Synopsis
Nagase Tomoya is a famous pop star with two secrets: He's been keeping the existence of his serious relationship from his fans; and if that wasn't bad enough, he's not nearly as cool as his image makes him out to be. To make life more difficult he has to deal with problems at home: a father who doesn't want him to marry his daughter and family members who might leak his secret.

Wow! This is one of the best series I had ever watch! Very funny & touching at the same time. I never know that Tomoya can be so funny! And after watching this show, I start to like Yuko too. She is so sweet looking & natural in her acting. Looking forward to her new series with Tsuyoshi Domoto.

Watch out for its theme song Hitoribotchi no Haburashi 'cause its mesmerising. Tomoya Nagase was mesmerising too with his mimical face and heart-touching character!

7. Highly Recommended [Rating: 10/10]
Nagase is damn handsome, macho, kawaii, cute and lovely.

In this drama he have 2 different personality.
1- In front the media, he appear as a cool tough guy.
2-The real him, funny, crazy, and family man.

Humm... i prefer the 1st personality!! He look more macho than wearing that spectacle and that hair band? the thing on his head! It is so annoying.

Well i don't really think there is any extreme touching part that will make you cry. I think they just trying to exaggerate the part. I don't think there is anything sad at all.

And the funny part, some of it are cute but some are stupid. Trying to make something not funny, funny. More like a stupid joke.

But oh well, Nagase is a major hunk so i will still give 10/10 to this story. Afterall i love the theme song by Tokio!! Ne~

Since most dramas are love stories there tends to be alot of copy cats and tendencies; but this drama decides to add a very unique and interesting twist! The idea of a ordinary housewife and a pop star makes this drama very interesting and entertaining from the start. Not only did was this drama entertaining but it also taught me alot about the workings of a Japanese family and how they cherish family values. On the other hand this drama also has its pitfalls. I got tired of the "earning trust" theme which the played out too long. Also the main character is both comedic and anoying. However I still recomend this drama to everyone

20. Tugs at the heartstrings [Rating: 10/10]
Very few dramas can deliver such a thick plot and at the same time possess a lot of originality. This drama does both, and therefore it is not surprising so many people, including me, gave it such high remarks. The drama doesn't tread on just one single plot, but three or four, but doesn't confuse you by bringing them out all at once, but rather in single increments, and while one part of the story is taking place, another is developing in the background. Also, the drama doesn't leave anything unfinished, nor does it end it in a rush. I really like it when the drama ties everything in nicely and doesn't leave you wandering or questioning some of the plots. To top it off, it just has so many touching moments that it's hard not to like the drama nor the characters in there! A must see!

Hitoribotchi no Haburashi is also one of the BEST songs I've heard.

Yuichiro gets married in a VERY fast paced first episode. The rest of the episodes, he must conquer one family member per episode. Thus each episode has a memorable storyline with non-stop action. All the characters are loveable, and the excited pace of this drama make it one of the BEST I have seen. (I've seen about 10 full drama) For people with short attention spans that need excitement and need to smile/yell out loud. The soundtrack is awesome as well.

All the artistes seemed to have a great deal of chemistry going on among them..and you'd hardly find any boring moments in it. And of course, Tomoya-kun was able to carry out his role so well you'd find no fault with him. I'd say any fan of J-dorama SHOULDN'T give this a miss.

show started off very well, light hearted and funny and then started to stumble very early on and never got back on track. the middle had too much filler about the uninteresting arai family members, altho the ep with koyuki (from last samurai) was pretty good. final couple eps were total turnoff, no way someone who betray their family over something so petty, no way would a couple so in love breakup at crucial situation. *rolls eyes*

nagase tomoyo - competent but tends to overact alot... does he only know how to sing one song?
Takeuchi Yuko - has the cutest smile ever, very natural performance, not enough for her to do except look cute and sometimes act sad or angry
1st sis - annoying, selfish, ugly
2nd sis - annoying, selfish, boring
3rd sis - annoying, selfish (sense a pattern?), but gets more likable or rather pitiable
lil kid - cute but nothing special
older kid - boring, unlikable
dad - one of the worst fathers ive seen, he's not forceful enough when hes mad and doesnt show enough emotion when hes sad
chief and manager - very well acted and funny, danta-san from good luck is brilliant here


also theres way too many manipulative depressing scenes that involve crying and everyone brooding over how pathetic they are... (at least one per ep) and what kinda @#$% sugarcoated BS ending was that? 'the most disgustly mushy couple in the world' indeed.

