Japan and South Korea move a little closer together on this week's "Drama Complex" (Nihon TV, Monday, 9:30 p.m.), a "full-scale detective thriller" entitled "Futatsu no Sokoku: Ai to Kanashimi no Kizuna (Two Homelands: The Bonds of Love and Sadness)."
A police detective named Eguchi is found murdered in Yokohama harbor. His partner, Nakahara (Kippei Shiina), looked up to Eguchi as he would a father, and is determined to find his killer. Nakahara determines that a man found burned to death in a car not far from the murder site was the culprit.
A young Korean woman named Myon Sung helps Nakahara by identifying the burned man as her father. Later, the detective starts to look deeper into the case and makes a shocking discovery: 31 years ago, the burned man and Eguchi were both involved in a robbery-murder case.
