Synopsis

Based on a hit manga, this adaptation depicts the life of a married man Nanase Kohei after he returned to his former job as a male host. He woos the clients with his gentle and caring nature, and soon retrieves his former credit as the ace of the club. However, the transition back for this middle-aged man is not without its challenges. Afraid that his wife will find out about this job, Nanase is also garnering jealousy and displeasure from the younger hosts. Throughout the course of his employment, he demonstrates to others that hosting should not be the vulgar occupation it has become where the entire goal is to make the women frivolously spend money, rather, it is about a human connection that is so often overlooked.

I'm really excited for this drama. It sounds very interesting, and a different take on the whole hosting thing.

Sasaki Kuranosuke + Maya Miki = ULTIMATE WIN.

Just those two alone make this drama worth watching, lol.

I first got interested in Giragira (obviously) because Sachie Hara is in it. But heck, it would also be interesting to see how Kuranosuke Sasaki will pull this off, plus Miki Maya is always great! And, this will be the first time I'd ever watch Shohei Miura in a drama (I skipped Gokusen 3, thank you Roll Eyes

)...

Here are the teaser and the tailer. Found them on tudou, just in case you can't view the videos on the official site.

Looking forward to Friday. Smile

I'm waiting for this drama VERY much, too!!
I'm curious for watching Miura Shohei "in action" for my first time, and I'm very happy to rejoin about Maya Miki and Sasaki Kuranosuke, and the plot story is very interesting in my opinion, but... The real reason for this excitement is _HIM_ : BLONDE SHUNJI! w000t

P.S. no one is interested in subbing it? I'm so sad anytime I go to check on fansub wiki Crying

The trailer was more violent than I expected, but it was really exciting. I'm looking forward to this even more now!
