The 79th NHK Asadora is Dandan, a story about twin girls Megumi and Nozomi who had been separated at birth by their parent's divorce, but meet unexpectedly and discover their tight bonding.

Together they decide to seek their career in singing. Tajima Megumi is an active high school girl in Shimane prefecture who loves to sings in a band on the streets.
