Netflix describes the series:

A new story has been crafted through inspiration from two songs by Hikaru Utada: the 1999 smash hit and musical gem "First Love," and "Hatsukoi," released 19 years later. The story follows a couple retracing their memories of their unforgettable first love over the course of more than 20 years and spanning three decades: the late '90s, the 2000s, and the present.
