The production press conference of TV Asahi's autumn 2013 drama "Doctor X ~ Gekai Daimon Michiko ~" was held on 2 October which was attended by cast members Yonekura Ryoko, Fujiki Naohito, Uchida Yuki, Kishibe Ittoku, Mita Yoshiko, Nishida Toshiyuki, Mizusawa Elena, Sasano Takashi, Endo Kenichi and Fueki Yuko as well as the scriptwriter Nakazono Miho. The drama which begins its run from 17 October at 9pm on Thursdays, features Yonekura as a freelance surgeon Daimon Michiko and is a sequel of last year's top rated drama with an average rating of 19.1% and 24.4% for its finale. Fujiki and Nishida join the cast for the first time in the sequel respectively as Kondo, a surgeon who has a strong interest in Michiko, and Hiruma, the director of the surgery department.
During the event, Nishida commented that when his drama SP "Inemuri Sensei" was shown on 15 September on TV Asahi, the ratings were not so good as it clashed with the summer season's ratings winner "Hanzawa Naoki". As such, he mentioned that it would be good if "Doctor X" can do much better than "Hanzawa Naoki" this season in order for him to "return the favour". With response to this, the scriptwriter Nakazono Miho expressed her wish to aim for double of Hanzawa's ratings.
