Engine

This is another Japanese drama that I watched recently. I borrowed it from my girlfriend again and here's the brief synopsis about it.

Jiro Kanzaki is an F3000 test driver blessed with acute sensitivity and breathtaking driving techniques. He's a daredevil who feels no fear driving at speeds that even top racers dare not attempt. But unexpected trouble forces this world-famous racer to leave his team and return to Japan for the first time in years. Until he finds a new job as a racer, Jiro decides to stay with his parents. What awaits Jiro there is his hardheaded father, his nagging sister, the 12 children of the foster home his father runs, a snobbish male nurse, and a stubborn female nurse who likes to daydream about her life.
Jiro's return home brings a breath of fresh air that influences the people around him. However, he is still unaware that he too will eventually be influenced to change the way he thinks and lives.

I like the plot of this drama because it manage to develop most of the character well besides the main characters. Finally he ended up being a 4WD racer. Some comparison.. the leading actress is not that kawaii.. but thats OK.. no romantic kissing scene in the end unlike the previous 'Good Luck' and 'Pride' drama. But his characteristic is quite the same. This story also had opened my mind that there's such culture in Japan where people send their kids to foster home. In Malaysia, I think its better called as hostel. Not all of them are orphanage but seriously they've got family problem.
