Refreshing and sweet, yet the bitter taste lingers…

My Boss, My Hero

Posted by Sana on August 18, 2008

If you never watched it, you should. One of the best JDramas I’ve watched so far! This was so hilarious and it was fun to watch. I found this drama by accident. I was looking through MySoju and pressed something random. I’m happy I got to watch it. :) The fact that Koki was in it made me want to watch it even more! Nagase Tomoya-san was such a good actor! He was perfect for the role of Sakaki Mikio. Well, I should quit babbling. Here are the main characters.


Nagase Tomoya as Sakaki Makio
Sakaki Mikio is the main character of the Drama. He is a 27 Year Old dropout and a Yakuza heir. By academic standards, he’s pretty stupid. After messing up a deal in Hong Kong, his father decides to force him to enter high school again and earn his diploma. If Sakaki cannot graduate, the title of boss will go to his younger brother.


Tanaka Koki as Manabe Kazuya
Manabe is Sakaki’s doting underling. He admires Sakaki very much and calls him Aniki. He dislikes Sakurakouji for being so close to Sakaki. Tanaka Koki won the 50th Television Drama Academy Awards as Best Supporting Actor. He is also part of the Jpop Group KAT-TUN.


Aragaki Yui as Umemura Hikari
Yui is a pretty girl who falls for Sakaki eventually. Her prescence in the classroom is the average pretty and kind girl. She is childhood friends with Sakurakouji.


Tegoshi Yuya as Sakurakouji Jun
At the beginning of the series, it appears that Sakurakouji has an interest in Sakaki Mikio. Later onHe has a childhood crush on Hikari but pretends to dislike her to hide it. He later dubs Sakaki as Maki. Tegoshi Yuya is part of the JPop group NEWS. 

These characters are the ones that appear the most I think so I don’t think I’ll mention anymore. Too lazy. XP I heard that this was based on the Korean Drama My Boss, My Hero. I’ve never watched it but I usually just watch the Japanese Dramas. Listening to the different languages make me confused. Well, go try this drama out. I’m sure you’ll like it!
