Uesugi Kenshin, the Sengoku period daimyo known as the "Dragon of Echigo," will be featured on the NHK Educational TV educational program "How Much Do Great People Earn Each Year?", which will air at 7:30 pm on June 16th.
Uesugi Kenshin is said to be a "righteous military commander" who would help those who turned to him for help, but in reality he had many worries and would sometimes become emotional.
By exploring episodes from his childhood, how he gained the trust of his feudal lord, the Battle of Kawanakajima with Takeda Shingen, and the reasons for his repeated expeditions to the Kanto region, Kenshin's inner thoughts become clear. And what about the final battle with Oda Nobunaga? We also get a glimpse into his true character.
