TOKYO —

Actress Satomi Ishihara will star in the two-part NHK medical drama “Shimei to Tamashi no Limit,” based on the novel by mystery writer Keigo Higashino.

Ishihara, 24, plays a resident intern at a university hospital who aspires to become a cardiac surgeon. However, she harbors suspicions about the death of her father during an operation. Finding the truth becomes her mission in life.

At a press conference to promote the drama, which airs from 9 p.m. on Nov 5 and 12, Ishihara said that her mission in real life is to be nice to her parents and work at something that will be good for people.

    Oh I say! An absolute cracker. She aspires to a career in medicine? I've got a bit of a swelling she could take a look at.

    Not a single line about her dating, or sex life. Were the reporters daydreaming or something?

    Satomi has been promoted from nurse to doctor! Congratulations!

    Unfortunately in this drama we are probably not going to see her magnificent bellybutton.
