The actor couple, Akiko Hinagata and Hironari Amano, will appear on "KINCHO Presents: It's Summer" (BS Asahi), which will air from 3:00 p.m. on July 19th.
The couple, who are in their 12th year of marriage, said, "Actually, our only daughter became independent this year," and decided to go on a newlywed date in yukata. The first place they visited was Nishiarai Daishi (Adachi Ward, Tokyo), which is a place that Hinagata remembers from his childhood.
Walking along the approach to the shrine with a nostalgic feeling, Hinagata commented, "It feels like I'm back as a child, but it's strange how the familiar scenery looks different today." Meanwhile, Amano showed his "wife-crazy" side by praising Hinagata in her yukata robes, saying, "Cute! Cute!!"
To end the fun time, they head to a house in a villa area in Chiba Prefecture. In the car, the couple talk about their recent daily lives, memories of the drama they co-starred in, and the surprising reason why they decided to get married. At the end of the show, Amano surprises her by reading a letter full of love and gratitude.
After the recording, Hinagata said with a smile, "Even though we took it easy, we managed to accomplish a lot today. We enjoyed a lot of things together, and I could see a future where we spend time together just as a couple." Amano reflected, "It was a great success. Not just 100 points, but 120 points!"
