Kabashima LightComments
I'm Hikari Kabashima, who plays Higashi Mika.
After hearing about the role, I read the original work, and not only was the story exciting, but the characters were also very unique and exciting to read. Mika is cunning and popular, and everyone around her helps her out when she's in trouble, but I think the environment she was born and raised in as the daughter of a company president has a big influence on her inner self. She lives a life that is the polar opposite of Mao's, so I'm trying to bring that out and portray Mika's cunningness in a natural way, so I'm trying my best to film it while experimenting in my own way. I hope many people will enjoy watching it.
Toudou HinataComments
I was so excited to be a regular in my first drama series that I was smiling from ear to ear. When I heard that I would be playing a villain role, which was something I had always wanted to play, I was so excited that I started dancing on the spot.
However, when I actually read the script, it was the first time I'd read a book that I couldn't imagine myself doing, and it was really difficult to understand the morals of the story, such as, "Kota is doing something really bad here, but what are his feelings at the time?" and "Why does he do this?"
It's a very warm environment, and I'm trying my best to listen to what my seniors have to say and take various opinions into consideration.
I hope you enjoy watching the trashy side of Takada Kota, who played the role with all his heart.
Haruka Kudocomment
As I was reading the script, my face lit up and I could feel myself grinning.
The feeling of "Kyuun!" is irresistible.
I genuinely want to support the love story of these two people, who are by no means straightforward in their married life.
Yuka and I are the same.
Let's cheer them on together!!!
Watanabe DaiComments
It's the smaller of the Smile Food Sales Department twin towers (lol)
It's going to be a full throttle story right from the beginning, and I hope everyone enjoys it.
The love story between Mao and Hajime, and the polar opposite of Kota's indifference, are must-sees.
As one of the older members of the cast, and as Hajime's ○○, I hope to keep a warm eye on him both in real life and in the drama.
We hope you'll look forward to this adult, deep drama that will blow away the cold winter!
Maho NonamiComments
"Mysterious woman"... so lol,
I can't wait for the day filming starts!
It's all new to me, and they only appear in the middle of the story, so
In a way, it destroyed the atmosphere that everyone had created,
I hope to bring a breath of fresh air to viewers, making them feel uneasy.
When will its true identity be revealed?
Please look forward to it!

Night Comment
I am very honored and happy to be in charge of the theme song for the drama DEEP "Sudden Marriage".
In each of our daily lives, there are moments when we spend different nights depending on the angle of our heart.
The theme song "Lonely Night" was written because I wanted to create a song that would embrace and comfort those nights when you feel lonely and isolated.
I'm really looking forward to watching Mao and Hajime's love story until the end as a viewer, and to seeing how the song will affect the drama when combined with it. I hope it will become a song that is loved along with the drama.
