Synopsis

In this heartfelt home drama, Yamada Yōji and Ishii reunite for the first time in seven years since the 2018 special drama Ani Imōto. The story explores the meaning of marriage and family in modern times.

The protagonist, Hirayama Kōnosuke (Kohinata Fumiyo), has just retired from the company where he worked for many years and looks forward to enjoying a peaceful life with his wife, Fumie (Toda Keiko). However, Fumie has a secret dream—she wants to open a book café. Hoping to use Kōnosuke’s retirement savings to start her business, she is met with fierce opposition from him. What begins as a disagreement between husband and wife soon escalates into a divorce crisis, drawing in their eldest son, eldest daughter, and even their respective partners.
