◇The following contains spoilers.
Wu Tie was having a meeting with the members and staff of "Blaze Bulls" at a Chinese restaurant. Among them was Hao (Yuta Tamamori), who had become a member of the "Blaze Bulls" staff.
Just then, Hiroe arrived at the shop and, upon seeing Kou and Gotetsu, reacted by covering her mouth with her hand and saying, "Oh my, no way." Without hesitation, she immediately called out, "You're Gotetsu, aren't you? Wow, it's been a long time, it's been ages," which left Gotetsu bewildered.
After introducing herself to the team members, Hiroe suddenly confessed, "I'm the ex-wife of Wu Tie." Then, ignoring Hao's attempts to stop her, she revealed to Wu Tie, "Hao is my son. That means Hao is your son."
Social media was buzzing with comments like, "Tomoko Yamaguchi is so outrageous, it's the best," "Hiroe, played by Tomoko, is amazing. I'd love to have a drink with her!", "That's the destructive power you expect from Tomoko Yamaguchi," "Tomoko Yamaguchi's character is great," "I really love how playful Tomoko Yamaguchi is," "Hiroe's role is so typical of Tomoko Yamaguchi," and "Tomoko Yamaguchi is just too eccentric lol."
The drama follows Wu Tetsuya, a genius astrophysicist played by Tsutsumi, as he solves difficult problems facing the underdog team "Blaze Bulls" from his unique perspective. It's a story of redemption where the team, friends, and family reconnect.
