Sales clerk Makoto Sugawara (Ayaka Konno) works hard at her job at an advertising agency, where she's well-liked by her colleagues. However, her desires for a happy family are dashed by her long-term boyfriend, who treats her coldly. To make matters worse, she finds out that he cheated on her. Makoto dumps him, but finds herself without anywhere to live. To her surprise, her department manager Ren Odagiri (Shota Totsuka) offers to let her stay with him. At work, Odagiri gained the nickname "yakuza boss" for his cold, strong personality, but at home, he's unexpectedly sweet to Makoto. But Odagiri is hiding a secret almost too absurd to believe: he's secretly a gang boss for real! Will Makoto find out about Odagiri's double life – and what will this mean for their growing connection? This drama was adapted from the manga of the same name by Nao Mashimo and @R.

The Yakuza Boss’s Beloved

The Yakuza Team 🐉

Serial bookworm Waka Kashiwagi (Yurika Nakamura) has a problem: her collection of books has grown too large to fit in a regular house! But when she bumps into high school classmate Shinobu Kamijo (Ryosuke Hashimoto), it looks like Waka may have found a solution. Now a successful scientific researcher, Shinobu has a large residence that can also house Waka – and her vast array of books. Waka agrees, although the duo have a history: in high school, Shinobu kissed Waka while she was reading in the school library, but moved overseas with his family shortly after. Unbeknownst to Waka, Shinobu still has feelings for her. Will Waka’s love for literature leave no room for romance – or could her new living arrangements lay the foundations for a new relationship? This 2021 Japanese drama series, based on a manga series by Hiiro Kisaragi, was directed by Akimori Sakemi, Yuta Yoshikawa, and Yui Matsuzaki.
