Morniko Asahina (played by Ai Hashimoto) is a female student studying German at graduate school. Due to her introverted personality, she often feels unable to integrate smoothly into groups, which troubles her greatly. One day, Professor Ikuo Sakaki (played by Min Tanaka) praises Morniko's Japanese, making her feel elated. From that day on, Morniko begins to pay attention to this elderly yet elegant professor, feeling a strong attraction towards him. During a training program, Morniko meets Ren Tanaka (played by Asuka Kudo) and his admirer, Juri, which leads to a poignant and painful love story. The joys and sorrows of Tanaka and Juri lead Morniko to decide to confess her feelings to Ikuo. Will Ikuo genuinely accept a love that is bound to be rejected by societal norms?
