On my to-do list is catching up on Rich Man, Poor Woman recaps to align with the live airing, if only real life (you know- work, family, random emergencies) didn’t get in the way so much. Those of you who have watched episode 3 must be chomping at the bit to know how the cliffhanger moment unfurls in the next episode. Have no fear, I am here! Though maybe I should withhold the goodies some more, because reading the written preview for episode 4 will only increase the desire to watch it immediately. It’s been a long time since a J-dorama this cracktastic has come along. Oguri Shun and Ishihara Satomi are an inspired onscreen coupling that I for one would have never imagined. I’m totally not going to be content with the usual J-style of keeping the romance cerebral with little skinship. They better be making out soon is all I have to say.
Written preview for episode 4:
Hyuga is fretting about the delays in the development of the personal registry network, especially since another large IT infrastructure company announces the development of the same network capability. This throws Next Innovation into a critical period.
On the other hand, friend Ono Haruka encourages Chihiro, who has been fired, to do something proactive to apologize or make it up to Hyuga. Asahina thinks it’s a bad idea to fire Chihiro, but Hyuga calmly says that a company currently collecting all the personal data of every single citizen cannot afford to employ someone who is using a fake name.
At this time, Chihiro runs to the neighborhood agencies to collect feedback on whether government workers think the current government IT infrastructure is outdated, and on their thoughts for what is needed in the future where personal data is kept on file and easily accessible.
Hyuga is angered by the inability to create the system he has in mind so he locks himself up to do it himself. After 42 hours of working nonstop, Yasuoka cannot stand it anymore and drags Hyuga outside. They run into Yoko, and the two people who are stressed about the work decide to relax a bit……
At that time, the survey-conducting Chihiro gets suspected of being a swindler and taken away by authorities. In the middle of the night, Hyuga gets a call and he reluctantly goes to pick up Chihiro. Returning back to Next Innovation, and it’s just Hyuga and Chihiro alone in the office……
When all eyes are on you then you either vault over the pressure or crumble.…

Hyuga will most likely be unable remember "Chihiro"....and i want to watch it now. 2 days isn't that too far off. NOT! Aaargh!
oh, and thank you very much for the preview. i really appreciate it. i get too lazy to look for them and i can't read kanji/katakana/hiragana. good thing I have Koala's Playground in my bookmark for ease of access everytime i open my computer.
I'm sure he'll remember her, but he may pretend not to. She seems to be one of the few people whose face he actually recognizes instantly. Ugh, the waiting is killing me.
He's totally gonna pretend he doesn't remember her.
Dear Ms Koala you make me watch new shows like no other.I don't even like J drama but now I am so curious I have to look for the episode. Does anyone know now many episodes this is?
Don't know... but most JDrama are only 9-11 episodes.
Thanks so much for posting the preview!
All the episodes are "action" packed. People never stand still. I love it!
Come, romance and skinship! We're ready for you!
Love your comment!!!!!
Yes yes...romance and skinship,definitely ready for these to come.Unfortunately,Hyuga will be force kissed by Yoku in ep4 and my poor chihiro sees it all...arrrrrrrrr
"and it’s just Hyuga and Chihiro alone in the office" Eeepppp! They make it sound so perverted and it's not like I'm expecting a kiss so soon but a girl can hope, right? Hehe thx Koala for the preview, I've been Dying for this episode to come out!
Hahaha, they are both nerds, they'll probably code all night. She'll help him finish the program. Kisses? Who needs kisses when you can do javascript.
LOL!!!!!!!!
LMAO, I'm delurking just for this comment!
Is it weird of me that I can give up kisses if I get to watch them nerd out for an evening?
Actually they could do away with everything else on this show (2nd leading lady, can we delete you?) and I'd watch just for these two!
Thought you might like this quick recap I caught on another site.
"What makes Rich Man Poor Woman different? Its got Oguri Shun as Hyuga Toru, the Japanese Mark Zuckerberg who's company looks like a copy of Google headquarters and his a big plan about online database for Japanese citizens. The interesting thing about his character is that he has a disability whereby he is unable to remember names and faces. Fingers crossed it doesn't advance into a debilitating fatal disease. If this were a kdrama, its almost a guarantee and Poor Woman would end up being his sister."
Thanks so much for the preview! Loving this drama so much. Btw, the lead actress name is Ishihara Satomi. Really love her role and disliking Aibu Saki's role :/
I can't wait for episode 4!! This drama is really addicting!!
Thanks a lot for the preview! Can't wait for the weekend to end like ASAP so that we can all have RMPW EP4 already!!!
Agree! They better do some snogging!
OOOhhhh!!! Capt. Koala, you are better than awesome! Thank you for the preview. Yes, chomping at the bit, anxiously waiting for news, previews, recaps, googling Shun Oguri, reviewing HYD and previous films, can't wait for Monday for the raw, and Wednesday for the subbed... I am now a certified RMPW addict! As always, you feed my addiction and I am your slave!
...and it’s just Hyuga and Chihiro alone in the office……
Enough for me...Monday, get here right now!
Forgot totally, thanks Mrs.K.
