■ Overview of this Work
・Reconstructed as a completely new remake of a hit IP from TV Tokyo
This work is a popular IP that TV Tokyo developed from the original manga production and which also recorded hits as a terrestrial television drama. We have optimized it for the viewing needs of 2026 and evolved it into a new short drama. Furthermore, it has been produced as a 'completely new work' with refreshed composition, direction, and pacing, rather than a re-edit of existing footage.
・Generating buzz through BUMP's exclusive early release
By premiering on the short drama app 'BUMP' ahead of other platforms, we aim to maximize initial momentum by leveraging our company's social media reach.
■ Synopsis
Yukiya Ise, the second son of one of Japan's leading zaibatsu families, is the child of a mistress. After his biological mother died in an accident, he was taken in and raised by the Ise family as an orphan. However, the relatives, who were unhappy with his presence, subjected him to intense bullying and persecution. After managing to graduate from high school and leave home, Yukiya met the woman of his destiny, Erika, and experienced 'happiness' for the first time in his life. Yukiya thought he could cut ties with the Ise family, marry Erika, and nurture this modest happiness to live a good life...
However, Erika was a calculating woman who would stop at nothing to get what she wanted! Upon learning that Yukiya was the child of a mistress and held no influence within the Ise zaibatsu, she secretly approached Yukiya's older brother, Masayuki. She then became pregnant with Masayuki's child and announced that she would divorce Yukiya to remarry Masayuki.
Persecuted by his own family and betrayed by the wife he loved, this 'cuckolded husband' vows revenge against the Ise zaibatsu from the very bottom of his life!
This is a shocking, ambitious work that questions what is truly 'precious' in a hyper-capitalist society where 'cost-performance' is demanded in everything!
