The drama is a new installment in the "Ubai Ai" series, which has become a hot topic for its messy love-hate drama and the cast's amazing performances, and is written by series creator Osamu Suzuki. After breaking up with her lover, the protagonist Umino Manatsu (Matsumoto) makes a fresh start by changing jobs from her job as a photo magazine reporter to working in PR for the watch manufacturer "TOWANI".

What's more, she falls in forbidden love with Taimu, despite the fact that he has a wife, Mirai (Maryjun Takahashi).
In the first episode, Manatsu impulsively kisses Tokiyume, who is married. Confused by her own actions, Manatsu tells herself that adultery is wrong, but someone sends a secretly taken photo of the two of them kissing to her house, putting her in a difficult position.
