In Thailand, Yutaka meets Touko at a bar and is instantly drawn to her. His relationship with her only intensifies as the wedding date approaches. Eventually, he decides to break up with her and calls Michiko in front of her. Touko is disappointed, and the next day she leaves for New York. Yutaka and Michiko reunite in Thailand and proceed with their wedding. Twenty-five years later, Yutaka and Michiko are married with two sons. But Yutaka still harbors memories of Touko in his heart.

A bright, hard-working, 'good man'

who may be considered good husband

material by Japanese elders.

""To live is to prepare for goodbye...""

""For loneliness is a friend who will not betray".

"Shiver not in the pouring love,

instead buy an umbrella...""

Buy an umbrella?.

Give it back to me!

I'll let you see it when I'm done.

"Sayonara Itsuka?. "

Why prepare for "goodbye" ?.

What's the point of writing this poem?.

I want to see you off at the airport...

Why?.

Weren't you preparing for "goodbye"?.

That's 'just a poem', sir.

I'll be all alone for three months.

What am I going to do?.

What else?. You'll wait for me.

Wait, wait.

Stop, stop.

Shall I not go?.

Koseinen, what a big lie!

A koseinen should behave.

We made a promise.

To wait until our honeymoon.

Sorry.

I can't wait.

Therefore, we have decided to expand...

Eastern Airlines's flights to Southeast Asia.

Singapore,

Kuala Lumpur,

Manila,

and Bangkok.

One of these four airports

will become our Southeast Asian hub

and the focal point of our regional expansion.

In other words,

whether we remain as the Bangkok branch,

or become Southeast Asia headquarters

lies solely on our results.

This is a good opportunity.

So let's keep it up.

I have a suggestion.

What is it?.

What is it this time?.

Go on.

Tell me, why is our gate

stuck in a corner out of everybody's sight?.

Why can't we be next to Pan Am?.

Why can't we be right at the center of attention,

like Air France?.

What's your point?.

We should move.

Can it be done?.

Why not?.

Come on. How could we possibly pull that off?.

You think you can do it?.

"Mai pen rai." (no problem)

Wow... She's beautiful!

I look much better.

How nice.

I'm so jealous.

Did you set the date?.

Congratulations! Cheers!

Here's to the groom!

Alright everyone, listen, effective immediately,

Yutaka Higashigaito is officially expelled

from the Japanese Bachelors' Association.

What are you talking about?.

I still have a few months left.

So?.

You'll play it like a bachelor

until your fiance shows up?.

I don't believe it. You greedy bastard.

Did you see that?.

That smile...

stole all my girls since high school...

Three months, can you wait?.

Of course.

I love her.

Did you hear that?.

All my ladies fell for that sh*t!

Your "ladies"?.

Just because a girl is hot doesn't mean

she's your "lady."

Why isn't she coming?.

Who?.

My lady.

There he goes again.

Let's see how long it lasts.

It was always over before you even got started.

She is different.

She's a goddess.

Words can't describe her.

When she walks by,

every man melts like piles of sh*t.

It's like Moses and the Red Sea,

like a parting sea, paving the path...

We must worship her.

Once she showed up without a bra...

There they were... Her nipples...

Her perky nipples...

They are a work of art.

It's crowded here.

Please, sit here.

Hey, how about an introduction?.

Th- this is Touko Manaka...

And this is... umm...

Hey, what was your name?.

Let's toast, cheers!

You don't mind beer?.

There's only foam.

Cheers! To a happy marriage!

Is someone getting married?.

He is.

Congratulations.

Cheers.

Did you read the papers?.

The Americans are withdrawing.

What do you mean?.

Vietnam, don't you know?.

America lost.

So did Japan.

Finally, Eastern Airlines proudly brings to you

our special raffle for exclusive tour packages

Catherine, did you try out the strawberry shampoo

I got you from Japan?.

This is my friend, Yutaka.

Find a nice Japanese girl for him, yeah?.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

See?. Eastern Airlines is the best!

"Yutaka Higashigaito"

Number 7!

- Who is it?.

- Shut up.

She went down.

Mrs. Yamada.

Yes?.

I believe you know Mr Somnakul's wife.

Yes, I know her well.

I heard that the Japanese give up their lives

for their country, their company,

and their society?.

That is true.

Yutaka-san

That is Mr. Somnakul, the Prime Minister's

Secretary. And this is his wife.

He has only five minutes.

Why does a small airline like Eastern Airlines...

need a gate in the middle of Don Muang Airport?.

Because Eastern Airlines

will be the world's top airline.

By overcoming troubles and hardship...

bearing the crown of thorns?.

Ko-sei-nen! Ko-sei-nen!

You want me to bunt?.

Look at the score.

One down, bottom of the ninth.

A shot over the fence, and we go home.

With you, it's home run or fly-out.

Leave it to Kimura.

What's so hard about laying down a sacrifice bunt?.

All you have to do is stick your bat out.

Just move him to second.

I smashed it earlier.

And then two fly outs after that.

Kimura is clutch.

But he hasn't hit anything today.

Cause, you never gave him the chance.

Defer and ""Sacrifice.""

For the team.

Suthep?.

The homerun ball.

I received a phone call

from Mr. Somnakul's office.

We're moving the gate.

Next to Pan Am.

Wow! Man, one homerun after another!

Everybody listen up!

Our gate will be moved to...

Yutaka Higashigaito.

Nice work.

Sir...

Mr. President...

President Higashigaito...

Mr. Higashigaito.

Mr. Higashigaito.

Aren't you going to answer the phone?.

What, what?. Yes...

Sales and marketing, Higashigaito speaking.

Busy?.

Excuse me?. Who is this?.

Touko Manaka.

Shall we meet?.

What?.

Do you want to see me?.

The Oriental Hotel.

Somerset Maugham Suite.

Good Afternoon.

Sir, are you looking for Somerset Maugham Suite?.

I need to wash...

I like the smell of your sweat.

Yutaka...

You want to know?. How I feel?.

It's like spotting the one-of-a-kind

Louis Vuitton bag,

when you were least expecting it.

You know?.

That you'll regret not getting your hands on it.

That's how I feel.

Mr. Louis Vuitton, what is your dream?.

My dream?.

I wanted to fly.

Always wanted to fly, ever since I was a kid.

Then why didn't you become a pilot?.

A pilot can only fly one plane at a time.

I want to fly thousands at once.

I want to cover the entire sky...

with my planes...

'The city of angels', the great city,

the eternal 'jewel city',

the impregnable city of God Indra,

the grand capital of the world endowed

with nine precious gems,

happy city, abounding in an enormous Royal Palace

where reigns the reincarnated god,

a city given by Indra,

and built by Vishnukam".

That's the real name of Bangkok.

Why did you come to Thailand?.

To get promoted.

Why don't you ask me anything?.

You wouldn't answer anyway.

Ask me. I'll tell all.

No.

Hurry up and ask.

Which is more?.

The number of shoes you own,

or the number of men you had?.

Tough question...

Where are you from?.

Earth.

The hotel is your home?.

Yes.

Why?.

See?. You'd never tell me anyway.

There's no point.

Your fiance, is she pretty?.

No. Yes.

No. Yes?.

She's pretty.

How did you meet?.

It's a secret.

Do you like this car?.

When this car would roll down the streets,

girls in Germany just fell over right there.

Mercedes-Benz,

Friedrich Geiger's best work.

independent coil spring suspension,

stabilizers...
