Believing in human's ability

I won't lie I decided to watch because of Ryo and Hokuto. However, the premise of the story is quite interesting. Instead of investing in the offered products, the main lead invests in the human. That is how he is known as a human investor.

Creating a start-up company is not as easy as flipping the coin. However, this dorama somehow made it easy since the main lead is a golden-spoon person. Initially, that gave me a non-realistic story. But, it turned out more complicated as the story went on. Even after the company was built, the CEO of each company found their own struggle. The thing I love is this dorama in each episode elaborated on the struggle of the adults. Stay-at-home mother, elder, and ex-rascal boy are some of the stories you would find in this dorama. This dorama also highlighted various relationships, such as mother-daughter relationships, partner-in-work relationships, marriage relationships, and sibling relationships. I freaking love the scene where each character got frustrated and people walk in opposite direction and clap as if it is nothing. The illustration is freaking good.

I was afraid that Taiyo could end up as a toxic-positivity spreader due to his enthusiastic and positive vibe. However, he was not. This dorama still showed his weak side as a human. It was realistic. In addition, his comedic attitude gives good laugh. I really love Ryo acting like this.

The rest story is pretty predictable when it was the uncle vs the sibling to lead a company.

This dorama would be pretty enjoyable if you are seeking for business-related dorama. It could be boring since a lot of terms seem not familiar. Give it a shot if you are looking for a business-related watch!
