About this title

Mayuko Tsutsumi is not a very good teacher. Her students talk back to her a lot, and she has a hard time controlling her class. Sho Hasuda is one of her students. He is a troubled guy who drinks too much and mixes alcohol with pills. He is bitter and has a lot of issues relating to a bad childhood. Mayuko tries to help him, and they end up in a forbidden relationship. A much more serious take on the teacher-student relationship story.
