Baby don't hurt me ... don't hurt me ... no more ... and so forth. You may know the song. Not exactly Japanese ... but I do no know any song that would work as a summary headline (so no pun intended). A man goes to Japan ... and well finds a young woman ... takes a liking to her to put it mildly. Now he is already married - so if you don't mind the age gap, you might mind that he is cheating on his wife.

Then again considering with what certain politicians get away with nowadays and their "cult following" not really minding that .. I don't know what to tell you ... you figure out your own moral compass or if you want to judge ... whatever the case, complications arise ... and the old white man does not handle this new relationship well ... which brings quite a few culture clashes ... and other stuff that don't work out .. in the best way I reckon.

Well acted to say the least ... but also niche ... drama, so check if that even floats your boat.
