Takahashi Katsunori to join "Iryu 4 ~ Team Medical Dragon ~" as new cast member

Takahashi Katsunori will be joining the cast of FujiTV Winter 2014 drama "Iryu 4 ~ Team Medical Dragon ~" which begins its run from January 2014 in the Thursdays 10pm timeslot. The drama which features Sakaguchi Kenji as the lead Asada Ryutaro, describes the reunion of Team Dragon as they are faced with the task of creating the ideal hospital. Takahashi will play the role of Okamura, a consultant who has been involved in many hospital restructuring projects in the United States and returns to Japan to scout the members from Team Dragon to go to India to provide high-level medical treatment there. Okamura has a lot of medical knowledge and his past is shrouded in secrecy.

Takahashi described that the biggest hurdle for him was the amount of medical terms he had to say in his lines and there was little possibility for him to avoid these terms even though he would have wanted not to memorise them if he had the choice.
