Makimura Kimiko, freelance journalist and city-girl extraordinaire, marries into a traditional Japanese family. Most overbearing of the Yamamoto Family members is Isojiro's mother, Shimako, who seems to think Kimiko is the perfect wife whose knowledge of the traditional Japanese arts knows no bounds. Kimiko on the other hand is sloppy, a bad cook unless it happens to be microwavable, and couldn't tell a shamisen from a bagpipe if her life depended on it. Bombarded by customs, Kimiko's only desire is to never step foot in the Main House again. But with the interference of her husband, Isojiro, who can't seem to say no to his mother, Kimiko finds herself back in a place she calls Hell and smack in the midst of some crazy tradition her in-laws want her to participate in.

What would you do if you were a city-girl extraordinaire who got married into a traditional Japanese family; your mother-in-law made and expected you to superbly do traditional Japanese arts; had a wicked witch as a sister-in-law; and an immature, two-face husband? Indeed, this family is hell! I can feel Makimura Kimiko's misery.

Nonetheless, this 9-episode drama is amusing.

I'm keeping it 'coz I might rewatch it.
