The drama is an original work by playwright and director Ayuka Kishimoto, and is a slightly dark comedy for adults that combines friendship, ramen, and classical ballet. Kita will play the main character, Karina Senbon, who works at an advertising agency and loves ramen.
Amano Hana will play the role of ballet dancer Niki Yumi, Karina's best friend since they were six years old, and Komakine Akita, Nozoe Yoshihiro, and Kintaro will also appear.
In episode 9, the package that arrived at Karina's (Kitaka) home was a set of popular ramen that she had purchased with Yumi (Amano Hana) six months ago and which had been on backorder for six months.
Karina enrolls in an adult ballet class where Yumi teaches part-time. Students Nonaka (Umezawa Masayo), Matsukane (Mayumi Tanaka), and Yamaki (Koume Tayu) warmly welcome Karina. At the social gathering after the class, Karina begs Yumi to come over to her house to make her some ramen as her "final request."
