It has been announced that actor Aoi Morikawa will star in the Fuji TV drama series "Stingers: Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department Undercover Investigation Investigation Room" (Tuesdays 9pm), which will begin airing on July 22nd at 9pm. This will be Morikawa's first time starring in a Golden Prime time drama, and she will play a sharp undercover investigator.

The drama is an original story that depicts the exploits of the "Stingers," a maverick team within the Metropolitan Police Department that takes on the "undercover operation" system, which is still unclearly established in Japan. The protagonist is a female investigator who has returned from the United States, and the drama is set in a pop worldview.

Morikawa plays Nikaido Tamiko, the leader of the Metropolitan Police Department's newly established team, the Stingers (undercover investigation verification room). A top career police inspector who returned to Japan after learning authentic "sting operations" at the FBI, she is an investigative professional who is adept at disguise, improvisation, psychological manipulation, and trick construction. Her explanations are concise, her instructions are full of mystery, and her eccentric actions leave her subordinates at a loss.

Morikawa commented, "I'm really looking forward to playing a detective for the first time. Even though Stingers is a detective drama, it's not a serious one; rather, the investigative team has fun devising strategies and carrying out investigations, so I thought that if everyone on the team could get along, we could make a fun and wonderful drama."

Addressing viewers, he said, "I think it will be a thrilling, suspenseful drama worth watching. I hope that everyone will enjoy watching the drama and getting fooled along with us. I hope you will look forward to it!"

Programming and producer Mito Yusuke said, "I can't help but be excited to see what kind of character will emerge when Morikawa plays the unconventional investigator Nikaido Tamiko, a top career woman formerly with the FBI. This is an unpredictable 'deception-filled detective drama' filled with disguises, psychological warfare and improvised tricks. I hope you will look forward to 'Stingers.'"
