"Ladies and gentlemen, my new drama "Le Diner" is about to be broadcast on TV Asahi, so please remember to tune in on time, Akemi is here to thank you!"

When a photo of Akemi dressed as a waitress in a Western-style restaurant was posted on her social media such as Titter and Facebook, the promotional campaign for Akemi's new drama "le diner" began. In this drama, Akemi plays the heiress of a famous western restaurant, the Kirizuki Restaurant, because the restaurant's number one chef, that is, the grandfather of the character played by Akemei, suddenly lost his sense of taste, and the restaurant immediately fell into a major crisis, and at this moment, a mysterious genius chef unexpectedly came to the Kizuki Restaurant, and together with the heroine played by Akemi and her grandfather, defeated the story of the chain restaurant group that wanted to buy the Kizuki Restaurant.

Although the story is a bit cliché, the cast is very luxurious, except for Akemi, who is the heroine, who has just transformed into an actor, and Akemi's grandfather is one of the actors who worked with director Akira Kurosawa back then. The actor who plays the male lead, the mysterious genius chef, is a super idol actor who became popular all over Asia as early as 20 years ago, although he is now over 40 years old, but he has become a well-known immortal legend in the entertainment industry. Of course, being able to become the heroine of this drama also has a lot to do with Akemi's previous excellent performance in the movie "Sea Village".

The first episode of "Le Dinner" was scheduled for 9 p.m. on Thursday, one of the only two prime time slots for Asahi to broadcast industry dramas, and the other two prime time slots have been occupied by mystery dramas that Asahi specializes in. It can be seen that the TV station has high expectations for "Le Dinner". And Akemi naturally has high expectations for her first TV series as the heroine, and when the time for the first episode to be screened arrived, Akemi specially called her friend Rena and asked her to evaluate her performance in this drama.

Maybe it's to relieve the pressure, at this moment Akemi is holding a box of ice cream and curling up on the sofa nervously, and then waiting for the broadcast of "Le Dinner" with anxiety, and Reina is not as stressful as Akemi at all, but she can't resist the temptation of snacks, and from time to time grabs a popcorn and puts it in her mouth.

"Akemi-chan, what is it like to be the heroine of a TV series for the first time?"

"It's not good at all, because the same group is full of seniors who have been famous for a long time, and they feel so stressed every day......! That's why I'm sitting here so nervously now, waiting for the final result of the broadcast!"

"But...... The last time you played the heroine of a movie, didn't you perform quite well?"

"To be honest, I was able to make the supervisor happy with my performance because I quietly used something to make it to the supervisor before filming, and before filming, I would repeatedly learn how to make food for filming, until the official start of filming, I would stop eating for two days in a row, so when it was time for the official shooting, my body would naturally show its craving for food, because ...... It's all because I'm hungry!"

"Haha...... It's almost like laughing at me, you actually came up with such a stupid way, no wonder I watched "Sea Village" in the first place, I saw you eat so happily, if I have the opportunity to participate in this kind of food drama in the future, I will also try this method!"

"So, in the last movie, my performance was not so much an act as an instinctive reaction. And the reason why I was selected to participate in the filming of "Le Dinner" this time is not only because of my performance in "Sea Village", but also because of my French expertise, which is also one of the key considerations of the crew, after all, this is a TV series set in French cuisine, and the names of all the dishes in the play are called in French! This alone is very demanding, so whether it is Yamazaki Senpai who plays my grandfather or Eguchi Chiyo who plays the male lead, they are learning French pronunciation very carefully, and although I don't have any doubts about pronunciation, I really don't have enough confidence in myself in the face of so many excellent seniors......"

Just when Akemi confided in Reina about the pressure encountered during the filming of "Le Dinner", the first episode of the anticipation finally appeared on the TV screen, accompanied by a soothing and melodious music, a restaurant with the French tricolor flag hanging outside the door gradually opened its door, and as the camera gradually entered the interior of the restaurant, Akemi, dressed as a restaurant manager, saluted the guests with a professional smile, and then said in a gentle and enthusiastic tone:

"Welcome to the ...... of Foggy Moon Restaurant"

Although the first episode of "Le Dinner" is about the plot of a French chef who plays Akemi's father and is admitted to the hospital due to a sudden illness. But the interesting scenes of the French restaurant and the exquisite dishes prepared in the back kitchen were really eye-opening, and the soothing music and the actors' performances made a well-received French restaurant look extra warm and comfortable. All in all, this is a series that has a bland plot but makes people feel warm and comfortable.

"Akemi-chan, I think you're actually doing a pretty good job! Especially the scene when you first appeared just now, you smile so sweetly! And some of the foods on TV look very delicious, especially the pan-fried duck breast I just saw, just looking very appetizing. By the way, where did you shoot it, I really want to try it!"

"Oh, I took it in a French restaurant in Yokohama, it's not too far from here, if you have a chance, let's try it together!"

Maybe it's because of Reina's company, when the first episode started, Akemi didn't have the nervous feeling she had just now, and she began to discuss the French cuisine in the series with Reina. I have to say that the coziness and relaxation of the French restaurant shown in the series makes people feel very comfortable.

However, just as the first episode is about to end, the chef of Kirizuki Restaurant and the restaurant manager played by Akemi send off the last guest together, and just as the chef is teaching his granddaughter and the manager of the restaurant the essence of French cuisine, the chef suddenly falls to the ground, and the story of the first episode ends.

"Ah...... Although I have known that there will be such a plot for a long time, I still can't help but feel worried about the Foggy Moon Restaurant! By the way, why didn't I see the male protagonist Uncle Eguchi appear?"

"He, he'll have his role in the next episode!"
