The 56th episode of the NHK morning drama " Omusubi " (General Asadora , Monday to Saturday at 8:00 AM and others), starring Kanna Hashimoto, was broadcast on December 16th, and actor Kanna Hashimoto Nakayama made his first appearance as Okawachi Yuki, a rookie member of the Seikawa Electric baseball team, attracting the attention of viewers.
In the 56th episode, a promising rookie joins the Seika Denki baseball team, to which Yui's (Hashimoto) boyfriend Shoya (Sano Hayato) belongs. He is a powerful hitter who was the home run king for two consecutive years during his university days, and according to Matsumoto (Kawanishi Kenshiro), a reporter for Sports Kansai, he boasted that he could "hit any ball."
Nakayama, who plays Okawachi, is the eldest son of the talent Hideyuki Nakayama and was born on March 18, 1999. He started playing baseball in the first grade of elementary school and contributed to Aoyama Gakuin University's victory in the Eastern Division 2 League as a pitcher. After graduating from university, he began acting, and used that experience to appear as a high school baseball player in the TV drama "Gekokujou Kyuji" (TBS).
On social media, comments such as "Is the guy inside Nakayama Hide's son?", "He also appeared in Gekokujo Kyuji", "He's good looking", and "I thought the rookie slugger had a great hitting style...I guess Nakayama Shoki was on the baseball team at Aoyama Gakuin University" were posted.
