Plot

Nanako, determined to marry rich after poverty, is dubbed the "gokon queen". Shinichi, a brilliant academic turned fishmonger, misleads her into believing he's wealthy when they meet at a group date, leading Nanako to fall for him.

Matsushima Nanako grew up in a very poor family and is thus determined to marry a rich man so that she will never have to go through poverty ever again, and is named the "gokon queen" in her quest to find her man. Tsutsumi Shinichi is a brilliant academic (Fields prize winner - Nobel Prize equivalent in Mathematics) who gave up his studies to take over his deceased father's fish-shop. They meet through a doctor's "gokon" (group date) and she falls in love with him under the mistaken assumption that he is a very rich man.—DramaWiki

Following her high school graduation and having endured a childhood in poverty due to her family's status, Jinno Sakurako vows to the memory of her late mother that she will find a man of the highest financial means to ensure her happiness in life. In this, she circulates herself in the richest circles of eligible bachelors in Tokyo, while working as a First Class flight attendant. During one of the parties she attends, she meets math genius-turned-seafood merchant Nakahara Osuke, who at the insistence of his friends, poses as a rich surgeon at a local hospital. Due to the pretense as to his financial status and social standing, Sakurako believes she finally found her match in "Doctor" Nakahara.—Michael D. Garcia <otaking@otaking.org>
