I want to pass on the thoughts and messages of the creator to the recipients. I am doing all the works with the hope that I can serve as a bridge between the two parties.
I believe an actor's job is to deliver the intention and essence of the work as it is. However, I feel the current trend is "playing it safe". Even in dramas, there is a principle that the direction of the work is influenced by the comments on the Internet.
I want my work to be soothing and supportive, so I want it to be delivered without any deviation from the original. If it takes a different form by neglecting its essence, the meaning of my participation will be lost.
For that reason, it would be great if TV dramas could be made in a format that allows the entire production to be shot in advance. I am glad that this is the first time I've been able to do this.
Since it's a comedy, I wanted to balance with my co-stars to make the character seem funny even tho he is very serious and desperate. It was a luxury that I was allowed to play the lead role. I was able to act head-on with the perfect balance of seriousness and comicality.
I feel Japan's entertainment industry is supported largely by popularity/ favourability tho I don't think it's right to say whatever you want by imitating overseas.
Each country has its own religion, culture and character. But, it'd be nice if there're a little bit changes in Japan.
Recently, I have been reminded of how difficult it is to express in words. The emotions "joy, anger, sorrow, and pleasure" are diverse. I would like to use images to express the nuances that cannot be conveyed in words. I think this is one of the powers of entertainment.
