SYNOPSIS
Sangenya Machi and Yashiro Dai left the Teiko Real Estate Shinjuku office, and has established Sanchi Real Estate where Machi is the company president and Dai is the sales division chief.

Two years after they left their old jobs, the sales are down and the Teiko Real Estate Shinjuku office is on the verge of closing down. Niwano Seiji goes to Machi to ask her to go back to Teiko Real Estate Shinjuku Office as a part-time employee for a short time so that they can get a good sales record.

Although Machi didn't want to, Dai convinced her to go to Tokyo and to work at the Teiko Real Estate Shinjuku office for around two weeks...



REVIEW
Ie Uru Onna is an interesting drama about a successful real estate agent, and how she inadvertently helps her clients even though she's only concerned about selling houses and earning a lot of money.

Although Sangenya Machi has dreadful social skills, she can figure out what potential clients want and need in a house. She sells houses to her clients that's perfect for them and their lifestyle, even though these properties are entirely different to what they claim they are looking for.

Personally, I have misgivings about how it seems that Machi knows her clients better than they know themselves. I don't like how she doesn't listen to what her clients say, and sells them houses that she thinks they need instead.

I mean, I don't think people are exactly how we think they are, because how we see them is influenced by our own biases and misconceptions. I like to think that we are the only ones who can truly know ourselves, especially if we're being really honest with ourselves.

Anyway, I like how Machi doesn't speak when she doesn't have anything relevant to say because I'm exactly like her in that regard. Although people think that she has strange mannerisms, I like how she's always composed and I wish I have her so-called poker face.

The drama is about working as a real estate agent, from how to sell a property to how the profession has evolved over time. I think people who work in the real estate industry should watch Ie Uru Onna, especially if they are real estate agents and real estate brokers.
