This year is the yakudoshi, or "unlucky year" for 32-year old Akiko (Shinohara Ryoko), a television announcer. She lost her position in a news program to a rookie announcer. What’s worse, she is assigned to go undercover and experience life as a farmer’s bride for a variety program. Akiko pretends to be the fiancée of Ichiro (Yabe Hiroyuki), her ex-boyfriend, and begins her "bridal training" at the peach farm of Ichiro’s parents.

Robert Weiss Jun 06 2017 9:24 am This is one of the finest programs I've seen on TV. Although I don't know any Japanese and have never visited Japan, I get a feel of Japanese culture. It is clear there is a clash of values between those who live in the city versus the country. Nature also plays a huge role in the series, and, in particular, peaches. The delicious taste of the peach affects and transforms many lives in this wonderful story. The growing maturity of the two main characters as they face a myriad of crises gives an unusual emotional and psychological depth to the narrative. Akiko learns to be less selfish and to care for others and Ichirou to face hidden wounds and take responsibility. Indeed, when Akiko tastes the Mother's peach, Akiko's life begins to unfold in ways she never dreamed and romance begins to develop and blossom.
