This paper examines the actual state and implications of singer Tokiko Kato’s commuter marriage as described in her memoirs by decoding her situation and comparing it with the author’s existing research data. Unlike a common concept of a commuter marriage as a temporary treatment, their separation period lasted as long as 21 years. Her husband’s move into farming led to their separation. Upon reaching a decision to separate, Kato experienced hesitation and emotional conflict, and even encountered a divorce crisis—few informants identify similar conditions. Main factors underpinned the hesitation were a lack of foresight and preparation in dealing with the separation, a lack of a person who could assist domestic duties and child-rasing in her new residence, and her husband’s conservative perspective on marriage. However, by being liberated from conventional wisdom, the couple not only avoid a crisis in their relationship, but also grew to accept the separated lives, which in turn led both to achieving self-actualization. The ideal and practice of “farming life” that Kato succeed from her husband asks people to reconsider their own lifestyle individually. It can be considered that her life of separation had a significance for society and future generations, in way that supersedes the issues of maintaining her work and intimate relationship.
