The other parties in the agreement are living up to their obligations, but childish Japan will not because of the abduction issue....Japan just needs to get over their problem and join the Big Boys Club.

The story is about a saleswoman (Nakama), who has hidden troubles in her family. She falls in love with a plasterer (Ryo Kase) who also has family troubles, after they both prevent a man from committing suicide.
