From Japan Times:

The protagonist of "Loto 6 de 3 Oku 2 Senman-en Atate Otoko" (The Man Who Won 320 Million Yen in Loto 6)" (Asahi, Friday, 9 p.m.) is Satoshi (Takashi Soromachi), a hapless employee of a midlevel advertising agency.

Satoshi is divorced and behind on his child-support payments.

What's more, he's constantly bullied by his supervisor, who is younger than him and makes him clean up the supervisor's messes.

Satoshi is also a bit of a pachinko addict and likes to waste money at cabaret clubs.

Then one day he buys a Loto 6 lottery ticket and his life is changed dramatically, but not in ways you might expect.

The series is based on a true story.
