Nakama Yukie (30) and Dan Rei (39) are set to work together on a new winter drama.

The title of the show has not yet been made, but the story will focus on the complex and thrilling world of women.� Nakama will play the role of the mysterious and wicked woman, and she comes across a normal housewife, who is played by Dan.� From there, jealous, friendship, and compassion will be the main themes of the show.

The filming for the drama already started a little while ago and the two actresses quickly became friendly with each other. Nakama said that as soon as she read the script, she wanted to meet Dan right away. �Dan gives an atmosphere of motherliness, kind and warm�, Nakama said. �I�m playing a woman with a lot of different faces. I haven�t had any roles like this in the past but I�m enjoying it�, she added.

Dan is equally delighted to be working with Nakama. �I never imagined that I will be able to work with Nakama. Working with her is just pure fun. I�m enjoying work so much I have to be careful not to suffer heatstroke�, Dan said with a smile.� She keeps putting in hard work despite record high temperatures in Japan, so hopefully it all pays off.

The drama will be aired on FujiTV for the upcoming winter season 2011.
