Takahiro Miura is the marriage partner for Ai Mikami in the Asadora"Kaze,Kaoru "

The new cast for the NHK Asadora drama "Kaze,Kaoru ," starring Ai Mikami and Juri Kosaka , which will air in the first half of 2026, has been announced on the official NHK drama website (＠nhk_dramas), and it has been revealed that Takahiro Miura will be appearing. He will play Okuda Kamekichi, the suitor of one of the main characters, Rin Ichinose (played by Mikami).

Okuda Kamekichi started a transportation business in the Meiji era in the town next to the village where Rin lives, and made a fortune in one generation. He is looked down upon by the owners of long-established stores.

Miura said, "I feel a lot of pressure because it's an important role as one of the people surrounding Rin from the beginning of the story. At the same time, I'm looking forward to creating and acting out the inner workings of the character Kamekichi, even parts that weren't in the script. I think it will be difficult because the values set in the era are quite different from a modern perspective, but I will do my best to act so that the viewers can enjoy the role."

" Kaze,Kaoru" is the 114th serial TV drama. Set in the Meiji era, it is a buddy drama featuring two trained nurses, Ozeki Chika and Suzuki Masa, as its two protagonists. The two graduated from the same nursing school, they struggle with how to interact with patients and doctors, and grow together through clashes, eventually becoming the "strongest buddy." Uesaka plays the other protagonist, Oya Naomi.
