He had left Tokyo in disgust after an argument with the director on the set over liberties taken with a scene that he had put all his feelings into. He had intended to go to Furano, where he recalls a leading scriptwriter who had once dropped out halfway through a drama series, lives. However, he is stranded in an obscure, rural Hokkaido town because of a snow blizzard. He gets off the bus and searches for lodging but cannot find one. After many twists and turns, Takeyama finally arrives at a pub. He is bewildered to receive a welcome, but ends up drinking until he loses his memory.

He wants to get to Furano without delay, but he has lost his memory together with his mobile phone and wallet. Now he has no choice but to stay in this town. One thing leads to another and he ends up being roped in to help clear the snow … …

But he gets involved in a big misunderstanding.
Suzuki Kosuke as Matsui Hideo
The representative of Diamond Dust Odd Jobs Company. After he graduated from high school, he left this inconvenient rural town, which has nothing attractive about it, for Tokyo.
