Arashi’s Kazunari Ninomiya is starring in a TBS drama special called “DOOR TO DOOR.” This is the third and last in the network’s “kandou drama” series, which includes last year’s “Marathon” and 2006’s “Sukoshi wa, Ongaeshi ga Dekita Kana.” Ninomiya also starred in those two specials.
These dramas are based on true stories about young men overcoming illnesses. “DOOR TO DOOR” is inspired by Bill Porter, an American door-to-door salesman who achieved the highest sales for his company despite suffering from cerebral palsy. In the U.S., Porter’s story became a successful book, and it was turned into an Emmy-nominated made-for-TV movie on the TNT network in 2002.
TBS’s version of “DOOR TO DOOR” is set in Japan, with Ninomiya playing the lead as a man named Hideo Kurasawa. His supporting cast includes Kanako Higuchi as his mother and Rosa Kato as a co-worker. Filming started on Sunday. TBS will air the drama on March 29 at 9:00pm.

Really excited!! Nino is such as talented actor, he will definitely do well in this drama.
On a side note, there hasn’t been news regarding Jun-kun starring in any drama or movies, miss him a bunch on the small screen. Hopefully, there will be something soon.
UPDATE: The English subs for this special has been completed by the awesome STORMY Team. Thank you soooo much for your hardwork!
