Kozue Fuyuki is a corrections officer defined by discipline, rigor, and an unwavering adherence to her own strict code. Within the high walls of the detention center, she is known for being unsparingly tough on both those around her and herself. Her controlled world shatters the day she encounters a new prisoner: a convicted murderer who holds a profound connection to a long-buried secret from Kozue's past. This devastating meeting throws her life completely off course and into a spiral of moral compromise. Inspired by a shocking true story, this is a tale of forbidden obsession and descent. Will she find salvation in love, or total despair? "If it's with you, I don't care if I end up in hell!" (Source: NTV) Edit Translation

Reviews
Entertaining and forgettable!
This drama is what I would call "entertainment that feels like a chore... kinda", because while I will say that it was entertaining many of the times-- it also goes around in circles and spends most of its runtime on plot twists that are simply nothing more than just twists. You know what I mean? As in, it shocks you for the moment but leaves no actual impact on the viewer OR the plot itself.Also are prisons really this easy to escape? I don't know what it's like in Japan but are female COs allowed at male prisons? That aside, being the romance fan that I am, the whole "epic" romance they had going on here felt underdeveloped and... unearned? Like it legit grew out of nowhere. I was just confused.
Still, if you're looking for some mindless entertainment to binge watch, this is not bad. I personally don't take too kindly to corny entertainment that is trying too hard to be something meaningful lol. Hot poster and cool soundtracks though!
