The fifth episode of the TV drama series " Taigan no Kaji ~Kore ga, Watashi no Ikiru Michi~ " (TBS, Tuesdays at 10pm), starring actress Mikako Tabe viewership rating (according to Video Research, Kanto region, same below) was 5.6% for households and 3.2% for individuals.
The drama is based on the novel "Taigan no Kaji" (Kodansha Bunko) by Akeno Kayoko. Tabe plays Shiho Murakami, a full-time housewife who struggles with childcare and housework, and through her interactions with "people on the other side of the river" who have different positions and ways of thinking than her, the drama depicts the never-ending task of "housework."
In episode 5, one day, Shiho decides to go glamping. The three families gather together, and Ichigo (played by Kana Nagai) plays with children her age whom she doesn't usually have much contact with. She witnesses them having fun, learning new words and so on. As she spends her days alone with Ichigo as a full-time housewife, Shiho begins to worry that she is "depriving her of the opportunity to experience things"... and so the story unfolds.
