Taiga Kusunoki (Jun Matsumoto) is a less than popular, tsundere, second-generation actor. Although he is the son of the famous and popular actor Kotaro Kusunoki (Shiro Ito) his career is far below the level of his father's. Taiga develops an inferiority complex due to the huge difference between his image and his father's popularity to the point that his management company struggles to find work for him. Due to his lack of roles, he spends his days with Keita Ueno (Hideyuki Kasahara), a fellow second-generation actor with a similar plight as Taiga. As fate goes, the two friends go sky diving one day and Taiga loses control of his paracute, landing himself in a tree several miles away from his destination point. Shiori (Takeuchi Yuko), a beautiful cheerful woman, rescues him. Laughing away all her worries, Shiori is the exact opposite of Taiga and a huge fan of his famous father.

  1-Why did i watched this : yeah yeah bcz of Matsumoto Jun, the main reason i choosed to watch this drama is his presence, i wouldn't even gave it a shot if it he wasn't the lead male.
  
  2-Storyline/Cast : the love relationship between a single old mom and a second generation young actor, of course there's the the age problem, his failing career problem, family, friends i would rather if they focused more on his acting career but in general the story wasn't bad but not that great neither.
  
  3-Acting/Cast : Like i said it's Matsumoto Jun that made this watchable, i believe that his role in this drama was nicely done plus Takeuchi Yuko did her character in a nice way, the believable acting was a strength point that counts for this drama.
  
  4-Music : I still remember it and sing it sometimes and i rarely remember any drama's music so it was extremly good.
  
  5-Rewatch value : No it's not rewatchable, i mean if u liked it from the first watch u will ruin it if u watch again exept some cases of course.
  
  6-The ending : It was kind of cool, not bad i guess. Anyway, it's acceptable.
  
  7-Overall : Anything Matsumoto Jun touches turn to gold that's what i've been thinking while watching this drama nothing more.
  
  P.S : if u are not a fan of Matsumoto Jun or jdramas then u may end up hating this so choose wisely. read more

  Unlike my fellow reviewers so far I happened to like this drama. Although it is very slow at the beginning and it is not Matsumoto best drama. They rest of the cast makes up for this. You can relate to Shiori's struggling with the loss of her husband and being a single parent but also with her developing feelings for Taiga against her better judgement. Not to mention the kids who play in this completely steal the scene and you can't help but love them. I would recommend you atleast give it a try. It's only 10 episodes sometimes the things people say are the worst end up being the best thing you've ever seen. It's all a matter of opinion. Best of luck! Have fun watching! read more

  Mean Girl Ah Chu

  Both dramas are about women helping the male leads learn the ropes of show business. In Mean Girl Ah Chu, Ping Zhi is completely innocent and clueless, so he desperately needs Ah Chu's guidance. In Natsu no Koi wa Nijiiro ni Kagayaku, Shiori helps Taiga step out of the shadow of his famous father.
