Shuichi Natsume and Soma

 

 

■ Koji Yusa

① Comments on the role of Shuichi Natsume

Shuichi is Akira’s brother and his only family member, so they are very close. He has an important message for Akira (that will be revealed in the show). It is a crucial role in the show and I feel a bit pressured, but I will do my best and hope Akira will be pleased with my work.

 

② To the fans

My character will be in the show from the first episode as Shuichi is Akira’s brother. There are lots of action scenes in the show, but Shuichi doesn’t perform any of it. He is trying his best though and we both appreciate you rooting for him!

 

 

 

■ Yū Kobayashi 

① Comments on the role of Soma

Soma is a person of great depth. I feel very lucky to perform this role and tried to focus on expressing his sentiments.

 

② To the fans

Thank you very much for waiting for the show. The show is full of dramas that bring you to a serious and tense world. I hope you will enjoy it!