I never would think he could be such an amazing actor (also because I didn't like him very much before :P). So, he really give an excellent performance! Then, this drama has, yes, a ''stupid'' story, some corny sentences, but you can't deny that it is a sooo sweet drama, when at the end of the episode you find yourself crying.

It's really between a 6 and a 7 I feel. The show has a number of issues, but at the same time it ahs strengths. I think really the show accomplishes nothing, they end up where they began essentially. Acting is solid and the TWO songs that are in the show are likable, but you may get sick of them. All the characters are done well except the main couple who don't really get much in the ways of development or screentime compared to everyone else. It's a good show sometimes, and sometimes I press pause and go read a comic book for an hour then come back to watch 15 more minutes. Classic cheesy drama, but I'm glad I watched it.

It wasn't exactly the best drama I've seen, but it doesn't mean that I didn't find this drama enjoyable and yet touching at the same time. It was the typical type of drama: cheesy with a bit of comedy. I had a great time watching it though, especially since the drama wasn't all about the love story but it gives special importance to family.

I found Tomoya Nagase really silly, funny and good looking. I was contented with his performance, overall. Takeuchi Yuko is adorable! Sakura got annoying at times for me, but most of the time she was just being cute and hilariously mushy. And a special mention to Shinohara Ryoko, because I thought she stood out and she's absolutely beautiful and very talented. :)

This is a good, heart-felt, family-oriented drama. It has a tendency to go overboard sometimes, but the entire series was really very entertaining. The popstar angle was incredibly funny and I think the series clicked [the first time] because there is an associated fascination with popstars. Tomoya Nagase pulled off the suave-on-the-outside, geek-on-the-inside Sakuraba Yuichiiro very well. I was surprised by the sheer decency of his acting. :p The other family members were also highly interesting... I almost thought everyone was a basketcase. Then I settled to thinking the eldest sister was the crazy one.

It really was very amusing.

A dumbed-down drama in which a pop star invades an ordinary family to play busybody and village idiot. When not acting the buffoon, Nagase Tomoya sputters moralistic speeches as hollow as the music score. My heart goes to the behind-the-scene janitor who has to mop the gallon of tears Mr. Pop Star sheds every time he gets emotional.

54. Good, but Overrated [Rating: 8/10]
This drama is overrated. If I weren’t such a fangirl, I would have given this drama a 7/10, which for me means “mediocre”.

I liked the concept and the storyline wasn’t bad, but I found the plot to be drawn out. Especially in the last few episodes. I mean, regardless of the fact that Tomoya-kun AND Yuko-chan were both on screen, I sometimes got bored.

Don’t get me wrong. I LIKED the drama. But it could have been two episodes shorter.

The cast was superb. If anything, it was the talent that held my attention. Yuko-chan is, of course, my favourite actress. Period. Tomoya-kun is my ultimate wet-panty-causer. Aside from these two, you have Akiyoshi Kumiko, who plays my favourite character (Kaede); Shinohara Ryoko, who is the most charismatic actress I’ve come across; Utsui Ken, ‘nuff said; and even Kamiki Ryunosuke, who is the cutest lil’ boy EVAH.

