WOWOW

Relationships take on many forms. Some can be fleeting, delicate things that only last a moment, while others are sure and steady and can last a lifetime. More often than not, relationships fall somewhere in between, but whatever the relationship, each one is as unique as the people in them.

Take the eight different couples in this story, for example. While each of them ends up sharing a night, how that night looks and what comes the morning after is entirely different. For the man reunited with his former high school classmate, the feelings he has harbored all these years give their time together a very specific meaning. Meanwhile, an evening shared by two individuals who regularly hook up for sex takes on an entirely different one.&nbsp;

No matter what their dynamic may be, each couple in this series has this in common: they each share a meal the morning after. The question is, where do things go between them, once they’ve finished their breakfast?&nbsp;

Adapted from the manga series of the same name by Kenichi Okuyama, “One Night Morning” is a 2022 Japanese romance drama directed by Kensaku Kakimoto.

But when Ichikawa Kazuya invites her manager to have sushi with him and some other workmates, she agrees to come along.

However, Tsukasa Deno doesn’t show up to the meal, and after the event is over, Narita Misao and Ichikawa Kazuya begin texting one another. Their messages begin to hint at romantic feelings, but at work, later, Ichikawa Kazuya tells her that he has a girlfriend. Regardless, the flirtatious messages continue – until she learns that he is actually engaged to another woman.

Liar in Love

Hana (Kawashima Umika) and Mizuki (Asakawa Nana) are lifelong best friends and have been like two peas in a pod ever since elementary school. Hana, 25, works in the product development department of a major retailer. She longs to be loved, but her expressions often show when she looks at other people – leading to complications. Mizuki, meanwhile, is very protective of Hana – but is secretly quite jealous of Hana...mainly because men seem to always prefer Hana over her!

When Hana’s heart is broken by a cheating boyfriend, the duo travels to a hot spring to recover. And this is where they meet two handsome young men named Yosuke (Jin Shirasu) and Ayumu (Akihisa Shiono). While they are chatting, Yosuke chastises Hana for always taking a back seat in the conversation. This gets Hana thinking about the way she behaves. Love is about to spark between these lonely hearts – but who will end up with who? And could the balance of love be disrupted when Ayumu’s brother arrives on the scene – with love plans of his own?

This drama was based on a manga series of the same name by Eiko Tachibana, which debuted in 2019.
