"Nakajima looks up to his father, who was a war photographer, but can only get a job as an assistant for gravure magazines. Mizuno is a provisional high school teacher, currently on probation. Nishimura is Mizuno's best friend, whose boyfriend has been avoiding her since she discovered she was pregnant. Ichihara works at a magazine where he is being blackmailed into sexual favours by his chief editor. Park, on Twitter, takes on the persona of a doctor, when he is actually working at a company that sells medical equipment to disinterested doctors, and at the same time, trying to take care of his younger sister.
This is a story about the blossoming friendship of five young people who were brought together by Twitter, and their journey to finding honesty with each other and with themselves."
I'll be completely honest here and tell you I was not at all interested in the plot of the drama. In fact, I completely ignored it the whole time it was still airing. The plot seemed like it was just a promotion for twitter and it seemed stupid. However, one day I was bored and finally sat down to watch it. In two days I watched it, and I'm very glad that I did. For the most part, I'm not a big fan of straight drama series (I want romance or action in it) however (for some reason) I really enjoyed this drama. The characters were real, the stories being told were believable, the dialogue was well written, and the cast did a good job of acting out their characters. There were some parts that could have been more realistic, however, that won't stop me from giving it 4.5 stars. :D
