New cast members have been announced on the drama's official Twitter account (@asadora_nhk) for the NHK Asadora drama series "Kaze,Kaoru " (NHK General, Monday-Saturday 8:00 AM, etc.), starring Ai Mikami and Juri Kosaka , and it has been revealed that actor Shoma Kai will be appearing in the series. This will be Kai's first appearance in a Asadora, and he will play Goro Ogawa, a second sergeant in the army.
Goro Ogawa, played by Kai, is a second-class sergeant in the army. He meets Naomi (played by Uesaka) when he visits a friend in the hospital.
Kai said, "I was so surprised when I was offered the role of Goro Ogawa. I was itching to tell everyone who always supports me. Ogawa is a soldier and looks stiff at first glance, but he is a person full of love and straightforward, and at times you want to call him out on it. I will do my best to bring a new breeze to ' Kaze,Kaoru,' which is loved by many people."
"I was very close to my grandmother, and when she passed away, I vividly remember feeling a sense of reassurance and respect for nurses. My mother also had that experience, went to school, and became a nurse. I don't think it's a coincidence that I encountered this work at this time," she commented.
"Kaze,Kaoru" is a buddy drama set in the Meiji era, centering on two trained nurses, Chika Ozeki and Masa Suzuki. The two graduates of the same nursing school struggle with how to interact with patients and doctors, clashing and growing together, eventually becoming the "ultimate buddy duo." Rin Ichinose is played by Mikami, and Naomi Oya is played by Uesaka.
