WonBinHoLiC 20107 cr points Send Message: 29 / F / UAE Offline	Permalink Reply Quote Posted 8/20/12, edited 10/14/12 Profile: Doctor X ~ Gekai Daimon Michiko Date: From 9.00 p.m., Thursdays, from 18th October 2012 Station: TV Asahi Synopsis: 36-year-old Daimon Michiko (Yonekura Ryoko) is a sexy freelance surgeon. Not affiliated to a university hospital’s medical department, she moves around to various hospitals while attached to the dodgy ‘Doctors’ Agency’. She observes working hours strictly, does not accept chores where a medical license is not needed, and is also uninterested in the power struggles characteristic of hospitals. Her private life and work experience is shrouded in mystery, her fees several orders of magnitude higher but she is a battle-hardened first-rate surgeon with the instincts of a genius. While there are ugly rumours that she left the medical community because of money problems and medical malpractice, no one knows the person she really is. Cast: Yonekura Ryoko Tanaka Kei Uchida Yuki Katsumura Masanobu Suzuki Kosuke Shubuki Jun Hayashi Tantan Yamamoto Mizuki Kishibe Ittoku Muroi Shigeru Danta Yasunori Ito Shiro Official Website: www.tv-asahi.co.jp/doctor-x Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide Yonekura Ryoko to play a sexy surgeon in new drama ‘Doctor X ~Gekai Daimon Michiko~’ On August 21st, it was announced that actress Yonekura Ryoko will be starring in the upcoming TV Asahi fall drama titled ‘Doctor X ~Gekai Daimon Michiko~‘. In the drama, she will be the playing the role of ‘Daimon Michiko’, who is a freelance surgeon unrestricted by any medical organization and possesses brilliant perception with the skills of a veteran doctor. It’s Yonekura’s first role as a doctor, but similar to many of the previous professions she portrayed in dramas and movies, she does it with a lot of style and sex appeal. By mixing short pants that expose her long legs and the white robe of a doctor, she’s embodying a unique – almost immoral – kind of doctor who’s fighting her way through life as a lone wolf. She expressed, “Unlike all the women I’ve played (on this network) before, she isn’t suffering from a trauma or some kind of haunting shadow. Maybe I can actually try to show you a more sexy and mature Yonekura Ryoko this time.” ‘Daimon Michiko’ is a 37-year-old surgeon and is part of a questionable ‘doctor placement service’ that has her wander from hospital to another. She holds a scrupulous compliance when it comes to her working hours, never does any unnecessary chores that don’t require a medical license, and couldn’t care less about the power struggles within the hospitals. Nobody knows how she acquired such a top-level skill that allows her to claim exorbitant sums as reward, but her private life is an even greater mystery to everyone around her. There are rumors that she once had to leave the medical world due to money problems and a medical error, but nobody knows anything for sure… Yonekura explained the underlying theme of the drama as follows, “The society of Japanese office workers has somehow become something like ‘the aesthetics of working overtime’.” She continued, “Many people think to themselves, ‘I’m devoting my whole life to my company whether I want it or not’. It would be great if those people could take a look at Daimon’s way of life and feel a little bit better.” The script for will be written by Nakazono Miho, who already was responsible for another Yonekura drama titled ‘Nasake no Onna‘ (TV Asahi). TV Asahi is going to air ‘Doctor X ~Gekai Daimon Michiko~’ every Thursday at 9:00 pm starting sometime in October.

This will be Superfly’s 2nd consecutive season to sing a theme song for a drama. She previously sang the theme song for TBS‘ summer drama series, ‘Summer Rescue ~Tenku no Shinryojo~‘. Superfly commented on “Force” saying, “The power that reveals your true self, the power of love, the power of belief, the power to show your weaknesses… Like the various powers that overflow from the bottom of our hearts, it’s a powerful song. I’m really looking forward to how the drama’s visuals and song will synchronize.“ As her first time teaming up with Superfly, Yonekura seemed very pleased with the theme song. “As the song’s title suggests, the song is filled with powerful meaning, and I believe it’s a song that will give you motivation. Like the song’s image, I would like to do my best to become a strong doctor,” she expressed. ‘Doctor X ~Gekai Daimon Michiko~’ will air every Thursdays at 9:00 pm starting sometime in October.

WonBinHoLiC 20107 cr points Send Message: 29 / F / UAE Offline	Permalink Reply Quote Posted 10/20/12 'Doctor X' first ep reaches 18.6% rating as Yonekura enjoys first public bathhouse experience. Actress Ryoko Yonekura had her first public bathhouse experience while filming TV Asahi’s new drama “Doctor X ~Gekai Daimon Michiko~,” which airs Thursday night from 9 p.m. The drama revolves around the unusual lifestyle of a charismatic freelance surgeon, Michiko Daimon, played by Yonekura, who works at multiple hospitals. Michiko is not your average doctor, oozing sex appeal and wearing miniskirts under her white coat. Under a special contract, which allows Michiko to leave her work at 5 p.m., she enjoys her “after 5” life by dancing at clubs, playing Mahjong, and going to hot springs and public bathhouses. During filming, Yonekura, 37, visited a public bathhouse in Tokyo for the first time in her life. She said she enjoyed soaking in the bath against a huge wall painting of Mount Fuji, TV Asahi reported. When it comes to Yonekura’s own “after 5” life, she said she is not unlike her character. “I do love going out and drinking sake, but I go to the gym to keep in shape. I also do exercises while listening to the radio.”
