Double Tone drama episode 1 screenshots and recap


 Thought I would start going for a change of pace as for what dramas I watch, as of late have just been watching series from my fave actresses, think there are many more really good dramas to watch besides the ones they are in and this looked like a good choice and so far it has been, actually gets much better in the next episode. Our main two characters in this show are:

Noriko Nakagoshi as Yumi Nakano who is a single woman around 30 who works for a small advertising company, she is doing quite well there too. She's single because her ex-boyfriend died in a traffic accident though not much has been said about this yet but since that time she has refused to even think about going out with another man.

 Tomoka Kurotani as Yumi Tamura who is slightly older than Nakano and is married with one young daughter and also works part time as a clerical worker in an office. Her marriage is not going so well, the husband though appearing to be a nice guy at times isn't around her, they don't hate each other but they just don't seem too compatible.

 The first episode was mainly about meeting these two woman and seeing what kind of lives they led, this episode may have set things up too much instead of diving into the main plot but there are so many things going on or will be going on it may be a good thing it started out slow. What the story is is that these two Yumis for some strange reason when they dream while sleeping they dream about the others lives, why and how this is happening has yet to come out yet along with many things. The main thing that happened was towards the end of this episode when Nakano met Tamura's husband at a lunch meeting, he seemed to like her quite a bit and then after a mutual friend of theirs tried to set them up for a possible date, is he cheating on his wife Tamura? That's what Nakano is thinking when her friend said he didn't want to have an affair as he was single, his wife Tamura had died two years before! This sent Nakano into a bewildered state as she wondered how can she be dead when she's been seeing her life in her dreams as this first episode ends on that cliffhanger. The partial answer to that is in the next post, partial because we learn only some of what happened to Tamura, she is dead but who did it and why and also if she's dead why is Nakano still seeing her life in her dreams?
