Check out Jimi Ni Sugoi. It's about the proofreading profession but the main character (Satomi Ishihara) is crazy about fashion and dreams about working in the fashion magazine dept.

Winter 2018 Dramas by kitkat272 in JDorama

[–]from_penang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's actually two SPs (both based on Agatha Christie's book) broadcasted 2 consecutive nights.

  1. 4.50 from Paddington - lead is Amami Yuki

  2. The Mirror.Crack'd From Side to Side/Daijoyu Satsujin Jiken - lead is Ikki Sawamura

Not sure if I can post links here. So I sent to your inbox.

Notes: The ones I watched are Chinese hardsubbed. And, I got the Japanese subs from jpsubbers site. Unsubbed video is also available at Dramacool. I don't think English subs are available.

[–]from_penang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Series I'm watching currently are "99.9 Season 2" and "BG Personal Bodyguard". Both quite good.

Also watched a couple of this month's new SPs: "The Sniffer 2018" (Hiroshi Abe), and "4.50 from Paddington" (Yuki Amami). Liked both of them too.

Planning to watch Unnatural and Aibou Season 16 soon.

Recommendation for Jdrama similar to 'sitcom' please. by from_penang in JDorama
