Love vs. career is the theme of the new drama series "Seisei Suru Hodo Aishite Iru" ("I Absolutely Love You"; TBS, Tues., 10 p.m.), which is based on a popular manga.
Saki Takei plays Mia, who is employed in the public-relations department of a company that she has wanted to work for since she was a girl. It's her dream job, so when her boyfriend proposes marriage but also wants her to quit working and move to his hometown with him, she turns him down.
Suddenly unattached, she is reintroduced to Kairi Umesato (Hideaki Takizawa), one of the company's vice-presidents, who has just returned from the U.S. She and Kairi entered the company at the same time and attended a one-month training course together. Kairi is impressed with Mia's industriousness and the good work she does, while Mia finds herself falling in love. But she doesn't know Kairi's big secret.
