Me and the Prez, Drinking Under the Stars
社長と酒と星
Synopsis
Young company president Reina vents her struggles to a starry sky, unaware her subordinate Kenichi overhears and vows to support her.
At 24, Reina Izutsu has recently become the new president of Izutsu Printing after taking over for her late father. Young and not quite experienced, Reina wants to do her best but unfortunately comes across as harsh with her employees. Stressed and feeling lost, Reina spends an evening drowning her sorrows in beer at an empty park. She rants and vents out loud to the starry sky that she wants to give up and quit being president, just letting off steam. Except, she fails to realize that her subordinate, 37-year-old section chief Kenichi Ishizumi, heard her drunken ramblings! But rather than use this against her, Kenichi finds himself charmed by the young woman. He vows then and there to support her and help her find her way as company president, no matter what!
