of a cinderella type story. The plot was very refreshing but some area of the characters became predictable. I thought the music was wonderful in the drama. I would buy the soundtrack if it were for sale. The male lead was great and so was the female. The actors had great chemistry and really made this drama one of my favorites. If you are thinking about watching this, don't just watch it. You won't be disappointed. The drama is a short refreshing watch.

    Went in not expecting a whole lot but came out feeling refreshed & happy!

    Totally enjoyed this one despite having reservations about the female lead. Both Oguri Shun & Ishihara Satomi did an amazing job in this Drama.

    Rich Man Poor Woman was cute, funny, sweet & extremely endearing with a great score & OST. It's one of those Dramas that re-uses the same songs throughout & I know some may not like that but personally I feel it binds everything together thus helping maintain the mood. I think for me; that's what really made this Drama stick in my mind.

    Plenty of problems. Typical Japanese style non-romantic kisses; random jumps in the story, not really anything earth-shatteringly new either as far as story goes &

  • OGURI SHUN a great Japanese actor is in both dramas. The thrilling part is the gap differences between the characters, plot, story line, and more. Please try it out and enjoy

  • Both dramas are about ambitious, talented entrepreneurial men in Tokyo and the issues surrounding their personal struggles and love lives.

      the lead actor's name is Oguri Shun, not Jun...I think you probably confused Shun with Matsumoto Jun.

    The first episode surprised me a lot. I was first watching it only because Shun, and I wanted to see if his perfomance had changed at all, I was right. He changed his repetitive lonely-sexy-quiet characters for one that is EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE! except, of course, for the sexy part. I have lots of expectations for this story, it surely promises to be the best of the year.
