To be honest, it seemed like this drama was a vehicle for Kim Tae Hee in Japan, after her success in "My Princess". The plot was nothing unique neither was it executed amazingly. The plot is quite simple: A Hallyu actress falls in love with her bodyguard while in Japan.
Nishijima Hidetoshi is a lovely actor but there wasn't that much that he could really do with his role. Kim Tae Hee was adorable but her Japanese dialogue did seem to be a bit repetitive after a while.
For me the highlight of the drama was Sasaki Kuranosuke's character. He was hilarious as the actor with a hidden complex who views Nishijima as both his rival and his friend. The bromancey scenes were my favorite ones.
Also, I really loved "Superman" by Crystal Kay ... it's such a sweet song and totally fits the drama.
Honestly, this drama played it quite safe. It didn't really look at the social issues (and tensions) between South Korea and Japan. It would have been nice to see some dialogue about the Hallyu wave as well.
"Boku to Star ..." may be a predictable drama but it is still fluffy and cute.
