The completion screening of FujiTV drama SP "Dakishimetai! Forever" was held on 10 September at Yokohama which was attended by the double leads Asano Atsuko and Asano Yuko as well as Iwaki Koichi. The drama SP is the first installment in 14 years for the "Dakishimetai" series. There was a talk show held at Sogo Yokohama where 700 people around the lead characters' age of 54 years old were gathered. When asked about the likelihood of doing another SP in 2020 to coincide with the Olympics in Tokyo, the leads will both be 60 years old by then but they expressed interest in doing it if there is such an opportunity. On the other hand, Iwaki jokingly said that he doesn't even know if he will still be alive by then (he will be around 70 years old in 2020).
"Dakishimetai!" started off as a drama series in 1988 and had three drama SPs in 1989, 1990 and 1999. The new installment will be shown via FujiTV on 1 October at 9pm.
