Tsuchiya Taiho decisively cut her hair to create the image of the new drama

On the 8th, NHK TV held a starring conference in Tokyo that will be broadcast next spring morning drama "Xi" (broadcast every Monday to Saturday at 8:00 a.m.), and the heroine Tsuchiya Taifeng (19), who cut her hair nearly 40 centimeters to create the character image in the play, attended the conference.

Tsuchiya Taiho said that the moment she cut her hair, she felt as if she had become the character "Xi" in the play. Tsuchiya continued energetically: "In the play, 'Xi' meets various characters and then grows. I want to grow up like Xi through this 1 year. According to the firm to which Tsuchiya Taiho belongs, Tsuchiya Taiho cut her hair so short for the first time since her debut at the age of 12.

NHK producers said that because the heroine of this morning drama is a woman who grew up in Noborishima, Ishikawa Prefecture, helped take care of her family since she was a child, and is very mobile, the shorter hairstyle is more in line with the character image, and Tsuchiya Taiho also said that she is very willing to cut her hair short.

At the press conference, Tsuchiya Taiho said: "Last time (the heroine conference) I was in a mood of waiting for the results to be announced, and today I am like attending the opening ceremony, I will study hard!" "The heroine Kei's father will be played by Hiroshi Oizumi, and Kei's mother and brother will be played by Takako Tokiwa and Noriyuki Hayama respectively." The heroine Xi likes her family very much, which is very similar to mine, and hopes that we (referring to the family members in the play) can create a warm family. Takako Tokiwa is very cute, but I am more like the person who plays the mother. Tsuchiya Taiho said with a smile.

Ozumi also joked: "At first, I thought I was playing the object of the heroine, but it turned out to be playing my father... The script is very interesting, and I want to watch a TV series more than I would like to star. Now I want to 'downgrade' to become an audience member to watch the TV series! ”

In addition to Yuki Tanaka and Hiroko Tanaka, who play the heroine Kei's grandparents, the co-actors also include Hidesuke Shinoi, Saharu Suzuki, Atsuo Nakamura, Kento Yamazaki, Tomika Shimizu, Mune Mai, Shoko Nakagawa, Takeya Tsukachi, and Katsuko Ishimatsu.

The storyline of the morning drama "Xi" revolves around the growth of the heroine Tsumura Yoshi after her father fled to Ishikawa Prefecture with her family overnight to Noboru Island on the eve of bankruptcy. Xi regards his father, who only pursues his dreams, as a negative teaching material, and takes "living in a down-to-earth manner" as his life creed. After graduating from high school, Xi went to work in the municipal government, but he was still passionate about making dim sum, and eventually realized his dream of becoming a dim sum maker.
