Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©
Manatsu Umino (Marika Matsumoto) is a hard-working woman. She has been by herself since her only family member, her mother, died in an accident. Manatsu Umino works in the editorial department of a weekly photo magazine, which publishes scoops on politicians and celebrities. She isn't happy with her job. Manatsu Umino decides to break up with her boyfriend, Hayato Oura (Ken Yasuda) whom she promised to marry. To start a new life, she quits her job and begins to work as a PR representative for watch company Towani. On the first day of work at her new company, she meets CEO Taimu Sorachi (Ken Yasuda). He looks so much like her ex-lover Hayato Oura.
