Kimura's new drama

[scottishlass]

Next season, Fuji TV's Monday night drama will star the ever-popular Kimura Takuya. He plays an elementary school teacher who, due to some circumstances, gets involved in the world of politics and eventually becomes the Prime Minister of Japan.

The show, which is currently untitled, is being produced by Goto Hiroyuki. The script is being handled by Fukuda Yasushi, who has written for popular dramas such as "HERO" and "Galileo." Sawada Kensaku ("Saiyuki," "Hero Special") is directing.

Fukatsu Eri co-stars as Kimura's secretary, an ambitious woman aiming to reform the country. She and Kimura last appeared together in the 2002 drama series Sora Kara Furu Ichioku no Hoshi.

The drama starts shooting next month and will begin airing in April.

As much as I love Kimura's newly found seriousness about acting ever since Bushi no Ichibun, I long to see him in a romance drama again.
And it means ... Kimura is back to dark, short hair *sigh* I miss the long locks.

LOL yeah, I know.
But most of the time ppl who bash SMAP are young fans of the kouhei (younger) groups of JE. Like KAT-TUN, NewS etc. which happen to have cooking shows etc as well but of course everything is much cooler and better and so so sexy. Yeah right.

I just thought the other night that all those other bands' names came up while I was with you, and that I haven't got the slightest clue about them - and that I'm not even sure I want to. ;) Mind you, remember that scene in yanie's '18 Years Tribute' when Nakai tells on that one TV show how he cannot pee beside Goro? The guy in the frilly dark shirt who laughs and applauds - he is kinda cute, whoever he is. ;p

Oh-uh .. Kame from KAT-TUN ... I always call him the styled eyebrows of Doom. He is okayish ... I like him in his current dorama, though normally when he has styled his eyebrows they distract me from whatever he is doing on screen. SERIOUSLY!!
Kame & Yamapi fan vid. I like Yamapi better :)

[little-witch27.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's the EYEBROWS guy! I remember you referring to those! LOL

Mhm. I think I prefer Eyebrows. Though he gives off the impression of a terrible pain in the neck. Yamapi is so... young? I dunno. Too much of a baby for my taste. Oh well. More for you then. ;)

Young? Okay 24 is young ... but he is not a baby anymore as he proved in this month' An-An.

I beg to differ:

I always want to give Kame a sandwich or something bigger .. he is sooooo skinny.

Yummy pictures, but too young. ;) I think I know what it is - he looks too perfect. Keine Ecken und Kanten. I like some freakiness in a bloke. That's why I like looking at Kimura, though I'd probably go crazy if I had to live with him. Or with any Scorpio man, for that matter. *lol* Even with my first love, who's also a Scorpio - as much as I loved him, I think not having to live with him was what made it so good and so special.

I dunno why, but Kame reminds me of my younger brothers. I want to give him a spank. ;) Yet he intrigues me... oh God. I AM crazy! :o

[scottishlass.livejournal.com]

LOL :) Yeah true ... he is too smooth .. though you would love him as Akira in Nobuta wo Produce. He is the guy who gets high on soy milk :)
Kame is a strange guy ... though i have to admit I like him as boxer who falls in love with a nun (his character is funny in his silliness) but when he does serious stuff I don't like him very much, he is then too stiff ... AND he was one half of the worst JDorama kisses in the last 5 years.
And here is the only pic I have of Kame *lol*


As I said ... eyebrows of Doom.

Oh, he's THAT guy???!!! LOLOLOL

Niiiiiiiiice picture! Definitely intrigues me. I think he looks dirty. ;p

[little-witch27.livejournal.com]

Though where those eyebrows are trying to go with him... I do not know. And I do not dare guess. *lol*

[scottishlass.livejournal.com]

These eyebrows are distracting, I tell you. When I watched SAPURI, a jdrama with him as the male lead, I couldn't concentrate on the plot but was always wondering what his eyebrows would do next. :D

[little-witch27.livejournal.com]

ROTFLMAO

There's a whole world in those eyebrows! One should write stories about them! :D

[scottishlass.livejournal.com]

I think it is already done ... JE fangirls have strange fetishes ,-)

[little-witch27.livejournal.com]

Just as I feared. *snort* As for the strange fetishes: I did mention that I think I have the hots for Shingo Mama, did I? ;) That one bit where they watch Prince Goro's washing powder commercial and then the other girl gets up and you see Shingo Mama from the side looking her way, smiling... sooooooooo adorable! I really love him there. Her. It. Um. Yeah. :D
