The fourth episode of the drama series "Is It Wrong for a Woman Not to Give Birth? DINKs' Ten Months and Ten Days" (TV Tokyo, Mondays at 11:06 PM), starring actress Emma Miyazawa, will air on April 20th.
The drama is based on the manga "DINKs' Ten Months and Ten Days: Is It Wrong to Be a Woman Who Doesn't Have Children?" by Kitamitsu Atsuki. The story follows a couple who are both working and have intentionally chosen not to have children, a "DINKs" (Double Income No Kids) couple, who live a peaceful and free life until the protagonist becomes unexpectedly pregnant due to her husband's planned betrayal. The drama depicts their struggles as they search for the right form of family and continue to face choices with no easy answers.
Tetsuya (Asaka Koudai) rushes to the scene of Asa's (Miyazawa) conflict with her mother, Aiko (Nishida Naomi), and embraces her. Moved by Tetsuya's kindness in respecting Asa's wishes and agreeing to the abortion, and by the baby clothes filled with his feelings, Asa finally makes up her mind to give birth.
Meanwhile, Ogata (Hiromitsu Kitayama), who secretly watches over Asa, senses the anxiety hidden beneath her bravado. As Sayaka's (Manatsu Akimoto) trap begins to unfold behind the scenes of the reconciled couple, Asa, who has come for a health checkup, comes face to face with Sayaka at the reception desk…
The preview for the episode includes the words "Husband cheats with a stalker woman" and "The gears start to go awry," along with a scene of Sayaka, wrapped only in a bath towel, laughing loudly and saying, "It's a celebratory occasion, so let's make it extra strong."
