Boku to Star no 99 Nichi (僕とスターの99日, (My) 99 Days with the Superstar) is a Japanese television series which premiered on Fuji TV in October 2011.[1] It starred Japanese actor Hidetoshi Nishijima and Korean actress Kim Tae-hee.[2]
Plot[]
In the romantic comedy, quiet Japanese security guard Namiki Kohei (Hidetoshi Nishijima), whose only real interest seems to be astronomy, is ordered to bodyguard top Korean actress Han Yoo-Na (Kim Tae-hee) at an exceptional production set in Japan.
Kohei is a single man approaching his 40s who has a part-time job at a security company. He has a sweet and handsome appearance, of which some people take advantage. Easily swayed by those around him, Kohei often takes care of his sister's three kids because of her habit of taking off to exotic locations in pursuit of various short-lived relationships. Still, he is a passionate man and dreams of finding his star. But because of his family and economic situation, he can't follow through on those dreams.
One day, Kohei is assigned as security for Han Yoo-Na for a period of 99 days. Yoo-Na is a pure and kind person. Even though she appears nearly perfect and very stylish, she prefers to act like a normal person. She enjoys eating simple Japanese food and on the film set Yoo-Na tries to take time out of her busy schedule to help others. She seems to be envied by all, but actually feels lonely due to being an idol who is supposed to keep her distance from others. Unknown to others, she has a sad secret and this, as well as her desire to try out different foods while she is in Japan, causes her to escape her hotel at night, leading to various escapades as Kohei has to retrieve her and escort her back to the hotel. These escapades regularly land Kohei in trouble.
At first, Kohei and Yoo-Na don't seem to get along due to his somewhat clumsy behavior and because his responsibility for keeping her out of trouble conflicts with her wish for some freedom. But as the deadline of 99 days approaches, their relationship undergoes some changes.
