[edit]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.

  • Both dramas have good looking actors. And both dramas tell a story about host club.

  • Both dramas have good looking ikemen actors. In Happy Boys they're serving coffee while in GiraGira they're hosts serving alcohol (and their looks) to women....

    The plot seems kinda interesting, I might watch it. As for the orther comment; of course there are guys who hate their job. But isn't it the same for every job, it always has people who dislike doing it. I'm sure there are enough guys who don't hate it and just see it as work, otherwise the whole host club thing wouldn't work, if everyone would hate/quit their job. And well, at least the hosts don't have to sleep with their guests like prostitues have to so I don't really see the point of posting this here... It's a dorama, based on a host club yeah but does that mean it's a bad dorama or story because of that? I don't think so, dorama's based on murder, thriller or psychological stories aren't nice too but they can still be good...

    As interesting as this drama may be, do you guys realize that these guys must hate their jobs? I mean, all a host is, is an emotional hooker. Their job is to get you drunk and make you think they are the most amazing thing in the world so you request them again. Heck, in some host bars, it is a front for prostitution. Sorry but, these dramas do nothing for me.

      LMAO! Unfortunately what you say is true. But I will try to keep thoughts of depressed hookers out of my thoughts when I watch dramas like this. .........I will TRY XD
