Ten no Hakobune (J-Drama) (2012)

Kurotani Nanami grew up in a poor farmer’s household that suffered from inadequate state support to the earthquake victims. She works at a club as she attends university and constantly sends her family money. One day, Shioda Yusuke, the young company president of Naguri Construction, and his subordinate Miyazato Kazuki turn up at the place where Nanami works. Learning that the two influential men are engaged in work related to ODA (official development assistance) and interested in the illicit money which flows from it, Nanami is fascinated by the flow of money on the other side of the world of international aid. She gets close to Miyazato who has many friends among the heavyweight politicians and government, and is virtually leading his company. In exchange for sleeping with him, she wants a job at a company associated with ODA. Although Nanami knows that it is a dirty world, she unhesitatingly seeks to throw herself into it and escape from poverty. Taking an interest in Nanami, Miyazato guides her to Gohongi Consultants which has close ties to his company. This is the entrance to the world of international aid where kickbacks, bribes, concessions and political manuevering are rampant.
