The first episode of the drama series " Who saw the peacock dance in the jungle? " (TBS, Friday 10pm) starring Suzu Hirose Komugi, played by Hirose, became a hot topic on social media.
◇The following contains spoilers
The drama is based on the manga of the same name by Rito Asami. It is a suspense story about the intertwining of "love and destiny" between a parent and child caught up in a false accusation case.
Kokoro Mugi is a university student who has been living alone with his father, Haruo Yamashita (Lily Franky), a former police officer, since losing his mother at an early age. However, Haruo is suddenly murdered. The culprit who was quickly arrested was Tomoya ( Yoshi Sakou), the son of Rikiro Endo (Sakami Yoshi), who was arrested 22 years ago as the perpetrator of the Togayama Incident, in which a wealthy family was brutally murdered.
Kokoro Mugi will pursue the truth of the incident together with lawyer Matsukaze (Matsuyama Kenichi), whose name was in the letter left by Haruo. Meanwhile, a weekly magazine reporter, Kamui (Isomura Hayato), appears and tells Kokoro Mugi a shocking statement: "You're not Yamashita's real daughter, are you?"
In the Togayama incident, in which six members of a family were murdered, it was reported that only the six-month-old second daughter miraculously survived. This led to comments on social media such as, "Could the second daughter who survived the incident actually be Kokoro Mugi...?" and "The baby at the time of the incident was only six months old, so is it likely that Kokoro Mugi is the second daughter from back then?"
Other comments that were raised included, "Suzu Hirose has an irresistible, powerful presence," "It was fun! Suzu Hirose is a genius after all," "The casting of Suzu Hirose and Matsuyama Kenichi was divine," and "The stability of Suzu Hirose and Matsuyama Kenichi is also great," which became a hot topic.
