Set in 1921, Kenji Miyazawa's Table follows the inspiring journey of Kenji Miyazawa. After leaving his wealthy family to live independently in Tokyo for eight months, Kenji returns home in late summer upon receiving a worrying telegram about his younger sister, Toshi. However, he discovers that his father, Masajiro, fabricated the illness out of concern for Kenji living alone. Still searching for his true calling, Kenji recreates the delicious korokke potato croquettes he tasted in Tokyo and shares them with his family. This simple act of culinary connection sparks a deep realization: sharing his happiness with others is his ultimate life goal. Inspired by Toshi's wish, Kenji decides to embark on a new path, becoming a teacher at a newly established agricultural school. This heartwarming drama beautifully captures the themes of family, self-discovery, and the joy of sharing.
