Synopsis:
In this home comedy, Makiko Esumi stars as Makoto Tachibana, a manager of an omusubi cafe. One day, she meets Sanshiro (Ikki Sawamura), a secretary at a paper shredder company, and half a year later, they already decide to get married. But when Makoto meets Sanshiro's family, a battle begins between her and her mother-in-law (Yoko Nogiwa). Their conflict is rooted in the opposing ideals of "working woman" and "housewife," which has previously been explored in dramas such as "Double Kitchen" and "Triple Kitchen" (in which Esumi and Nogiwa played similar roles).

LOL, I just lamented over the tired and played spouse vs. in-law plotline in the What Dramas are You Watching thread and now here's another... :sweat:

And with Nogiwa Yoko (apparently) reprising her role as the pain in the ass mother-in-law... ;)
