Kiritani Kenta in his first leading role in the drama "Y.O.U Yamabiko Ongaku Doukoukai"

Kiritani Kenta will be taking on his first leading role in the Kansai TV 55th anniversary commemorative drama "Y.O.U Yamabiko Ongaku Doukoukai" which is set to be shown in late November this yar. The filming began from 5 April in Miyazu City, Kyoto Prefecture when Kiritani shot the scene of him heading to the high school his character teaches in. The rest of the filming will be done in August. As Kiritani comes from Tenroku which is near Ogi-machi where Kansai TV's HQ is located, he feels that it is a big coincidence that his first leading role is in a Kansai TV drama. Kiritani plays a high school teacher who used to be an unsuccessful rock singer and gets assigned to teach at a high school. While guiding the school's band to take part in a music contest, he starts to understand and help his students with their problems. Co-stars of this drama are still being selected.
