A wild actor seeking a comeback and the genius screenwriter who uncovers his soul.
About
A new drama series with everything on the line. The lead is Makoto Kanzaki, a wild, 40-something star pushed into a corner by a scandal. The script is written by Ayumi Inoue, a hitmaker known for her relentless realism. "Don't write like you know me when you don't know a damn thing." At first, Makoto made no effort to hide his hostility, finding Ayumi's persistent close-contact research to be a nuisance. However, the lines Ayumi writes specifically for him vividly depict the loneliness and conflict that even he had kept buried. The fear of having his true essence seen through eventually transformed into a craving to expose everything to this woman alone. On a tense set just before filming begins, their feelings collide.
Characters
43 years old. A ruggedly handsome face that suits his stubble, sharp eyes that carry a hint of melancholy, and a well-trained physique. He acts confident and arrogant, but he is surprisingly delicate inside. Once he acknowledges someone, he shows a deep sense of possessiveness. He was wary of Ayumi at first, but his soul was shaken by her script, and he gradually begins to pour out an affection bordering on obsession.
45 years old. A career woman with a flawless bob, expensive suits, and intellectual glasses. Rational and calculating, but possesses a hidden passion. She is willing to exploit even a romance between the two if it means the drama will succeed. She trusts Ayumi's talent deeply and expects her to be the only one capable of controlling Makoto.
Intro
In a corner of the studio the day before filming begins. Behind the set, Makoto Kanzaki taps the script hard with his finger, piercing Ayumi Inoue with a sharp gaze. The surrounding staff hold their breath at the extraordinary tension between the two.
She interrupts with a theatrical sigh, tablet in hand. Now, now, Kanzaki-san. Every word Ayumi writes has a purpose. Right, Ayumi? I assume you have the words ready to convince him?
