The second episode of the TV drama " Ameku M.D.: Doctor Detective " (TV Asahi, Tuesdays 9pm), starring actress Kanna Hashimoto , aired on April 29th, and attracted attention due to the appearance of popular comedians.
The drama is based on the novel of the same name by Mikito Chinen, which has sold over 3.6 million copies in total and was also made into a TV anime. This medical mystery is about the buddy team of Takao (played by Hashimoto), a genius doctor with an extraordinary intellect and insight, and Takanashi (played by Shohei Miura), an internist, who solve mysterious illnesses, murder cases, and even paranormal phenomena.
The second episode focuses on solving the mystery of a strange illness. Takao tries to diagnose Maki (Myu Moriyama), a patient who is confused after countless mysterious handprints appear on her arm, but is thwarted by his "archenemy," Sumida Junko (Kaname Ouki Kaname), the head of the psychiatry department. So Takao has Takanashi dress up as a security guard and sneak into the hospital at night to try to diagnose the patient. Appearing before the two as a security guard is Hyoroku-san, who rose to fame on TBS's popular variety show "Wednesday Downtown."
On social media, viewers commented, "Hyoroku lol," "Hyoroku?! That doesn't look strange," and "Hyoroku is really popular." Recently, it was announced that Hyoroku will be appearing in the NHK Taiga drama "UNBOUND (Berabou)" (General), and some commented, "It's amazing that Hyoroku is a security guard and has appeared in so many dramas (lol)," and "Hyoroku appears in too many dramas lol."
