You and I on the G-String (2019)

Plot Synopsis

Yaeko Kogure (Haru) is a 27-year-old OL. She informs her company that she will resign to get married. Her fiance then informs her that he is in love with another woman and he breaks off their engagement. Yaeko Kogure now doesn’t have a job or a boyfriend. While crying, she hears “Air on the G String” playing live in a shopping mall. The song inspires her to enroll in a violin class for adults. There, she meets university student Rihito Kase (Taishi Nakagawa) and housewife Yukie Kitagawa (Yuki Matsushita). Yaeko Kogure becomes attracted to Rihito Kase.
