60min × 11eps|11eps

Saionji is a hard-working single woman (38) greatly admired by everyone at her IT company. But one thing she won’t do is housework! Just as she enjoys the freedom of a recently bought dream home and “life without housework,” a handsome young engineer and single father named Kusumi enters her life. When unique circumstances lead to them sharing her home together, an eccentric, fake family dynamic develops, which forces them to confront questions of what constitutes true happiness and family.

PRAYERS IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM

病室で念仏を唱えないでください   병실에서 염불을 외지 마세요   請不要在病房念佛

75 min × 1 ep / 60 min × 9 eps|Eps 10

Shoen Matsumoto is both a trained paramedic and Buddhist monk attached to a hospital. While providing emergency care straight from the mortuary while still in monk clothes unnerves some patients, Shoen nevertheless proves fully devoted to saving lives, and if that’s not possible, performing rites of spiritual passage for those that die. Dedicated to both roles, he finds himself often at odds with other doctors and colleagues over the best care for patients while bringing solace that only he can to bereaved families. As a doctor, his mission is to save lives. As a monk, it’s saving souls. Growing through this existential struggle, Shoen gives us a life-size drama in which to reflect on the true meaning of life and death.