There were a lot of great moments between the Arai family members and each character was strong and willful. I can understand the high ratings of this show, but I blame these very ratings for causing the writers to draw out an otherwise entertaining drama. >>sigh<<

Watching this at the moment (up till the '4th Try!' [which means the 4th Episode]) ! This drama is extremely, extremely, extremely GOOD! Nagase Tomoya is such a sugoiiiii actor! He can really protrayed Sakuraba Yuichiro well! Frankly speaking, I prefer the kakoii Yuichiro rather than the sloppy one...ee...my personal opinion lah...But then again, the sloppy Yuichiro is very loveable~ ^_^ Anyway, back to the plot....it's about this guy called "Sakuraba Yuichiro" who is a huge superstar. In front of the screens, he is a very cool and suave guy. Girls drool over him~ But in real life, he's just a normal and simple guy. In fact, he's those sloppy type who wears glasses, hairbands and huge sweaters. Besides that, he also has a sweet girlfriend, Sakura whom he know for 6 months. One day, he proposed to Sakura and Sakura agrees!! ^_^ That's where the story start whereby Yuchiro have to go through a lot of funny obstacles in order to be with dear Sakura-chan! ^_^ First family, then the media...Each episode has its own story! This drama is really humourous at times and certain scenes are very, very touching! I love the song sang by Yuichiro in this drama! Absolutely fabulous!!!!!!! People please! Get this drama and drool over kakoii Nagase Tomoya!!! ^_^

Nagase is damn handsome, macho, kawaii, kakkoii, cute and lovely.

In this drama he have 2 different style.
1- In front of the media, he acted as a cool tough guy.
2-The real him, funny, crazy, and family man.

Humm... how much i prefer the 1st personality!! He look more macho than wearing that spectacle and the thing on his head! It is so annoying.

Well i don't really think there is any extreme touching part that will make you cry. -_-

And the funny part, some of it are cute but some are stupid. Trying to make something not funny, funny. More like a stupid joke.

But oh well, Nagase is a major hunk so i will still give 10/10 coz its a nice drama to watch~. i also love the theme song by Tokio!! Ne~

I adore the show! Partly because the plot was very interesting and also because of the change in character in Sakurabara/Arai Yuichiro when he is working and at home.

Nagase Tomoya and Takeuchi Yuko were great. The rest of the cast was great too. The funny and emotional moments are timed perfectly. A very interesting story line about the diffenent personalities of a rock star. The subtle things there threw in were great. i.e. the couple's clothings, how they talk on the phone etc.

hilarious yet kakkoiia r/ship that couldn't possibly happen to ordinary ppl like us!
9. Comments by Eyrien* [Rating: 5/10]
Interesting drama where you get to see Nagase Tomoya act really "kakkoi" and REALLY "dasai" He stars as a popular male singer/songwriter who although outward appearances show him as kakkoi, in reality he's a big "dasai" nerd, who'd cute in a dorky way. He falls in love with a normal girl, proposes to her, and then they have to deal with her family and his popularity, and not letting the secret of their engagement slip out into the general public. Really not a bad drama at all, just for some reason not my type.

I felt very good watching this drama. Never came across a story like quite like this one.
11. Comments by dnie [Rating: 9/10]
Nagase plays a top pop superstar who looks darn kakko ii in they eye of
public and fans but his other face, that only his closest and loved ones can see,
is a quirky, too-happy and perhaps annoying, but very much lovable and
a person hungry for love and attention. So when he met the love of his life,
Sakura, he cant think of anything but to marry her. Well, Sakura has all the qualities that
he seeks, besides being very kawaii, she is full of love. The comedy starts when
Sakuraba Yuiichiro has to marry in Sakura's family in order to be a part of family.
He has to convince them how worthy he's to be their family member-the father is not
keen on him, the oldest sis is a business freak, the second is allergic to men, the third is
manipulative. He also has this cho kakko ii teenage niece fallin in love with his
class teacher(again!) and the youngest niece who is sided coz he's no father.
The dorama shows how he works hard to prove himself and to be accepted in the
family as what he is. I give this dorama a thumb and recommended for everybody!
oh, dont forget the haunting "Hitoribochi Haburashi" to add in your collection
of good J-Ent songs. sigh *dreamy*

