TOKIO's Matsuoka Masahiro attended the premiere viewing of his new TBS drama "Dousousei ~ Hito wa, Sando, Koi wo suru ~" based on the manga of the same title by Saimon Fumi. 

It is a pure love story in which four middle school classmates, now in their forties, meets again after 25 years apart. It is Matsuoka's first romantic drama and he commented, "I am a little embarrassed, but it is the kind of love story I had enjoyed watching myself so I hope you will enjoy it too." 

Matsuoka also shared an episode from filming the drama. When he had a cast party with only the other three leads Iura Arata, Inamori Izumi and Itaya Yuka, the four of them went to an izakaya in Shinjuku. He said, "The most interesting thing was that the script is really amazing. During our conversation, we were naturally saying the same lines as what were written in the script."
