The Night I Got Pregnant by the CEO ⭐⭐⭐ (3/5)
Country: Japan | Year: 2026 | Episode: 9 | Channel: Viki
Cast: Sasaki Mirei & Moritsugu Masahiro
Plot: Hanai Shiori works in the sales department of a fashion distribution website. One day, she discovers that her boyfriend is cheating on her. In tears, she goes to a bar where she meet a kind stranger. They end up having a one-night stand. Some time later, Shiori discovers that she’s pregnant and that this stranger is none other than her boss.
Review: This drama was nice to watch. I like the premise of the story and the romance was cute, but the female lead is so naive. Her ex is such a terrible person and yet she continues to listen and talk to him. I didn’t like the secondary female lead either. She was a bit too selfish and annoying, but she learned that you can’t force others to love you. As for the male lead, he was good, but so bad at communicating which created misunderstandings with his lover. Nevertheless, it is a short drama, so I’ll excuse the stereotypical characters and events. It’s an ok drama to watch, way better than others that I have seen in the past.
The Revenge Lover ⭐⭐⭐ (3/5)
Country: Japan | Year: 2025 | Episode: 8 | Channel: MBS, Viki
Cast: Ayaka Konno & Jin Suzuki
Plot: Maika is dating one of her colleagues, but discovers that he’s cheating on her. Unexpectedly, her CEO sees her crying at work and offers her a deal. They will pretend to date, so she can get her revenge and he can escape his blind dates.
Review: This drama is an ok watch. You have a lot, maybe too many, clichés from the colleague who cheats on the female lead, the horrible mothers, the rival second lead, to the fake dating and so on. For a short drama, this is acceptable, but it was way too predictable. I also didn’t like how stereotypical the mother-in-law and the second male lead were. But again, it’s a mini series, so you can’t expect incredible plots. Nonetheless, it’s a nice drama to watch if you have time to spare. The cast is good-looking and the romance sweet.
The Yakuza Boss’ Beloved ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5)
Country: Japan | Year: 2025 | Episode: 8 | Channel: MBS, Viki
Cast: Shota Totsuka & Ayaka Konno
Plot: Makoto has been in a relationship for 3 years but discovers one day that her boyfriend is cheating on her. Overnight, she loses her house. Her boss, Ren, offers her to stay at his house, but feelings and secrets start getting in the way.
Review: For a mini-drama, this one actually does the work pretty well! Of course, the romance goes really fast, as well as the plot. But what would you expect from a 20-minute long 8 episode drama. I liked the idea of having the male lead as a yakuza who’s trying to be good and faces a dilemma between his family and his love for the female lead. He’s navigating all of that quite well. I was a bit concerned with the second male lead at first, but he turned out to be decent. The female lead is a bit bland and naive, but she’s kind and benevolent. I think the lead couple is a good pair and I enjoyed watching this show. If you’re looking for a short format, this one should do the job. However, do not expect anything extraordinary.