This is an enjoyable and loveable series. The love between Yuichiro and Sakura is really sweet and genuine and all the members of Sakura's family are really awesome too, from the father to the sisters to the grandsons. Has a lot of silly, cute, funny and touching moments.
21. Comments by Jalapeno [Rating: 10/10]
Here's Tokio's frontman Nagase Tomoya acting oh-so-loony when he's with "love-of-his-life" Takeuchi Yuko. A notable comedic performance by Nagase - from a ubercool Japanese pop idol to a slobbering, lovestruck boyfriend Sakuraba Yuichiro of Arai Sakura. Pretty neat, really. And it does remind you of "Notting Hill" but to a much comedic level. :)
22. Comments by yume [Rating: 7/10]
A solidly amusing story with new battles to be tackled every episode. It never gets totally boring, but it never gets extremely, psychotically good either. Nagase Tomoya and Takeuchi Yuko have the cutest chemistry though!

48. Comments by Szabotage [Rating: 9/10]
Really funny, really sappy. Nagase Tomoya shines as a pop star who in his heart is really a nerd longing for a cozy home. I laughed until I cried every time he and Takeuchi Yuko did their disgustingly cute couple routine, especially at the reactions of all the relatives and his managers. Good stories, too, especially the one about the brother. Very much a feel-good drama!
49. Comments by bellagy [Rating: 8/10]
very funny Tomoya rocks
50. Comments by Hoshi [Rating: 8/10]
The idea for this show is fresh, and I like it. Nagase's portrayal of Sakuraba is kinda OTT, but I suppose it compliments quite well with Takeuchi's Sakura. The storyline is pleasant, with every episode concluding something. The family here is better than that in the second Mukodono. And unfortunately, the super-star-with-boy-next-door-character idea got stale on the second installment as well.

no need to say more. you just GOT to watch this. Nagase Tomoya surprised me with this role and he's super funny. a must watch drama for everyone. at first, some characters were annoying (like Kaede) but they got better and i end up liking everyone basicly. i am NOT gonna watch Mukodono 2004 b/c i liked the original too much and I dont want a sequel that's not really a sequel but just a retelling of the same story to mess me up. my 2nd fave dorama thus far.

72. Comments by Nermal [Rating: 8/10]
At first I couldn't stand the silliness of Yuichiro (Nagase's character) but I've grown to like him thoughout the series. Some parts are very touching and I was also surprised to see Aiba in this drama about superstars dating since he himself, had a similar story come out in 2002. (although without the happy end). Very nice drama! Just a tad over-acted maybe.. ^^; Still worth the watch.. don't expect anything too serious..
73. Comments by arashilove [Rating: 10/10]
The perfect family drama. The plot is unique and interesting, the characters are all so appealing and hilarious. My favourites were Kaede, Satsuki, Tsutomu, and of course Yu-chan and Sakura! Their adoration for each other was charming. The last two episodes are very sad, though.

This drama is great. I love Nagase Tomoya, he is so cute and adorable in this show. Mukodono is a typical japanese drama which each eposide is dedicated to help a family member/friend in the time of need. Overall the drama is good, but I am little disappointed at the ending. I think the ending was kind of abrupt because they did not tied up all the loose ends.

Nagase is throughly wacky as cool superstar idol one moment and mushy husband the next. Takeuchi Yuko has also left me a good impression as the cute and loving wife. "Hitoribotchi no Haburashi" is really a gem of a song, Nagase/Sakuraba's longing voice brings out the most touching moments of this series.

the leads are terrific and make a nice couple. they seem to genuinely care of each other. tomoya is competent altho he tends to overact alot, yuko has the cutest smile and is very sweet. the rest of the arai family are totally unlikable, their very annoying, selfish, and dull. it gets worse when the story becomes centered around them. the manager and chief are very funny tho. ending was kinda stupid. totally ridiculous that masaki would do that to his own family, more ridiculous that they would break up at a time of crisis, and also stupid that the lil boy gets ill for no reason.

