SMAP's Nakai Masahiro to star in new FujiTV drama SP "Shin Naniwa Kinyudo"

SMAP's Nakai Masahiro will be starring in the new FujiTV drama SP "Shin Naniwa Kinyudo" which is the first installment in 10 years and the 7th SP in the series which started in 1996. The SP which is based on the manga by Aoki Yuji and serialised in the men's magazine "Morning", is due to be shown early next year and filming started on 12 October in Osaka.

Nakai plays the role of Haibara who works in a consumer finance company "Teigoku Kinyu" and the story depicts his interactions with the people who come to borrow money from his company. When asked about his reason for deciding to take on the offer to reprise his role, Nakai said that it was simply because he and the staff wanted to do it so it wasn't for reasons such as viewer demand.
