Nao Matsushita shows her white teeth…found on location for the drama series in which she starred in the January season! The happy smile she showed right after her blank expression.

My bench coat is warm!

Nao Matsushita, 40, is wearing a bench coat backwards and forwards on a windy bridge with a big smile on her face.

On this day in mid-December, filming was underway for the January 2014 drama series “Husband, No Mistake” (Kantele/Fuji TV) on a bridge over a river in Chiba City. As more than 50 extras playing passersby gathered, the crew said, “Yo, yo! Start! they all came and went on the bridge at once. Among them, Matsushita was the only one standing still on the bridge.

Inspired by an actual case of mistaken identity, Sachiko Okazaki wrote the script for this original drama. The main character, Seiko Asahi, played by Matsushita, mistakenly believes that the body found in the river is her husband, and receives the insurance money.

The drama begins one year later when her supposedly dead husband, Kazuki Asahi, played by Akira Yasuda (52), returns home. The decision he makes for the happiness of his children undermines the family’s life, creating a suspense filled with the beauty and ugliness of the human heart,” said a TV magazine writer.

Let’s return to the beginning of the story. In the shooting scene, many people were walking on the bridge from the front to the back of the camera, probably during the morning rush hour. After a while, Matsushita, wearing a bright red sweater and gray jacket, walked from the back. At 174 cm tall and with a model’s figure, Matsushita really stood out from a distance. When he reached the center of the bridge, he stood there with a vacant expression on his face.

When the cut was called, a female staff member ran up to Matsushita. She put her bench coat on Matsushita and gave him a big smile, as if to say, “It’s so warm! From then on, Matsushita chatted and laughed with the female staff surrounding her until she was ready for the next shoot, and the atmosphere seemed quite good.

About playing Seiko, Matsushita said,

When I received the script, I thought it would be really interesting to read! I thought it was really interesting to read! I wanted to know more and more about the story, but the more I learned, the more I found myself in a difficult situation… I found the change in the main character very interesting, and the changes in the people around her also made me really get into the story. I was determined to act in a way that would cherish this “interesting” feeling,” he said on the program’s official website.

I was determined to play the role with this “interesting” feeling in mind,” he said on the program’s official website.

In recent years, viewers have been eagerly anticipating this drama, which is a so-called “study-type drama” in which viewers solve a number of mysteries together with themselves. What kind of performance will Matsushita give that will surprise the viewers? We can’t wait to see what she has in store for us.