Great series with comedy, drama, and romance intertwined together in a most fantastic plot. Just as the synopsis implies, it deals with a man who deals with two identities: his famous self, Sakuraba Yuichiro, and his family side, Arai Yuichiro. The drama parts were magnificently done and some situations made more realistic and touching than other dramas that I have seen. I absolutely loved this show and the last episode brought me to tears. It's a must watch!

Excellent, amazying chemistry between Nagase and the lead girl (she is not traditionally petty but more cute) I have hardly seem more passionate kissing...that was suprising.

Another of my all time favourite (ranked way up there wif GTO)... this is one drama tt cannot be missed.... i was crying during nearly every episodes (as was the case wif mukodono 2003) and this show is funni like hell too... loved the role of yuichiro sakuraba (nagase tomoyo is way too likable in this role)... takuechi yuko is also veri likable and sweet as his wife..... i personally loved shinohara ryoko (too bad she's not tt popular in japan), so seeing her in this show was a big bonus.... lastly, the song "Hitoribotchi no Haburashi" is juz too nice!!!

Kyaa.. At the end of that clip they show at the beginning of each show, he looks like the Nerd then turns into the Rock Star, and *winks* WINKS! OH GOD, so hot. No matter how many times I saw him do that, it still gets to me. A terrific drama. Freaking funny. I see Takeuchi Yuko on the cast list, but don't really remember her in the drama. Weird. Maybe she looked different and I didnt recognise her..

so extremely touching drama. the deeper the story envolved the harder it was watching it knowing you would cry at least once during the next episode. i guess i only "saw" half of the last episode. terrific acting, great story, classic "fix one problem/episode" layout and great development of the relations. a clear have-to-see.

Didn't really like this drama that much from the start. I found it to be a little too corny. But after watching a few more episodes, I got used to the cheese and I really started to like it. It's really touching and really funny.

I loved watching this, it was very funny and very heart warming. I really enjoyed it. Ryoko Shinohara was my fav charcter and I enjoyed the storyline with her the most. I also loved Tsunku. He was just hilarious and really entertained me. ^.^

Excellent drama. Very very cute and sweet. 長瀬智也 and 竹内結子 have so much chemistry and they make such a cute couple!!!! Their acting is also very good.

SAKURABA & SAKURA JUST A GOOD COMBINATION. CUTE COUPLE. SUCH A HILARIOUS DRAMA.
158. Comments by madsky [Rating: 8/10]
I enjoyed this drama. I cried many times, and laughed as well. The last few episodes, in my opinion, were outstanding. The episodes where Yuichiro would help a different family member were enjoyable, don't get me wrong, but I just feel that theme has been done before. Yuichiro (Nagase) and Sakura (Takeuchi) were adorable together, it was cute how they acted so mushy. I'm a fan of Takeuchi, and this was my first time seeing Nagase, and I like him now as well. The supporting cast was good too, yay for Aiba Masaki!
159. Comments by Alatariel [Rating: 9/10]
Highly enjoyable drama. Contrast of the 'cool' & 'uncool' Yuichiro is hilarious. Focused on family stuff which i like.
160. Comments by Susan [Rating: 5/10]
As far as ridiculous dramas go, this one takes first prize! From this point on I will never be able to take Nagase Tomoyo seriously. But at the same time, he should be praised for his undeniable mastery of portraying completely unbelievable and stupid characters. At times I found this series mildly amusing, and it's not completely unwatchable, but sometimes it just went way too over the top! I'll pass on Mukodono 2003.
161. Comments by Jessicasoon [Rating: 10/10]
sakuraba yuichiro is the best! even thou i admit i bought this show with the intention of watching aiba masaki. haa!!! ryo is really cute too!!! and yuko's smiles are always at the best in this show. her chemistry wif nagase is very gd too!

