About My Beloved Is My Husband's Boss?!
In Jimpachi Kodera's household, young samurai Keishiro Kanie arrives, captivating Jimpachi's wife, Shoko, despite his initially arrogant demeanor. Keishiro introduces himself while Shoko is cleaning, and she recalls her husband mentioning a visitor, reluctantly preparing a meal for him. Frustrated by Jimpachi's silence about Keishiro, Shoko confronts him, but he remains tight-lipped, further irritating her. As Keishiro addresses Shoko as "Okami" (landlady) and speaks informally with Jimpachi, his innocent and unpretentious nature gradually wins Shoko over. Despite initial irritation, Shoko is drawn to Keishiro's kindness and dependability as they spend more time together.
Directed by Sadao Nakajima, My Beloved Is My Husband's Boss?! leans on a strong ensemble — Chōichirō Kawarasaki, Kunihiko Mitamura, Shima Iwashita — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1987.
