This is kind of the meat of the show, and it is especially interesting considering the japanese society, with all that honne and tatemae stuff emphasizing this kind of two-faced mindset.
Whether it is through comedy, romance, or just plain melodrama, the only thing I actually want out of the series is for this theme to be explored, and hopefully for a side to be taken regarding it.

Of course, if the characters and comedy are also charming, it's welcome. I like the male lead so far, but if he's not going to be more layered he will get old fast.
