Tamura Masakazu & Yonekura Ryoko to star in 2-part Matsumoto Seicho drama SPs

Tamura Masakazu and Yonekura Ryoko will be the leads of a 2-part Matsumoto Seicho 20th death anniversary drama SP series which will be shown via TV Asahi on 15th and 16th December at 9pm.

Tamura who last appeared in a Matsumoto Seicho drama 2 years ago, stars in the first story titled "Juumanbun no ichi no guuzen" (The one in a hundred thousand coincidence) as a reporter who has been so absorbed in his work and raised his child alone after his wife's demise. However, the ironic thing is that he only realises his daughter's death one month after she died from a tragic traffic accident. When he sees a photo in the media of the accident which is said to be a one-in-a-hundred-thousand coincidence, he seeks out the truth for his daughter's sake. This story was first released as a novel in 1980 and made into a drama back in 1981 starring Takahashi Keiko. Co-stars in this SP include Nakatani Miki, Takashima Masanobu and Uchiyama Rina.

As for Yonekura, she plays a housekeeper who has no confidence in her looks despite being very pretty. As a result, she tries to conceal her beauty through various disguises and works as a housekeeper. She relishes in seeing the families who she works for suffer as a result of unfortunate happenings and is a curious onlooker about what happens in these families.
