The short vertical drama "Every Day, Every Might, Wide FM" starring popular voice actress Miku Ito has been released on YouTube. The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications is supporting the development of FM complementary relay stations for FM complementary broadcasting (wide FM) conducted by private radio broadcasters with the aim of preventing hearing loss and disaster preparedness. The drama was produced with the aim of deepening understanding of this issue. Ito stars in this human drama, which tells the story of Yumi and Issei, who missed each other during their student days, but reconnect through a voice exchange over the radio.
Ito commented, "It was almost my first time acting in a drama, so I was very nervous. Acting in live action is different from the usual dubbing and voicing characters, so there were a lot of things I didn't know, but the staff were very kind and gave me advice, so I think we were able to shoot something good!"
"Because the acting required important body movements and facial expressions, it was difficult to imagine what kind of expression I was making at that moment. Even now that filming is over, I still can't tell what kind of expression I was making until I see the finished product, so I'm still feeling nervous and excited. (The most memorable scene during filming) was the last scene where I see off Issei and the others as they get into the truck outside. I found it difficult because I was in a complicated state of mind, but it was also a scene where I was able to interact with the other actors, so I enjoyed it."
"Radio is a truly wonderful medium that is always there for you. Wide FM in particular provides you with a sense of security with its beautiful sound. I would be delighted if this drama inspires you to incorporate radio into your daily life and in preparation for emergencies!"
