<p><strong> Wait, wait, wait!</strong></p>
<p>At the end of August, at 9:00 in the morning on the banks of the Tama River. Actress Rio Uchida (30) was being pulled along by a large white dog in school uniform, Yet Uchida was still laughing and running along the riverbank with it.</p>

<p>This was actually a location shooting for the drama &#8220;Bicycle Shop Takahashi-kun&#8221; (TV Tokyo), which will be broadcast from November. With the lingering summer heat still lingering, Uchida cooled his face with an ice pack and used a handheld fan for the location shooting.</p>
<p>Uchida has appeared in a number of films, but it was a late-night drama that caught his attention. Her breakthrough role was playing a sex-dependent girl in &#8220;I&#8217;ll Do It Right in My Next Life&#8221; (TV Tokyo), and she will appear in &#8220;Dad, I&#8217;m Marrying This Person! (BS Shochiku Tokyu),&#8221; which will start airing in October, in which she plays a girl who brings a different marriage partner each time.</p>
<p><strong> (BS Shochiku Tokyu), which will start airing in October. &#8220;In these works, I think that the sense of being a complicated character matched well with Uchida&#8217;s natural sex appeal. She has played many &#8220;props&#8221; roles in the past, but it will be interesting to see her take on more naturalistic roles. In fact, that may be where her real charm lies,&#8221; says columnist Takahiko Kageyama.</strong></p>

<p>Bicycle Shop Man&#8217;s Takahashi-kun&#8221; is a shy office worker, played by Uchida, and a young yankee, played by Suzuki Nobuyuki (29), in a deep but frustrating love story. You may be able to see a slightly different side to her.</p>
