Hitomi isn’t just boy crazy, she actually is pretty savvy at her job. Hanae is stunned to learn that Yu is a CEO and even more perplexed that someone like him would keep wanting to interact with her. Hitomi reveals that the handsome flower man who dined with Hanae is actually the company CEO. Hitomi flounces back to the office carrying flyers printed out for the upcoming inter-company party between their food import company and Yu’s company one floor above. So knows it’s a lie as well and demands a picture, all the while he picks up doggie Mamoru’s picture from Hanae’s desk to look at unaware that it’s the Mamoru. So wants to see a picture of Mamoru and Hanae lies that he doesn’t want her to take his picture. It must be the handiwork of her boyfriend Mamoru, who we all know is the family bulldog. Hanae returns to the office and sunshine boy So immediately comes over to point out how Hanae is glowing lately. He does drop one piece of advice before swanning off – he hopes that she doesn’t end up getting hurt if she takes it seriously and gets played. Hanae just tells Yu to stop meddling in her matters so Yu doesn’t press Hanae further and gets up to leave her alone seeing as she’s not going to open up to him. Hanae insists she doesn’t have a problem despite Yu pointing out she showed up at work wearing the same clothes two days in a row and then walked right past the office without going in. Yeah right, but that is a good line you got there, Yu. Yu just smiles and claims smoothly that he can’t help it, if he sees someone in need then he’ll be spurred to offer assistance. Hanae tries to demur and ask Yu to stop bothering her. She’s startled to hear him correctly guess that she’s stressed about her much younger boyfriend from work. Yu sits down unsolicited at Hanae’s table and immediately offers to listen to her problems and give her advice. Fukushi Sota fans needn’t worry since Yuto gets to romance Hanae first no matter what deviations come since the crux of the story is how inexperienced Hanae blooms (like the flower in her name) after an unexpected noona-dongsaeng romance with Yuto. The Japanese audience are also loving KwKY as well, with episode 1 already netting an enviable 14.3%, episode 2 jumped a startling nearly 3% to garner a stunning 17.0% and making it nearly the fall ratings leader. The dorama continues to deviate significantly from the original source manga, increasing second male lead Yu’s screen time and cultivating the amazing chemistry between Tamaki Hiroshi and Ayase Haruka. KwKY confirms that the Japanese storytelling flair and flavor, when done right, can produce the best funny and stirring romance genre works. The perfect starting execution of this romance is why I’m so frustrated that J-doramas now offer so few straight up renzoku doramas. This is hands down the best romance drama airing right now in all the East Asian drama outlets. I was basically laughing and smiling the whole way through. I’m not issuing a direct marching order but episode 2 of this dorama is so wonderful it cements this as the new crack. Run don’t walk to the nearest computer to start watching Kyou wa Kaisha Yasumimasu.
