NHK morning drama “Kaze, Kaoru” sees sudden proposal and student crisis in episodes 88‑89

Episode 88 of NHK’s historical morning drama “Kaze, Kaoru” follows the nurse‑in‑training Rin (Mieku Ai) as her colleague Yokozawa (Inoue Yuki) rescues a man from police violence, is later imprisoned, and unexpectedly proposes marriage to her. The episode also shows Naomi (Juri Uesaka) and Shinobu (Kiyoshi Kigoe) launching a fledgling派出看護 (mobile nursing) association, receiving their first case only to have it cancelled after Shinobu’s protest, while a letter from ShimaKen (Sano Akira) encourages Rin.

In episode 89, Rin confronts a sudden health crisis when a student collapses during her class, and Naomi continues to struggle with a lack of nursing assignments. The series, set in the Meiji era, draws on real‑life pioneering nurses Ozeki and Suzuki, and features a theme song by Mrs. GREEN APPLE.
