The second episode of the NHK Asadora drama series "Kaze,Kaoru " (NHK General, Monday-Saturday 8:00 AM, etc.), starring Ai Mikami and Juri Kosaka , aired on March 31st, and viewers were captivated by an unexpected person that Naomi (Naomi Oya) encountered.
" Kaze,Kaoru" is based on the story of two trained nurses, Chika Ozeki and Masa Suzuki, who graduated from the same nursing school. The drama depicts how these two women struggle with how to interact with patients and doctors, grow through their conflicts, and eventually become the "ultimate buddy" duo. Mikami plays the main character, Rin Ichinose, and Uesaka plays the other main character, Naomi Oya.
Rin enjoys the summer festival with her childhood friend Kotaro (Toranosuke Kobayashi) and her family, but the village is threatened by cholera.
Meanwhile, Rin's mother, Mitsu (Mizuki Mizuno), who was visiting Tokyo for her younger sister Yasu's (Miharu Hayasaka) marriage arrangements, gets pickpocketed in the street. Naomi happens to pass by and says, "If you're going to pickpocket, steal from the rich. It's pathetic to steal from a weak country bumpkin like me," and retrieves Mitsu's wallet. Mitsu chases the pickpocket away, calling him a "loser," and tells Naomi, "It's also wrong to say that you should steal from the rich."
Rin and Naomi will become partners in the future. Before the two meet, Naomi meets Rin's mother and sister, which has led to comments on social media such as "What a shocking encounter," "It's a fated meeting," "A moment that feels like destiny," "The mother and sister meet Naomi first," "This is where Naomi and the Ichinose family make contact," and "Both Naomi and Rin's mother are great characters."
