The third episode of the TV Asahi drama series "The Cheating Husband with 3 Months to Live" (Fridays at 11:15 PM, excluding some regions), starring actor Jin Shirasu, aired on May 8th, drawing anger from viewers towards the cheating wife Mizuki (Hinako Sakurai) and her lover Kenji Sunayama (Mitsunori Takahashi).
In this episode, Aoi (played by Shirasu) is hospitalized for medication treatment. Meanwhile, Mizuki and Kenji head to a hot spring inn and enjoy their trip, including soaking in the hot springs together.
As the two were in the hot springs, Mizuki clicked her tongue when she received a message from Aoi. Kenji referred to Aoi by the amount of her insurance policy, saying, "100 million yen?", and Mizuki dismissed Aoi's message abruptly, saying, "She's lucky. She doesn't have to know that she's been betrayed."
Comments on social media include: "Anyone who calls someone '100 million yen' is a scumbag even before considering the affair," "These two are only connected by 100 million yen," "The nickname '100 million yen' is too cruel," and "Stop calling them 100 million yen."
"The Cheated Husband with 3 Months to Live" is a revenge love suspense story in which Aoi, who has been diagnosed with a malignant tumor and given only a limited time to live, discovers his wife Mizuki's infidelity and goes on a quest for revenge to protect the future of his beloved son.
