Oji good evening.
Hows Shinsengumi?
Although Oji has done quite a number of dramas, this is your first taiga drama. 
Are there any differences between normal dramas and taiga drama?
It must be tough that you have to wear traditional clothing and say dialogues different from present for one year.
But I�m looking forward to Shinsengumi!
Take care and ganbare oji!!

Shingo:

Thank you.
Ey�Shinsengumi��my first taiga!
I have never watch taiga dramas.
Ey�.but I think it�s something really great.
That�s why I�m doing it.
Coz there is migata san.
I love migata san.
Since migata san asked me I wouldn�t withdraw.

The shooting has begun for 1 to 2 months.
Though it is better not to withdraw from it, it is really a very tough drama. (laugh)
It�s beyond my imagination when it comes to how it would be like for 1 year ne.
Yup.

If it�s a normal drama, after 1 to 2 months of shooting, it would be already on air people would already be watching it right?
After 3 months the drama will be over right?
The shooting lasts for about 3 months too.

By now I would have received half the number of scripts for the drama. 
But for taiga I have only less than 1/10 of it.
For normal drama with 10 to 11 episodes it takes around 3 months.
Taiga has around 50 episodes ne.
50 hours desuyo.
This is not easy.

The clothing is different too.
Dialogues are different
I have to wear a wig from 7am to 3am.
I can�t take it off.
If I want to sleep I have to sleep on my side.
Or else I would spoil the wig.
I want to work hard.
Please watch it.
