The fourth episode of the drama series "Angel Flight" starring Ryoko Yonekura will be broadcast on NHK General TV from 10:00 pm on May 24th. The subtitle of the episode is "Vietnamese Technical Intern Trainee Admired by Anime". Xuan, a Vietnamese technical intern working at a sewing factory, dies in an accident...

On the way back from the police station where Nami (Yonekura) went to collect the body, Reito (Hamatsu Takayuki) stole the body along with the car and barricaded himself in the warehouse of the factory. Rinko (Matsumoto Honoka) and Yano (Yamoto Yuma) deal with a double adulterous couple who died in an accident overseas, but when the bereaved families of both discover the affairs of the deceased, it causes a commotion.

Continuing to barricade himself inside, Reito demands that the factory manager, Kakiuchi (Kondo Yoshimasa), pay the foreign workers' unpaid wages.

This work is a dramatization of "Angel Flight: International Funeral Home Specialist" by Ryoko Sasa, winner of the 10th Kaiko Takeshi Non-Fiction Award. It depicts the activities of international funeral home specialists who transport the bodies of Japanese people who died overseas back to Japan, and foreigners who died in Japan back to their home countries. Yonekura plays Izawa Nami, a strong-willed single mother and company president.

In addition to Yonekura, the cast includes Honoka Matsumoto, Yu Shirota, Yuma Yamoto, Kayo Noro, Yu Tokui, Tamiyo Kusakari, Osamu Mukai, and Kenichi Endo. The drama was re-edited from the work distributed on Amazon Prime Video in 2024 and was broadcast on NHK BS and BS Premium 4K for the first time.
