Plot

Kensuke Goto is an excellent doctor who used to work at a university hospital in Tokyo, but for some reason he is transferred to a clinic on the remote island of Koshikijima. The island has been without a doctor for three months, and he was not very welcomed. In addition, Ayaka Hoshino, a nurse who has been on the island for 4 months, tells him that there are few patients who come to the clinic, and even if they do, they will only receive first aid and then go to a hospital on the mainland, which takes 6 hours by boat. Since then, Goto has earned the trust of the islanders through the treatment of many patients and his personality.

Template:Portrayed by
A young, prominent surgeon, who left a prestigious hospital in Tokyo and moved to an isolated island in the southern part of Japan. He works at a clinic there as the only doctor on the island. He was not necessarily welcomed by the islanders first as they had negative experience with former doctors at the clinic. But with his sincere attitude toward the patients and commitment to his work, Kensuke gradually developed good rapport with his patients. "Koto", his nickname, was given to him by Takehiro Hara when he made a sign for the clinic after operating on him, and written Koto instead of Goto. He has a habit of only eating cup noodles, even when Hoshino brings him a homemade bento. He tend to get motion sickness when on vehicles, and would often vomit after riding a vehicle, often on Hoshino.