Yuko and Tomoya were adorable together! I also liked the rest of the Arai family! Funny drama and it can also make you cry!

good dorama ^^ though yu-chan cried too much for my taste o.o
the ending is somehow too predictable. It's worse watching though ^.^

I haven't watched this one although I've bought it for quite sometime. I'm waiting for my obsession with Sakuraba in the 2003 one fades a bit so I can enjoy the 1st Sakuraba better. But maybe that's never going to happen.

179. Comments by gohmifune [Rating: 6/10]
A very weak show, there is a lot going for it, but it really doesn't have the quality writing or pacing on other dramas. Acting is good, but for a show about a musician, it is a shame to only have the into song and the one song the main character sings. It's worth a watch I guess, but only if you've got nothing else or don't want to see Pride or Dekichatta Kekkon another time.

Highly entertaining drama! Solid performance from Nagase and cast. I surely enjoy myself very much.
181. Comments by Tu_triky [Rating: 8/10]
A feel good comedy with it's share of heart ache and pain. A bit formulaic in its execution but nonetheless enjoyable to watch. If you've seen Otousan and/or Oyaji don't expect something fresh but if you enjoy indulging in those types of shows this is one drama you can't afford to miss! Great acting by both male and female leads respectively. I really enjoyed Ryoko Shinohara as Satsuki (nee-chan) Arai. Pulled off the cool, well-finished woman off perfectly!! O, just watch it...you'll like it :)

Find the exaggerated behaviour of the actor alittle irritating but it's still heart-warming and hilarious on the whole. Not bad.

My first Nagase Tomoya dorama, and the man can act! It made me a fan of Takeuchi Yuko too. The ending still chokes me up (yeah, I'm a big softy!).
187. Comments by tikleabubble [Rating: 9/10]
This is the 2nd jdrama that I watched. The only jdrama that made me cry. Although the plot gets tedious at times, Tomoya Nagase totally makes up for it. His role as Sakuraba Yuichiro was spotless, and it helps that he's the hottest man in the world ^^

Great show. Has it's hilarious moments. It's more a kawaii show. Yuko and Nagase were great in here. A truly believable couple. The theme song is one of the best in the Jdorama world. Haburashi.... :-) you know the rest ;-)

Recommended drama. Even has it's villian too, which I think every decent show kinda needs. Gives it an extra kick. The show can be a little over the top. But it's a minor complaint.
191. Comments by bigfire [Rating: 9/10]
The best drama I've seen in a long time! The characters are bright, funny, and at times powerful, and the story, while not completely unpredictible, takes the family drama situation from a new angle. It plays on all your emotions from beginning to end and reminds you why you love watching this stuff!

Got tired of hearing that Haburashii song.. LOL! It was highly amusing though ~~ especially Sakuraba Yoichiro's transformation from celebrity mode to Sakura's baka, uberly schmaltzy husband. Sugoii!

Sakuraba Yuichiro is super handsome, the theme song is good too!

I feel like it was missing something... something fresh and exciting. Nevertheless it was really touching and it will make you cry. And the song that Sakuraba Yuichiro is famous for is really really good.

It's cute, sweet and funny at times. That one song got stuck in my head for a while. And it was the first time to ever see Aiba-chan! And I thought he looked like a singer. Never knew he's from Arashi!!

fun but kinda silly! I don't think there was enough Takeuchi in this dorama in that... I didn't see her get the opportunity to showcase her talents outside of 'hanging on'...

One thing about J-drama, I don't always get what I thought I'm going to get and its GREAT!!! This drama for instance - who would have thought a very famous idol to be complete opposite of what he was on stage than he was at home? LOL
213. Comments by ffrostte [Rating: 10/10]
Absolutely love this one. The silly yu-san is cute and loveable while the all dashing sakuraba yuichiro is .. ahem .. so kakkoi! A great story about the importance of family. It reminds us once again what really is important in life -- not money, nor fame, but FAMILY!!

The toothbrush song is great too, by the way!!
