But her cynical nature indicates she has something painful to hide. Satonaka Kensuke has just been promoted to head S&F’s new Marketing Division. Saddled with a rag-tag group of subordinates, he is struggling to lift his division off the ground. When Oomae is placed in Kensuke’s department, she finds herself doing more work than she’s ever done before. This is a timely drama that examines the different attitudes toward temp workers and regular employees, and the ways to overcome frictions in interpersonal relationships. This follows an October report on labor conditions by the Labor Ministry, which showed that, after regulations were relaxed, the proportion of regular employees to Temps had doubled compared to that of eight years ago.

I'm looking forward to this one, even though its pretty much a month away from airing on UTB. If it won an award (and if the ratings were that high) then it has to be good. It reminds me a bit of a drama that aired a couple of years ago - Shopping Hero. Hopefully it will be just as good as that drama was. UTB usually airs TBS dramas, but this time around its an NTV drama. Hope its as good as it seems! --- Wishing everyone a happy and wonderful 2009! 3/22/2008, 4:07 pm    Moises Moderator Global user Registered: 02-2005 Posts: 321 Quote Re: J-Drama: ハケンの品格 (Haken no Hinkaku) I'm surprised they put this info up so quick on UTB's website. Greg (Hiroshi66) and I were talking about the next series since we are disappointed in the current one and he decided to call UTB. We were both hoping that this wouldn't turn out to be a Magicbell situation, so he was a bit hesitant calling. They gave him the name of the next series and we were relieved to hear it. An hour later they have the info up on the website. UTB works fast! 3/24/2008, 9:57 pm    Hiroshi66 Moderator Global user (premium) Registered: 02-2004 Location: Los Angeles, America Posts: 7428 Quote Re: J-Drama: ハケンの品格 (Haken no Hinkaku) class blockquote Moises wrote: I'm surprised they put this info up so quick on UTB's website.

Maybe a phone call might make them reconsider their decision to discontinue airing them. *crosses fingers* --- Wishing everyone a happy and wonderful 2009! 3/25/2008, 10:03 am    diane18 Member Global user Registered: 02-2007 Posts: 226 Quote Re: J-Drama: ハケンの品格 (Haken no Hinkaku) class blockquote Hiroshi66 wrote: class blockquote Moises wrote: I'm surprised they put this info up so quick on UTB's website.

Looks like UTB has finally started airing the commercials for this drama. It started during Saturday's episode of Atsu-hime, and I think it ran a couple of times during last night's Jigoku no sada mo yome shidai. Looks good.. I wish UTB's commercials would be more of a montage of scenes rather than just one from the middle of the episode. --- Wishing everyone a happy and wonderful 2009! 4/7/2008, 5:57 pm    Hiroshi66 Moderator Global user (premium) Registered: 02-2004 Location: Los Angeles, America Posts: 7428 Quote Re: J-Drama: ハケンの品格 (The Pride of Temp) I just wanted to remind everybody that the first episode of Haken no Hinkaku is going to air tomorrow (Sunday, April 20th) starting at 8:45 P.M rather than 9 PM (which is when the UTB dramas usually start.) I guess this is because the first episodes of dramas are often longer, so rather than split it up into two parts, UTB wants to air it in one sitting but start it earlier so they can fit it in. --- Wishing everyone a happy and wonderful 2009! 4/19/2008, 6:57 am    neko7149 Member Global user Registered: 11-2006 Posts: 345 Quote Re: J-Drama: ハケンの品格 (The Pride of Temp) - starts Sunday, April 20th! Yes! I really recommend this drama! I have already seen it last year on TV-Japan, and IT-IS-GOOD! Really-good! Hope you-all will enjoy it. 4/19/2008, 8:07 pm    Hiroshi66 Moderator Global user (premium) Registered: 02-2004 Location: Los Angeles, America Posts: 7428 Quote Re: J-Drama: ハケンの品格 (The Pride of Temp) - starts Sunday, April 20th! class blockquote neko7149 wrote: Yes!

Glad to hear its going to be good! UTB has aired some mediocre dramas lately (like Jigoku no sada mo yome shidai) so I was hoping that they'd air something better for their next drama. Its a relief that this next drama is going to be an enjoyable one! --- Wishing everyone a happy and wonderful 2009! 4/19/2008, 9:22 pm    hyena Member Global user Registered: 07-2004 Posts: 1212 Quote Re: J-Drama: ハケンの品格 (The Pride of Temp) - starts Sunday, April 20th! Really enjoyed this first episode. I like Shinohara Ryoko, in fact, I was just thinking about her a few days ago. I'm glad the last one is over. Haruko is certainly an interesting character. 4/20/2008, 9:08 pm    Add a reply Page:  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10  11  12  13  14  15  Powered by AkBBS 0.9.5b  -  Link to us   -  Blogs   -  Hall of Honour   -  Chat Click here to get your own free message board You are not logged in (login)      1/7/2009, 2:48 am
