Other Arashi news I forgot from before…
So as you know, Arashi is hosting 24hr TV this year.
There’s also an annual tanpatsu drama for 24hr TV, and it was announced a few days ago that the drama will be called Myu no Anyo, Papa ni Ageru. It will air on August 30 (first day of 24hr TV) on NTV. Jun will play a man who discovers he has CIDP, an illness that causes him to progressively lose functioning of his limbs, hence the title (I will give Papa Myu’s legs). His wife is played by Karina. The drama is based on the true story of Yamaguchi Hayato.
I’m excited for this! Although I’d rather have Nino, ’cause he hasn’t acted in a while (aside from that 1-minute scene in Maou). But it’s great that Jun is gonna play such a tragic role, I’m looking forward to his acting :] Prepare to cry, everyone~
