Kazoku Game (The Family Game)

Look how fast time can pass, it's Friday already! Or some people might say, finally it's Friday.

One last Japanese drama to introduce for this season, and the season is almost over as most of the dramas have now reached the finale ep or 2nd last ep. The drama i'm introducing today is a very intense family drama. At first i wasn't sure if i like it or not, but after watching it for all this while, i guess it is a good drama. It teaches us a lot of things, tell us how important it is to take responsibilities and how important it is to care about people around you.

Kazoku Game. Or translated in english as The Family Game.

It is a story of a family which looks very glamorous and peaceful in other people's eyes. But the family is not happy with the youngest son as he has very bad results at school and reluctant to go to school. So one day they hire a tuition teacher to help with the study of the youngest son. This story is about how a tuition teacher can turn the family upside down and force them to realize the family is not as perfect as they think.

The actor playing the tuition teacher is from my favourite Japanese boy group Arashi. Sakurai Sho has shown his potential in acting since his leading role in The Quiz Show 2. He plays the psychotic role so well. I find him to be the smartest guy in Arashi as he not only take initiative in being the hosts in their shows and is also a news reporter. He has the most variety of jobs among the other members of Arashi i would say.

Another great actor in this drama would be Kamiki Ryunosuke, who act as the big brother in the family, who is smart but don't believe in anyone else including his family. This kid is totally a diamond in acting. He is good in almost every roles that he played in and always make a great impression to people regardless he is the lead character or a special guest for just one episode.

Well, that's all that i will say and hope you guys will watch the drama and maybe learn something from it. It is a great drama to be watched and also think about ourselves and our life after watching.
