EXILE's new song, "Flower Song" (release date undecided), has been picked up as the theme song for Yonekura Ryoko's upcoming drama, '35-sai no Koukousei', which starts on April 13th.

In the drama, Yonekura will play a 35-year-old woman who enters a high school where she has to face the problems of present-day high school students.

The lyrics were written by�ATSUSHI, who worked on the song after hearing circumstances and problems that occur in school.�"For plants, winter is the period of 'shadow.' But once overcoming winter and welcoming spring, there will definitely be a period of 'sunlight' in order for sakura to be in full bloom. Even if you are having a real rough time now, there will certainly be a period when things will look a little brighter. That's the message I put into the song. I hope it becomes a support song for everyone who stands at a new start line."

Meanwhile, Yonekura commented, "It has a gentle melody that allows you to feel spring, and with EXILE-san's warm singing voice, it reminds you of the bittersweet memories of youth you experienced during high school."

Aside Yonekura, Mizobata Junpei, Katase Nana, Masu Takeshi, Yokoyama Megumi, Enoki Takaaki, and Watari Tetsuya will star in the drama.
