The seventh episode of the drama series " Who saw the peacock dance in the jungle? " (TBS, Friday 10pm) starring Suzu Hirose was broadcast on March 7th. The wife of Akazawa Tadashi (played by Takahiro Fujimoto), Kyoko, played by Nishida Naomi, became a hot topic on social media.
◇The following contains spoilers
While Kyoko is preparing a birthday cake for her son Mamoru (Kota Nomura), she receives a message from Akazawa saying, "I'll be late today. Sorry." As she reads the message and thinks about it, Mamoru comes home.
Looking at the feast and cake lined up on the table, Mamoru said, "Oh, that's fine. I do it every year. I'm an adult after all." Kyoko smiled and said, "Even when I'm an adult, I'm still a child. In my mother's eyes," to which Mamoru replied, "Well, I suppose so. Thank you."
After announcing that Akazawa will be coming home late, Kyoko is shown showing Mamoru the cake and saying, "Look. Isn't it amazing? My mom made it."
On social media, comments such as, "I wonder what Akazawa's wife's face will be when she sees the LINE message saying 'I'll be late'" and "I feel like Akazawa's wife is guilty..." were posted.
Akazawa had asked Kyoichiro Awayama (Hajime Inoue) to forge the birth certificate of Uta Hayashikawa, who survived the Togayama Incident in 2002. He was also present when Uta became a member of the family of Haruo Yamashita (Lily Franky) under the name Komugi Mugi (Hirose), and Kyoko was also there.
Kyoko, holding Uta in her arms, took her to Yamashita Shizuka (Sendo Atsuko). While Shizuka was overwhelmed and said, "How cute!", Kyoko was seen calling out to Uta, saying, "I'm your mommy!"
On social media, opinions were also posted such as, "Could Akazawa's wife be Uta-chan's mom?", "Is Akazawa's wife the mastermind and Uta-chan's mom?", "Akazawa's wife is being cryptic", "Akazawa's wife is suspicious. In the video, when she said "She's the mom," it didn't seem like she was referring to Yamashita's wife. Somehow, it looked like she was the mom. The way she treated Komugi also seemed too close...hmm, is that possible?", and "Akazawa's wife is creepy... is she actually Komugi Mugi's real mother?"
