The dorama is called "Sotsu-Uta" and the interesting thing is that it is actually based on songs (uta) about graduation (sotsugyo) and departure into a new part of your life like Yuming’s "Sotsugyo Shashin" or EXILE’s "Michi". The 4 starring actresses for the 4 episodes are going to be Shida Mirai (16), Kuninaka Ryoko (30), Kitano Kie (18) and Nagasawa Masami (22).
The first episode stars Shida and is inspired by Kiroro’s song "Best Friend". It’s a story that nicely portrays the pure life of two senior high school students and how they approach the inevitable farewell. Fellow actress Kutsuna Shiori (17) is going to play her best friend.
Kuninaka stars in the 2nd night and brings EXILE’s "Michi" to life. She is going to play a young woman who is about to get married and her relationship with her stubborn yet caring father (Hirata Mitsuru).
Sukima Switch beautiful song "Kanade" from 2004 is going to tone the story for the 3rd episode. A university student more worried about her dreams and love rather than finding a job, that’s the girl Kitano is going to portray the best she can.
Finally there is Nagasawa’s role who actually makes an appearance as a radio personality in all of the episode mentioned just now. Though she is going to be the heroine in the final episode. Her story will be based on Matsutoya Yumi’s graduation song "Sotsugyo Shashin" and portray the life of a young woman moving to Tokyo and trying to make a living there.
