This week I would like to introduce a Japanese TV drama to you guys. The title is We married as a job（逃げるは恥だが役に立つ）
The story basically revolves around the female lead Mikuri Moriyama who has good educational attainment but couldn’t get employed, ending up as a part-time cleaner for a stoic single man Hiramasa Tsuzaki who’s never had a girlfriend before. The female lead ended up proposing entering a marriage contract with her employer, leading to a win-win situation for both whereby he could finally appear “attached” while having someone trustworthy to do the chores for him, and her landing a full-time job and getting paid for doing housecleaning and cooking which she does pretty well. Naturally, both of them fell in love with each other as time passes and the drama chronicles the misunderstandings and challenges they faced in light of coming to terms with their own feelings.

Hi Junjie,
ReplyDeleteMe and my family usually watch korean dramas (well except my mom who watches any asian dramas) and I will definitely suggest this to them especially my sister Laica who loves Japanese culture and people so much..! Is this a series or a movie? It looks and sounds so interesting!
Hi, Susette
