    "Love Generation SP" is a special television drama, a condensed version of the original series "Love Generation". After the original series broke Japanese viewership records and sparked a "crystal apple" love symbol craze in Southeast Asia, this special edition condensed the original content into a two-hour special through editing and reconstruction. It opens with Matsu Takako leading viewers on a tour of the original drama's filming set, showcasing props and leading into a retrospective segment. The main content is a compilation of classic scenes from the original series, recreating the relationship between Riko and Teppei through scene connections, fully preserving the original narrative structure and visual symbolism.

    Katagiri Teppei is an advertisement designer, but he's forced to be transferred to the Sales Department because of his egocentric behavior. He is forced to adapt to a new working environment, which includes changing his appearance to create a more professional image as a salesman. He runs into Uesugi Riko at work, who always fights with him, and his high school sweetheart, Mizuhara Sanae, whom he still loves only to find out that she's engaged to his brother, Soichiro. Things take an unexpected turn between them and later on leads to a complicated love triangle.
