The protagonist of the story is Hiroko Matsukata, a reporter who is literally obsessed with her work. Journalism always comes first in her life. She spends a lot of time editing each article, getting unique interviews, meeting deadlines, and making the biggest impact. Besides work, Matsukata has no other hobbies. The fact that she is an attractive woman with a young man somewhere in the depths of the office takes a back seat. She is a true "Hataraki Man."
