The 93rd episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Omusubi " starring Kanna Hashimoto (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 AM and others) was broadcast on February 12th. In the episode, Ayumi ( Riisa Naka) witnessed Aiko (Kumiko Aso) having a "secret rendezvous" with a stranger, drawing the attention of viewers.
In episode 93, Ayumu happens to see Aiko, who is dressed up and out on the town. He tries to call out to her, but a strange man in a suit comes up to her and the two of them go off somewhere.
Ayumu hurriedly reports the incident to Masato (Kitamura Yukiya) and Shoya (Sano Hayato), and worries about his wife's affair. Masato replies, "That's impossible," and Shoya responds, "Maybe I'm just seeing things wrong," when Aiko returns.
Aiko was humming and seemed to be in a good mood. Ayumu was suspicious, saying, "She seems unusually happy," but Masato, though shaken, declared, "There's no way something like that would happen to Aiko!" and "I'll believe Aiko, no matter what." He warned Shoya, "You mustn't tell Yui!"
Various comments were made on social media, such as "Aiko is getting too excited lol", "An affair is impossible lol", "Aiko, are you sure that guy is okay?", "That good-looking guy works for a publishing company, so the plan is to turn the blog into a book", and "Could Aiko have fallen victim to a publishing scam?"
