The 37th episode of the NHK morning drama series " Kaze,Kaoru " (NHK General, Monday-Saturday 8:00 AM, etc.), starring Ai Mikami and Juri Kosaka, aired on May 19th, and viewers were captivated by the "nighttime Asadora " of the first class of nursing school students.
Rin (Mikami) tries to empathize with Chikako (Nakama Yukie), who is suffering from breast cancer, but is pushed away. Around the same time, Naomi (Uesaka) is also hurt by a harsh comment from her patient, Maruyama (Wakabayashi Tokie).
As Rin was feeling down in the courtyard, Naomi came along. Rin and Naomi confided their troubles to each other, but they couldn't find any answers. Worried when the two didn't come back even after dark, the first-year students rushed to them with dinner. And because they missed them, they all decided to eat dinner together in the courtyard.
Rin smiled and said, "It tastes better than usual for some reason," and expressed her gratitude, saying, "They just showed up unannounced...and it's reassuring to have them with me." The first-generation members laughed together while they ate.
As the bond between the first-generation members deepened, comments on social media included: "A night picnic sounds nice," "It's heartwarming," "Their bond has grown stronger. It almost brings tears to my eyes," "It's so friendly and nice," "They've become really close," and "They're calling each other by their first names, sharing their worries, helping each other out, their bond is getting stronger and stronger, it's a great feeling."
