===Synopsis===
The first series starred Hirose Alice (16), but this one will focus on a different story with the same setting. Watanabe Ikkei (48) is reprising his role as the head of the “Dandelion Farm” that serves as a place of rehabilitation for youths who have been emotionally hurt. While the new series will again explore the relationships among the troubled youths, there will also be a story of romance between Kojima's character and a high school soccer captain played by Matsushita Yuya (20). --[http://www.tokyograph.com/news/kojima-fujiko-gets-first-starring-role-in-asu-no-hikari-wo-tsukame-sequel Tokyograph]
