101 Marriage Proposals is a 1991 japanese television series of pure love dramas written by Shinji Nojima and starring Wenko Asano, Tetsuya Takeda, and Yosuke Eguchi.
The drama tells the unique love story of a middle-aged man, Tatsuro Hoshino, who has failed and been dumped in 99 blind dates, and after meeting Kaoru Yabuki, who cannot forget his deceased fiancé, in the 100th blind date.
Tatsuro Hoshino:
A bachelor over forty years old, he is unremarkable, stout, good-hearted, and unambitious. Both parents died, and their brothers were dependent on each other, and ninety-nine blind dates failed, and the first blind date ran away on the day of marriage. He has worked for more than a decade in a construction company and is still a unit chief.
This male protagonist may be the ugliest one in Japanese dramas. Dark and short, with a smile and yellow teeth on his face, his personality is also very timid and unmotivated. But he was also the greatest one. Just like when I was a child, the black and yellow rough roots are the strongest and can last to the end. This hoshino Tatsuro's spirit of never giving up moves people from the first minute to the last. Jump in front of the big truck that is coming and say, "I'm not going to die!" I'm not going to die! Because I love you, I won't die! I'll make you happy! And he mistakenly thought she was working at a construction site to save money when she was pregnant—two of the places that brought me to tears the most.
Yabuki Ko:
30 years old, cellist of the symphony orchestra, long hair and white skin, gentle and beautiful. Unmarried and killed in a car accident on the day of their wedding three years ago, I still remember him. Under the forcible oppression of his mother, he went on a blind date and met Dairo.
I think the heroine is always a woman with classical beauty and a slightly neurotic nature, with long hair covered by clouds and the moon, always with a melancholy laugh and a line of tears that are constantly hanging down. In essence, she is a beautiful woman who can not be conquered by face, voice, money and lies. Because of this, she can become the source of the male protagonist's "love". I believe that such a woman exists in the human world. That's what motivates me too.
The two who did not know each other met in Dalang's hundredth blind date. Tatsuro fell in love with Kaoru at first sight, but Kaoru had no feelings and refused. Under the sincere pursuit of Tatsuro and the strong encouragement of the younger siblings of both sides, Kaoru was finally impressed and agreed to marry him.
While Tatsuro is happily preparing for the wedding, Kaoru meets Fujii, who looks like her ex-fiancé, attracts each other and secretly interacts, which makes Kaoru shake her feelings about the marriage with Tatsuro. Unfortunately, Fujii is Tatsuro's new boss. The paper wrapper cannot hold the fire, and kaoru and Fujii's relationship is known to Tatsuro. For Kaoru's happiness, Tatsuro is willing to quit and quit his job.
Encouraged by Kaoru's best friend Momoko, Tatsuro bets on a "judicial exam" and asks Kaoru to consider returning to him if he passes, and on the day he passes he will leave the engagement ring in the church. When Kaoru and Fujii get along, they gradually realize that Fujii has never been the true wall of the year, and his inner thoughts are different from the real wall, and at the same time, he also understands that responding to the person who loves him wholeheartedly is also a form of love, and he broke up with Fujii. The exam release day finally arrived, Dalang fell off the list, all his thoughts were gray, and he returned to the construction site to become a worker and continue his ordinary life. When work began that night, Kaoru appeared in front of Tatsuro in a wedding dress.
"I'm a man with no merits. However, although the feeling of loving you cannot win this person, it will not lose to him. I think you will continue to miss this person in the future. It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay... Even if you continue to miss him in your heart, I have decided to embrace you with love, even though my hands are short. And I'll probably always be jealous of this guy. However, because of this, I will work harder to love and care for you after I marry you. ”
