Story

Aimi (Ito Ohno) moves to Okinawa and meets Vietnamese trainee Koa (Win Morisaki) at a trading partner of the travel agency that she works at. Koa is fascinated by Aimi speaking about her desire to "see the whales from her memories again". Aimi suffered with the loss of her mother from the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake. While accompanying her on a trip with Koa's company to Zazami Island where she had memories with her mother, Koa tells her "you can't change the past, but you can change the future". Aimi gradually opens up to the warmth and kindness of Koa's simple and direct nature.
This is a love store that crosses national borders, as a young Vietnamese person and a women chasing her dreams meet and are guided by fate.
