Like its title, Beautiful Life is nothing short of beautiful in every aspect — ratings, accolades, story, music, and above all, the deep emotional connection it fosters with its audience.
When the drama aired in 2000, it made waves across Japan, achieving an average viewership rating of 31.86%, and peaking at a remarkable 41.3% for its final episode. These were record-breaking numbers that etched the series into the history of Japanese television. But the magic of Beautiful Life doesn't stop at ratings — it swept the Japanese Drama Academy Awards, winning an incredible 11 awards, another historic feat that reflected its quality and cultural impact.
The story, penned by renowned screenwriter Eriko Kitagawa, is a deeply moving tale of love, loss, and living with dignity. Kitagawa herself has said that while writing Beautiful Life, she was mourning the loss of her mother — an emotional undercurrent that undoubtedly breathes life into every scene and character in this drama.
The narrative centers on Shuji Okishima (played by Takuya Kimura), a passionate and talented hairstylist, who meets Kyoko Machida (played by Takako Tokiwa), a spirited librarian who uses a wheelchair due to a congenital illness. Their chance encounter at a library sparks a connection that slowly blooms into a tender and transformative romance.
Kyoko's positivity and resilience stand in contrast to Shuji’s moments of self-doubt and career struggles. Her unwavering optimism and refusal to be defined by her disability become a source of strength for Shuji, inspiring him to not only embrace love but also to redefine what it means to truly live.
Their relationship, however, is not without challenges. Societal judgment, misunderstandings, and the looming shadow of Kyoko’s fragile health test the limits of their bond. Yet, love — sincere, painful, and beautiful — holds them together. In a heartbreaking yet poetic finale, Kyoko succumbs to her illness, and Shuji, through tears, gives her one final makeover — a gesture of love, honor, and farewell.
The final moments of the show offer a quiet but powerful message of hope. Years later, Shuji fulfills their shared dream by opening his own hair salon by the sea, a place they once imagined together. It is not just a tribute to Kyoko’s memory, but a symbol of how love, even in loss, gives us the courage to move forward.
The drama's poignant story is further elevated by Hajime Mizoguchi's ethereal soundtrack. His compositions — gentle, sorrowful, and uplifting — become the emotional thread that ties the entire experience together. The main theme feels like an echo of Kyoko’s spirit: delicate, enduring, and unforgettable.
As Kyoko says in the drama, “Knowing you made my life beautiful.” Likewise, for many viewers, watching Beautiful Life makes life a little more beautiful too.
