Koike Eiko starring in CS FujiTV drama "TOKUNOSHIMA Airport"


Koike Eiko will be starring in the CS FujiTV drama "TOKUNOSHIMA Airport" which consists of four 15-minute episodes that will begin its run from 14 October. This drama is a spin-off of Fukada Kyoko's FujiTV autumn drama "TOKYO Airport ~ Tokyo Kuukou Kansei Hoanbu" and is a stark contrast from the setting in the latter where there are 500 flights per day at Haneda Airport. In this spin-off drama, Koike plays an air traffic controller at a small airport in Tokunoshima, an island near Kagoshima Prefecture where there are only 4 flights per day. As such, the drama focuses on how the air traffic controllers there battle with boredom rather than the busy lives led by their Tokyo counterparts.
