Takato Saijou has been named "Sexiest Man of the Year" five years in a row. He is a skilled actor with over 20 years of experience, and he is fully aware of his beautiful looks. Takato, who is proud of his career, sees the title as a fitting reflection of his achievement. Takato's initial disbelief turns to envious anger when his reign is terminated by acting newcomer Junta Azumaya, who debuted only three years earlier. Even in the new drama in which he has been cast, Junta appears to have suddenly outdone him; taking Takato's traditional place as main actor, Junta manages to get on Takato's nerves on a regular basis. The bright grin and sweet words that accompany it are the most vexing of all.
