As a result, her childhood friend Kento decides to enroll in a butler school so that he can stay close to her.

My Thoughts:

A typical drama about a girl finding out she's a heiress to some big corporation but with a few twists along the way. What amazed me is that she kept her stand as coming from the poor life but still can be a lady(You will hear that term a lot in the drama) and influence others of her life. She is lovable and then there are a lot of cute moments and thirdwheels which liven up the story. Though there is some dark in it from the antagonists. But overall, a very pleasant to watch drama. Of course the funny factors are there too. Heartwarming moments are there also since this drama involves a lot of family and close friends relationships.
