おとなの掟 Otona no okite
Doughnuts Hole
Released in February 2017, this song was written by Ringo Sheena. Doughnuts Hole is a name of a quartet used in the jdrama, "カルテット, Quartet". With the drama, this song gained a lot of popularity.
The members of this quartet were played by two actors and two actresses: Issei Takahashi, Ryuhei Matsuda, Takako Matsu and Hikari Mitsushima.
The two actresses are famous for their ability as a singer as well. The combination is superb and the song and its PV matches well with the image of this drama.
I personally love the drama written by one of the popular screen writer, 坂元 裕二Yuji Sakamoto. If you liked this drama, I strongly recommend to watch other dramas written by him.
