On August 15th, Arashi�s Sakurai Sho (29) attended a pre-screening for his new movie, �Kamisama no Karute� and invited 130 nurses as special guests. At this event, he also talked to Nohara Shigeaki (99), the board chairman of St. Luke�s International Hospital, a general hospital located in Tokyo.

Sakurai, who played a doctor in this movie, stated, �I have come to understand that there is a deep bond between the doctor and the patient.� Responding to Sakurai's insight, Nohara said, �Your acting was splendid,� and gave his stamp of approval.

Actress Mori Mitsuko, who is an acquaintance of both Sakurai and Nohara's, gave sunflowers as a surprise present. In the language of flowers, a sunflower carries the meaning of �getting along�.

Furthermore, it was announced that on September 9th at 6:55 PM, NHK will broadcast a special program called, �Sakurai Sho no 'Ima Soko ni Iru Hitobito' �Inochi no Genba'"(The People Who are Here Now �The Scene of Life�), which will show Sakurai's close report on the medical scene.
