Actress Momoko Fukuchi's NHK nighttime drama "Radio Star" (NHK General, Monday-Thursday 10:45 PM) will enter its fourth week starting April 20th.
"Radio Star" is a nonstop entertainment drama set in Noto, depicting how ordinary citizens become stars. The cast includes Masahiro Kohmoto, Kiyohiko Shibukawa, Shoma Kai, Kaito Oyagi, Shunsuke Kazama Kazama, Tsutomu Tamura, Takako Tokiwa Tokiwa, and Manami Ono from the idol group "Hinatazaka46". The theme song is "Fune Ippai no Sachi wo" (A Boat Full of Happiness), written and composed by Yumi Matsutoya and sung by MISIA.
In the fourth week, the radio star faces his greatest challenge yet.
A forecast of heavy rain was issued for Suzuno Town. Kanade (Fukuchi) and others broadcast an emergency segment, but they couldn't accurately convey the rapidly changing situation. In the end, the rain stopped without causing any major damage, but they realized that there were many challenges ahead. First, with the aim of increasing awareness, they decided to try broadcasting from outside the studio. They set up a broadcast booth at the town's sports day and broadcast live.
However, one of the participants suddenly became ill and collapsed. A still image of the scene was also released.
