[Discussion] Kami no Shizuku (Winter 09) Kamenashi Kazuya

It's a bit early I know pinch

but I wanna start it from now!!

Next season, NTV is airing a live-action drama based on
Tadashi Agi's popular wine-themed manga "Kami no Shizuku."
The drama series will star KAT-TUN's Kazuya Kamenashi in his first salaryman role.

The original manga is currently running in Kodansha's Weekly Morning magazine. The story revolves around
a young man whose father, a world-famous wine critic, suddenly dies. In order to take over his father's vast wine collection,
he must face off against his adopted brother in a contest to find specific wines, even though he originally has no knowledge of wines.

"Kami no Shizuku" will run in NTV's Tuesday 10:00pm time slot, starting in January.

Wine and a spark of mystery... should be interesting... for once it will not be a love story? Or so I hope. I am bad at keeping my interest in romance drama... but obviously... this one will be in my watch list.
Can't wait for the rest of the casts to be announced. ~ Big Smile
