Kuroki Meisa to act as a thief in TBS spring 2013 drama "TAKE FIVE ~ Oretachi wa Ai wo Nusumeruka ~ "

Kuroki Meisa will be appearing in her first private network drama since she gave birth to her first daughter in September last year. She will play a thief in the TBS spring 2013 drama "TAKE FIVE ~ Oretachi wa Ai wo Nusumeruka ~" where she will take up the challenge of hardcore action scenes while dressed in black leather suits. Kuroki commented jokingly that if she had to be a thief while dressed in such suits, it should be quite attention-grabbing but given that the setting of her character is someone who returns to Japan from the United States, she can understand why she had to be dressed in such a manner. Kuroki's character is the leader of a rival theft group who competes against Karasawa Toshiaki's group and she will appear from the 5th episode onwards (17 May). As for why Kuroki was chosen for the role, the producer Iyoda Hidenori said that he had last worked with Kuroki in 2010's "Shinzanmono" and they had talked then about how he would put her in a role which require action scenes.
