Seto Koji’s Role as Kaneshita Mutsuo
Recently, the drama announced the addition of beloved actor Seto Koji, who returns to Fuji TV’s Getsu9 lineup after a seven-year hiatus since his last role in “Kuragehime” in 2018. In “119 Emergency Call”, Seto portrays Kaneshita Mutsuo, a command officer and trainer for the main character, Kasuhara Yuki, played by Seino Nana. Kaneshita’s character adds depth to the narrative, providing guidance to Yuki while also grappling with his tumultuous past as a former firefighter.
The Dynamics of Kaneshita and Yuki
Kaneshita Mutsuo’s journey is influenced by an incident from two years ago that compelled him to leave his role as a firefighter. Although now stationed at the command center, he often exhibits a grumpy demeanor, reflecting the weight of his earlier experiences. However, he remains committed to his family, which includes pampering his elementary school son, showcasing a complex balance between personal and professional life. This dynamic promises to add tension and emotional depth to the show’s storyline.
