[Special Limited-Time Broadcast Commemorating the 34th Hashida Award] After 12 years of studying for entrance exams, he entered Waseda University, and at 38 years old, in his eighth year of university life, what realities of society await him at the end of his nearly 20 years of studying for entrance exams and university life...? The words "Born 1985, Entered 2016" are written on his student ID. Mr. Ishiguro (38) has an unusual background, having entered Waseda University at the age of 30 after 12 years of studying for entrance exams. However, even after entering, he repeatedly repeated years and took leaves of absence, making graduation seem further away. And finally, in his ninth year of university life, he graduates. Approaching 40, with the "new graduate" card in hand, he begins his final job search as a university student. The trigger for his 12 years of studying for entrance exams was a casual remark from his father. Although he passed the entrance exam for a mid-tier private university, Ishiguro, at the age of 20, was told, "You spent a year studying for the exams, and that's all you got?" Overwhelmed by this frustration, he enrolled but soon dropped out, deciding to study for the exams again. Since then, he has focused solely on Waseda University, spending 12 years studying for the exams... This decision cast a shadow over his family relationships, leading to estrangement from his father. Only his mother remained by his side, watching over him. With the sole desire to reassure his mother, he embarked on his job search, but a harsh reality awaited him. There were no age options he could select on the application forms, and he couldn't even pass the initial screening. Anxiety mounted, and his spirits began to crumble. It was during this time that he met an alumnus of his university club, a "senior" who knew everything about job hunting. Receiving precise advice and confronting his past of 12 years of studying for the exams, he gradually began to re-examine himself. A battle truly began from scratch… Narrator: Maiko Saito [Program Overview] "The Nonfiction" Airs every Sunday at 2 PM on Fuji TV Official Website: https://www.fujitv.co.jp/thenonfx/ TVer Streaming URL: https://tver.jp/series/sr7vfvos9u/ [Production and Copyright] Fuji Television ©FUJI TELEVISION NETWORK, INC.
