I passed the University of Tokyo, but could not contact you recently …

The heroine, Mai Iwakura (Haruka Fukuhara = 24), was born to parents who run a city factory in the manufacturing city of Higashi-Osaka, a story that goes towards the dream of heaven as it deepens.

Mr. Yokoyama plays Haruto Iwakura, who is three years older than Mai. Since I was a child I hated industrial cities with the smell of oil and the noise of cars. I currently live alone in Tokyo, far from my hometown. Yuto is in his fourth year of college and is looking for work, but his family is worried about Yuto, who has not been able to contact them lately.

One night, Mai asked her mother, Megumi (Hiromi Nagasaku = 52), “Did you get a call from your brother?” “Isn’t it different from feeling depressed when you don’t get a job offer anywhere?”

“Yu Yokoyama, who is 40 and plays the role of a college student, is really great (laughs)”

Alone in a dark room, Yuto ignores Megumi’s calls. On the computer screen, a screen similar to a stock chart was displayed as if it were a day trading and Yuto was constantly watching it. It seems he has already received a job offer because he has a document from the electronics company informing him of a social meeting for potential employees.

From viewers, on the Internet, Mr. Yokoyama, who plays the role of a college student,

“Yu Yokoyama, who is 40 and plays the role of a college student, is really great (laughs)”
“His older brother also came out at a glance, but it’s amazing that Yuu Yokoyama looks like he’s 22 (effective age 41) miracle.”
“No matter how many times I think about it, the 4th year college student (estimated 22 years old) played by Yu Yokoyama (41) is too funny, seriously too young.”
“Yu Yokoyama, who plays the son, has a fantastic baby face. Nagasaku, who plays the mother, is closer in age than Fukuhara, who plays the younger sister. It’s fantastic.”

And so on.
