Koki Tanaka chosen for first renzoku lead

Koki Tanaka of popular group KAT-TUN has been chosen for his first lead role in a drama series. “Tokkyu Tanaka 3 Go” will air in the spring on TBS, though a specific time slot has not yet been announced.

Tanaka will play a college student named Ichiro Tanaka, nicknamed “Tetsu” because he is a railfan (one who is interested in railroads). Tanaka admits that he was worried when he first heard about the story, but changed his mind after reading the script.

The series will be produced by Aki Isoyama and written by Hiroshi Hashimoto. The drama is described as an original love comedy.
