Fuji TV has announced that they'll be airing a special drama called "Akujotachi no Mes", starring the bewitching Nakama Yukie as a cold-blooded surgeon. Seto Asaka, the wife of V6's Inohara Yoshihiko, will also be starring in her first role since giving birth to a baby boy in March 2010.

"Akujotachi no Mes" is based on a novel called, "Incident... Akujotachi no Mes" by author Hata Takehiko. It's set in a large hospital, with Nakama playing as one of the best neurosurgeons in Japan. She's a wicked woman who cares more about her status in society than anything else, and isn't afraid of prioritizing patients of high status above normal patients. Due to such decisions, she already caused the death of a female high school student by prioritizing the surgery of a mainstay in the financial world; she's also responsible for the death of a male high school student, whose blood transfusion got redirected to the Prime Minister.

Seto plays the mother of the said male high school student, who completely condemns the surgeon for the death of her son. She's now demanding justice and tries to find evidence of the surgeon's questionable decisions by all means necessary. Actress Nakahara Towako makes an appearance as a coordinator who stands between the doctors and the patients, and tries to find the most appropriate medical treatment for the individual cases.

All three characters are said to be very persistent women, and it will be the viewer's task to decide which one of them is the most wicked in the story. b

Nakama commented, "I was coached by medical specialists for the surgery scenes. I think it turned into a very fast-paced and thrilling medical drama."

Seto commented, "It was a difficult role, but it made me grow further as an actress."

The special drama "Akujotachi no Mes" is supposed to air on a Friday evening in December, but an exact date has yet to be announced.
