The 82nd episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Omusubi " (General TV, Monday to Saturday at 8:00 am and others), starring Kanna Hashimoto , was broadcast on January 28th, and viewers' attention was drawn to the blog of Yui's (Hashimoto) mother, Aiko (Aso Kumiko).
In the 82nd episode, Yui's (Hashimoto) childhood friend, Natsumi ( Shima Tabata), also known as "Nacchan," proposes a new revitalization plan to enliven the Sakura-dori shopping street. With the help of Yui and others, "Aurora Gyoza" and "Almost Melon Bread" were developed with the aim of becoming the shopping street's specialty menu items.
Meanwhile, at the Yoneda household, Aiko is checking the blog "My Gal" when she sees a new comment from a reader, and happily tweets, "Another comment!"
Aiko showed Ayumi (Riisa Naka) her computer screen, and when she looked through an entry titled "Gal Neechan Laughs It Off," she asked Aiko, "What's this? Me?" Aiko nodded, "Yes," and replied, "'Gal Neechan' is popular, too." Ayumi was surprised by the number of comments from readers, and Aiko happily told her, "People all over Japan are reading it, and even my mother was surprised."
Aiko's blog, "Uchi no Gal-san," has appeared many times in the drama before, but it was revealed for the first time in this broadcast that it has grown into such a popular blog that it has received over 100 comments from readers.
On social media, comments such as "Aiko has become a popular blogger lol," "It's likely to be turned into a book," "I wonder if Aiko's blog will play a role here, spreading the appeal of the shopping district," and "I have a feeling this will be related to the story going forward."
