    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.

    very good 8th episode...is she starting to gain more self-confidence, I hope so as I still don't like the way she follows him around like a puppy. I am enjoying the contrast between Toru and Asahina as they are both very good actors and also good looking.;-)

      with things as they are, there is likely to be a show down of some kind between the two of them. After all, he wasn;t too happy with the girl's decision and he seems really hateful towards Hyuga.

    In 8 ep, then Hyuga Toru a little lost it, did you got the same vibe like in Jerry Maguire movie? Besides that, I cannot believe Toru was so betrayed, the press conference was like last nail in the coffin!! I loveeee Sawaki Chihiro, her request for the couple photo was great, and her fake laughter - hilarious!!! Can't wait for 9ep!!
