==Synopsis 1==
 
While working at a seaside inn with his high school buddies, Kouji Fujishiro ([[Yamada Takayuki]]) meets Kaoru Amane ([[Sawajiri Erika]]), a street musician. Kaoru is suffering from an incurable disease called XP ([[Wikipedia:Xeroderma pigmentosum|xeroderma pigmentosum]]), and can't be exposed to the sun. Under the sun, the two would never have met. Still, destiny brings the two together. Since the day he suddenly lost his job, Kouji has lost sight of his dreams. But when he meets Kaoru, who is making positive efforts to become a singer, Kouji regains his long-forgotten passion for music.  --''TBS''
 
 
 
==Synopsis 2==
 
'''A girl who can only live at night and a high school student who loves to surf as the sun rises...<br>The two had nothing in common...'''<br>
 
Kaoru Amane, 18 years old, did not attend school but instead sang herself away every night after dark at a square in front of a train station with a guitar in her hands. She led a lifestyle opposite the norm, sleeping during the day and active at night. Kaoru was suffering from XP ([[Wikipedia:Xeroderma pigmentosum|xeroderma pigmentosum]]), an illness, which also might be described as the allergy to the sun, and was not allowed to be exposed to sunlight. The only motivation in her life was singing, which also was the only connection to the outside world.
 
One day, an incident drastically changes her life...
 
 
 
Kaoru returns home at 4:00 am, before sunrise. Outside her room window, she spots a high school student standing with a surf board in his hands. It becomes her routine to watch him and his friends come and go to the ocean every morning, before going to sleep.
 
  
Their destined encounter takes place during the few hours before the break of day, drawing together two individuals that would have never met in daylight. However, Kouji does not know about her illness. The two rapidly fall for one another and continues to meet in the city at night. Then one day, an incident leads Kouji to learn of Kaoru's illness. Kaoru gives up her first love telling herself that, "I shouldn't have allowed myself to dream of a happy life. I am not normal after all." She even gives up singing. Kouji seeing Kaoru at such a state encourages her by suggesting, "Let's meet only at night," and comes up with a brilliant present for her.
