NURSEMAN

The suprise hit of this drama season starring TOKIO drummer, Matsuoka Masahiro, Morning Musume's Abe Natsumi, former SPEED member Uehara Takako and even the prime minister's popular son.

The story is about Jiro Yutaka (Matsuoka) who makes a goal to become a nurse but unfortunately the obstacle he faces are from women who don't believe men should be nurses. The hospital he works in is known to have strong female leadership and for Jiro Yutaka, his female peers look to him as incompetent.

[NTV Synopsis]: The world of nursing has been the redoubt of women since time immemorial. Men were the doctors and women the nurses. That changed as more and more women broke through the glass ceiling to become doctors themselves, but women still control the nursing profession - until now! Newly graduated from nursing school, Yujiro Takasawa and Shinta Yamaoka are eager, ready, willing and able to pursue their life-long dreams as male nurses. Not so fast. At their new posting at Shirayuri Memorial Hospital, male nurses Yujiro and Shinta go head to head against some seriously entrenched and very stubborn female nurses. These women are so strong-willed that even the doctors are afraid of them. Will these two "nursemen" persevere for men's rights in the end?
