His comeback!

So much of me attracted to Osaka men, I really adore Nishikido Ryo. But not too obsess so to speak. From his music to his dramas, I love them all. Ryo last acted in the movie Niini no koto wasurenaide back in 2009. A sad-ending brain-tumor fighting high schooler based on true story. Eversince, I was waiting for his new drama and in 2010 he cheered the entire fan with a comeback in the drama, JOKER.

As a heart-broken teen in 1 Litre of Tears (2005)
A charismatic young pilot in Attention Please! (2006)
Domestic-violent spouse in Last Friend (2008)
Spontaneous humorous reckless guy is Ryuusei no Kizuna (2008)
Overwhelmed by dilemma noble man with a devil hand in Orthros no Inu (2009)

His acting is never disappointing. In JOKER, Ryo acted as Kudo Kenji, Kanagawa Prefecture Police Department Identifications Unit (read: forensic team). As unprompted as always, his acting seemed so natural with appropriate facial expressions and precise message-conveying scripts.

A lil bit on the synopsis, this drama is about a mysterious underground organization called JOKER which is closely related to the ‘mystery disppearance’ of all unexecuted criminals. Said to be funded by retired police superiors but never actually been proved, a criminal reporter and a newly recruited police investigator teamed up to figure out what is JOKER about. Genre is crime and investigation.

Leftmost is the main actor Sakai Masato as Date Kazuyoshi

The young lady in the middle is Anne, playing the role of Miyagi Asuka as newly recruited police investigator. Where have you seen her before?

FYI she starred in Samurai High School as Nagasawa Ai back in 2009 along with Haruma Miura as the main cast.

Btw OST for JOKER is the song Scar by Rip Slyme. Catchy one by this hip-hop oriented Japanese group from Kanagawa, it has some sort of Spanish tuning in it.

To whom it may concern
- Unfortunately I didn’t watch Korean dramas
- Personally think Crows ZERO 2 is better too =)
