This is the story between single mother housekeeper and mathematics professor,who has a brain damage.

The quiet life of a mother and her young son living on a farm in Hokkaido is changed by the arrival of a man who ignites flames of romance in the heart of the mother and shows her boy the importance of grit and kindness, but then he leaves with the autumn wind.

这是一部感人至深的制作，在日本很受欢迎，制作者每年推出一集，连续上演多年，而参加演出的演员阵容却没有变化，从而在艺术上实现了真实。在剧中扮演父亲的是日本著名的老演员田中邦 卫，曾经因为在《背叛》、《非凡的勇气》、《八墓村》等影视剧中的演出赢得了很好的声誉，而中国观众记忆最深的则是他在《追捕》中塑造的反派角色横路进二。在《北国之恋》中，他扮演的父亲朴实、勤劳、忠厚，为了一对儿女付出了一生的精力。在《北国之恋》中扮演兄妹的吉冈秀隆、中岛朋子都是从十岁起就开始参加该部电视剧的拍摄，可以说他们是随着这部电视剧长大的，当《北国之恋》最终封镜时，这对当年的童星也成了日本演艺界的名人。此外，在本剧中客串出演的有竹下景子、宫泽理惠等著名演员。

Chagawa dreams of publishing a successful novel and settling down with Hiroi and Junnosuke, but his day job running the candy store keeps him busy, and Hiroi mistakes his tight schedule for a lack of interest in her. Hiroi has also embarked on a secret career as a burlesque dancer, which isn't doing much to improve her opinion of men. At the Suzuki household, seven-year-old Ippei isn't happy to be sharing the house with a guest, his distant cousin Mika who is the same age but far more demanding. Mutsuko, the apprentice female auto mechanic, is still staying with the Suzukis, and she's becomes the object of the affections of Takeo, a downbeat young man who is studying cooking.

He dreams of sparing Junnosuke the struggles that he has faced as a writer. The family continues to rely upon Hiromi's income from her bar. Meanwhile a rival story, The Virus, by a new writer has appeared in the periodical that has been publishing his stories "Boy's Adventure Book" and he fears the new competition. Norifumi Suzuki also receives a new TV, but more of a deluxe model.

Husband and wife Michiko and Takao move from their urban existence in Tokyo to the isolated, rural farming village where Takao grew up.

Following the death of the unmarried and childless Taki, Takeshi, a young relative of hers, discovers several pages of closely written lines in which the old lady has recorded her memories. This is how he learns the truth about her youth working as a housemaid and nanny for the Hirai family in a little house in Tokyo with a red gabled roof.

When easy-going Aoyagi meets an old friend for a fishing trip, he ends up drugged, framed for the Prime Minister's assassination, and on the run from corrupt cops. It's only the beginning of what quickly becomes the worst, weirdest day of his life. But he'll get by with a little help from his friends, who include a famous pop diva, a rockabilly deliveryman, a crippled old gangster, and the world's most cheerful serial killer.
