It has been revealed that former AKB48 member, actor and model Shinoda Mariko will be appearing as Shinano, an assassin from Kuzuryu, the rival organization of the fraud organization Genju, in the drama series "Infiltrating Brothers and Sisters: Special Fraud Special Investigator" (Nippon TV, Saturday 10pm), co-starring Ryusei Ryo and Yagi Rikako. Shinoda said, "Shinano's various emotions give rise to feelings of inferiority and obsession. She also wants to be recognized and to be useful to others. I created the role of creating justice within her."
"Infiltrating Brothers and Sisters" is an original work by the staff of "Big Hospital Occupation" and "New Airport Occupation". It is a suspense story in which former police officer Watarase Kiichi (Ryusei) and white hat hacker sister Yuki (Yagi) infiltrate the organization and confront the evil, making use of each other's special skills, to avenge their father, a police officer who was murdered by a senior member of Japan's largest fraud organization Genju.
◇Comment from Shinoda Mariko
This drama was a hot topic and I enjoyed watching it as a viewer, so I was really happy when I was chosen to appear! There were many thrilling developments that made it hard to predict what would happen next, so I read the script I was given in one go and I strongly felt that this role was something I wanted to play!
Shinano's various emotions give rise to feelings of inferiority and obsession. And her desire to be recognized and to be useful to others. I created a role that creates justice within her. There are many cases of illegal part-time work in the world, but I hope that through this drama, you will be able to see the fear of stepping into something that is not just someone else's problem, but something that is close to you, and I would be happy if you could watch it and feel that you will stop. It is a work that can be enjoyed from various angles, so I hope you will watch it!
