The drama will begin its run from 17 April at 10pm on Wednesdays. Sakurai plays a weird home tutor hired by Suzuki Honami's character who speaks harsh words peppered with sarcasm and also solves problems facing the family members including bullying, shoplifting, extramarital affairs. Sakurai commented that this is the first time he is playing such a controversial character so he hopes that this drama will set off a lot of discussion and attention in families and schools.

The drama is based on a novel by Honma Yohei and had been made into a movie starring the late Matsuda Yusaku. The theme song "Endless Game" will be sung by Arashi but the release date is yet to be decided.
