Today, Bunya Jun told you about a Japanese drama with the theme of derailment, and the late-night new drama "Lifebuoy Friends Above Derailment" is being broadcast by TV Tokyo.
Of the dozens of Japanese dramas in each season, there will be one or two about the unruly theme, such as "The Melancholy of the Betrayed Tagawa", which was just finished two days ago, and the previous "Winter of Love" and "Unpleasant Fruit" and so on.
Most of the derailment theme Japanese dramas will be more hardcore, that is, there will be a more bold picture, but there are also Japanese dramas that depict the inner hearts of the characters more delicately such as "Day Face".
The same is true of the "Lifebuoy Friends Above Cheating" that Today's Buya Jun wants to talk about, and the plot setting is a bit like Wong Kar-wai's movie "Fancy Years".
The heroine, Mai Nakayama (played by Mai Motowaki), follows her job-moved husband Takuya Nakayama (played by Shunsuke Ohto) to Tokyo and moves into an employee apartment.
Living next door to the new home are husband's colleagues Ichiba (played by Naotaro Moriyama) and Seiji Ninba (played by Naomi Nishida), of which husband Ichi Ninba is the male protagonist of the play.
The heroine and her husband were married for two years, they lost their passion, the husband returned home every day, while eating while watching TV, did not listen to his wife well, the two people's lives seemed too plain.
In his new work environment, her husband reunites with a younger woman he met in his early years, Fukuda Bu (played by Mishako Renfo).
Soon, he cheated on the female colleague, and the heroine also found that her husband, who came home late every day, had cheated on the female colleague.
The male protagonist Erye is not much better, and they have no passion when they are married for a longer time.
The wife has gone out to work, so the male protagonist returns home and often eats alone.
Mrs. Nichiba believes that it would be better not to focus on her husband or family, but to have a job or hobbies.
In addition to work, Mrs. Nichiba would go to the pottery classroom to learn pottery, but she cheated on the young man in the pottery classroom.
The male protagonist witnessed the intimate interaction between his wife and the young man, and he did not have a showdown with his wife for the first time.
And the heroine who suspects that her husband is cheating also hides this in her heart.
The neighbors, who encounter the same situation, develop into spiritual partners.
The female and male protagonists are responsible for the garbage disposal in their respective homes, and they can always meet in the garbage collection room every morning.
The two people with the same introverted personality will be embarrassed to nod to each other at first, and they will not dare to look at each other.
They would also stand on the balcony together in the evening when the other half came home, one blowing wind and one smoking.
The balconies of the two houses are separated by a wood-paneled wall that reads "In case of emergency, please break this wall to escape".
This wall is a very reassuring presence for these two introverts, so that they can talk to each other without seeing each other.
After having enough peace of mind, I will also stick my head out to look at each other.
The female protagonist told the male protagonist that she suspected that her husband had cheated, and the male protagonist also said about his own family, and the two people who pitied each other with the same disease felt sorry for each other.
The communication between the two people is mainly across the wall, and the female protagonist is found crying, and the male protagonist hands her a tissue under the wall.
The female protagonist shares the food to the male protagonist as a gift.
The relationship between the two people with the same troubles and talking to each other gradually becomes closer, and when the garbage is encountered, they will no longer be embarrassed to look at each other, breathe in the fresh morning air together, and play with the white sideline of the road together.
The title of the play, "Lifebuoy", refers to the male protagonist, the female protagonist falls into the shadow of her husband's derailment, as if falling into the sea, and the male protagonist is like a lifebuoy, saving the female protagonist.
The spirits of the two became closer and closer, and gradually became ambiguous.
The director of this drama is "At the age of 30, it seems that he will become a magician", and in this "Lifebuoy", you can also feel the director's ability to describe the delicate description of the character's heart.
The director uses "wall", "red headlights", etc. to metaphorically describe the relationship between the male and female protagonists and the change of mood, can they break through the "wall" to derail?
