The season of &#8220;24-Hour TV&#8221; (Nippon Television Network Corporation) has come again this year. This year, the program will be broadcast from August 27 to 28. This year, the YouTube unit &#8220;Janino-channel&#8221; led by Kazuya Ninomiya (39) of &#8220;Arashi&#8221; will be the main personality, which has already become a hot topic. Speaking of &#8220;Janino-channel,&#8221; Yuichi Nakamaru (38) of &#8220;KAT-TUN,&#8221; Ryosuke Yamada (29) of &#8220;Hey! Say! JUMP,&#8221; Fuma Kikuchi (27) of &#8220;Sexy Zone,&#8221; and others whom he nominated along with Ninomiya began broadcasting last April, and already has over 3.3 million registered users.

The 24-hour TV program will feature a variety of programs, but one of the main attractions is a &#8220;special drama.
 The special drama is one of the mainstays of 24-Hour TV, along with the charity marathon. In the past, &#8220;Little Driver: The Last Dream&#8221; in 2005, in which Yusho Nakajima, who was still a junior at the time, appeared, and &#8220;The Man Who Made the Times: The Story of Aku Yu,&#8221; starring Kazuya Kamenashi, in 2005, were broadcast and became popular. The lead role is often played by one of the main personalities. Since the performance of a drama affects the overall ratings of the program, it is very important who plays the lead role. Viewers are talking about such questions as, &#8220;Isn&#8217;t it Yamada Ryosuke, who has experience appearing in a 24-hour TV drama?&#8221; and &#8220;Is it Nakamaru Yuichi, who has no theatrical image, for the sake of surprise?
(Sports newspaper reporter). This year&#8217;s 24-Hour TV drama will star Ninomiya, the magazine has learned in an interview. A source in the entertainment industry said, &#8220;Ninomiya will play the lead role in this year&#8217;s 24-hour TV drama.
A source in the entertainment industry told us, &#8221; Mr. Ninomiya is the only member of &#8216;Arashi &#8216; who has starred in a drama series since he was a member of Johnny&#8217;s Jr. He has also won the Best Actor Award at the Japan Academy Prize. He may not be a surprise, but his casting is a &#8220;steel plate&#8221; casting.

In addition, there is another surprising twist in this original drama. It is directed by comedian Gekidan Hitori (45). Gekidan Hitori is not only a comedian, but also a film director, writer, and actor.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 Gekidan Hitori is a top-class director when it comes to nostalgic humanistic dramas. His &#8220;Asakusa Kid&#8221; (Netflix) and his first film &#8220;Bolt from the Sky,&#8221; both of which were released this year, were successful at the box office in the genre in which he excels. The drama for this year&#8217;s 24-hour TV program will also be a humanistic drama, which is Gekidan Hitori&#8217;s forte. He and Ninomiya have been seen together in variety shows such as &#8220;Nino-san&#8221; (NTV), but this is his first time as an actor. The original drama was originally a popular annual segment, but we brought these two actors as the lead actor and director. Unfortunately, &#8220;24 Hour TV&#8221; was called a &#8220;dud&#8221; last year, but this year, Nippon TV is seriously trying to revive it.
We asked NTV about starring in and directing this original drama, but did not receive a response by the deadline.
Ninomiya, who released a cover album as a solo artist in June, and Gekidan Hitoshi, who will release his first full-length novel in 12 years in late August, are both in great form. The chemistry created by Johnny&#8217;s&#8217;s best acting idol and one of the most talented comedians in the world may save the earth.
