Q: Please tell us about the drama role Ihara HarukaA: In fact, I actually have a sister, but because I wanted to have a brother long time ago, so I'm looking forward to be surrounded by many brothers and sisters to interpret the role this time. I play as Haruka, a lady who is the eldest daughter of Ihara, is surrounded by free siblings, and always thinking [I have to be steady!] . So, I thought ... wanna to be a lady who is steady through this drama
Q: What things are needed to take note when playing this role?She's a girl who has difficulty to move about, must not forget this part when interpret the role ... In short,because there is chaotic fighting scenes within the siblings, so must be very careful in these scenes and able to do my best to interpret it.
Q: Please told us your impressions on the other actor/actressA: Were performing together with Yamashita-san and Chinen-san in the music programme previously, at that time the impression is very strong, so feel a bit unbelievable that we play as siblings,but is very happy for having a handsome brother and cute younger brother. Eikura-san has a nice body figure.When standing beside Yamashita-san and Eikura-san, I feel like I became shorter, so feel that [It's great to look mature~](laugh).Because it's a very short time from the first meet up, hoping that can have more chatting with them during the filming, it's good if can become more closer
Q: Is there any leisure time in the shooting scene?Because I am very shy, thinking "What to do?"... But, seems that Yamashita-san has open his heart to us,so next I will open mine too .( * It was mentioned in the Yamapi's interview)As brothers and sisters,they will have parts that are similiar to each other. It's good if able to find that similiar parts during the filming.
Q: The drama name is "Saikou no Jinsei no Owarikata", What will be your best way to end you life?I think that human beings cannot survive alone. Because there are many important people, who are supporting me are beside me, I think you cannot forget the gratefulness of those. And some more is ... to eat delicious food (laugh).I always thought so, because never know when and what we will become, so I want to eat delicious food through my life (laugh)
