Actor Koizumi Kotaro (35) attended the production press conference for his upcoming TBS drama "Petero no Souretsu ("The Funeral Procession of Peter")" - July 7, 8:00pm, thereafter Mondays 7:00pm. 

Speaking about the theme of "lies" with regards to the drama, Koizumi admitted that he used to lie about himself, "When I was in my late teens to early 20s, I didn't want people to know about my father (Koizumi Junichiro, former Prime Minister of Japan), so I would go on group dates and say that 'I am not related to Koizumi Junichiro'" in order to enjoy his time with the ladies." 

Actresses Hasegawa Kyoko (35) and Kuninaka Ryoko (35) and more will also join the cast.
