Toobo

A light-hearted romantic comedy between a young female boss and her older female assistant in a realistically reconstructed world of the defense industry based on the authentic experiences of the author.

Plot Synopsis:

19yo Hina inherits a mega-corporation, but she is a billionaire underdog facing dauntingly massive pressure to succeed. Her sidekick, Sin, is an older and experienced woman who is a jack of all trades in the business world with a natural talent for improvising and working behind the scenes to make the clockwork tick. To repay her debt of gratitude to Hina’s late father who brought her under his wings and gave her a career in the defense industry, she dedicates herself to helping Hina and protecting her at all costs. 

The irresistible charm of Hina slowly starts to move Sin’s heart but she is a woman incapable of loving and being loved. However, Hina is an unpredictable force of nature and her nonchalant shower of affection makes it hard for Sin to juggle her ever-so-confusing feelings and professional commitment. The family feud within Hina’s family, power struggles in the company to oust the young heiress, and political landmines Sin needs to navigate with her young new boss make her life and career increasingly more precarious as time goes by.

My Lady and I

Hina and I waited nervously sitting at the table closest to the stage.

The third act was performing now, a dude with an acoustic guitar strumming and singing - just as the previous two did.

This was pretty much how all open mic events went back in my day as well.

These events weren't for bands to bring their full gears onto the stage and perform gigs. It was a chance for a solo singer songwriter to work up the courage to test out his songs for the first time on stage, or for some people who just enjoyed singing and performing to come and have a good time, covering their favorite bands and so on.

Hina and I fell into the second category of course.

It takes strength to be gentle and kind
