Storyline :
The story revolves around Rinko, 33 years old screenwriter, still unmarried who lives in Tokyo. Rinko is seen out often drinking with her high school best friends Kaori and Koyuki.
She has been insatiable by both work and love. One day, just like every time, these three women are complaining about the men they have dated while dining and drinking at Izakaya when, Key, this cryptic blonde-haired young and attractive man shows up.
He then tries to convince them that it is their “If I had done” or “If I had been” attitude behind them still being unmarried. This triggers Rinko and she made up her mind that whatsoever happens, she’d get married by 2020, which is the year of Tokyo Olympic Games.
