Story

Sato is a young woman from a poor background that marries Kenta, the heir of a rich family. And as she moves into his family’s house, she discovers that she is unwelcome.

Japanese Drama Yangotonaki Ichizoku is a melodrama with all the classic tropes, even amnesia is utilized towards the ending.

The romance, nevertheless, is sweet and the couple had chemistry, which aids in their dynamics.

As for the main story, it’s full of drama and unlikeable characters that want to harm the main hero, but the final result is satisfying.
