NHK's taiga drama, which will be broadcast next year, was decided to be "To the Shining Kimi," which depicts the life of Murasaki Shikibu, who wrote "The Tale of Genji" during the Heian period.

The lead is Yuriko Yoshitaka.

"To the Shining Kimi" depicts the life of Murasaki Shikibu, who is known as the author of "The Tale of Genji", set in the Heian period when aristocratic culture flourished.



The lead role is Yuriko Yoshitaka, who played the heroine in the serial TV novel "Hanako to Anne", and a gorgeous story that incorporates the relationship with the highest authority, Fujiwara no Michinaga, and her passion for writing will be spun. ..

The script will be written by Shizuka Oishi, who has been highly acclaimed for "Futarikko" and "Second Virgin".



This is the second time I have written a script for a taiga drama since "Komyō ga Tsuji" in 2006.



The NHK Taiga drama "Shining Kimi e" is scheduled to be broadcast from January 2024.
