Movie My Home Hero cast thanks audience at stage greeting. On March 20, a stage greeting for the
movie My Home Hero was held at Marunouchi Piccadilly to thank fans for its success.
Cast members Sosuke Saito, Asuka Saito, Kyohei Takahashi, from Naniwa Danshi, and Tei Kimura
attended the event. The packed audience erupted in cheers as the cast appeared on stage.
Sosuke expressed gratitude for the support, saying it's been two weeks since the release,
and I'm very happy to see you all here at the theater. Enjoy today as well. Takahashi humorously
mixed up a character's name, showing his natural charm. The film has topped the weekend box office
rankings for 13 days since its release. When asked about feedback, Sosuke mentioned industry
professionals saying, they watched it and said they were embarrassed but cried. Asuka shared
that her mother, a tough critic, praised her performance, saying, I finally thought Asuka's
acting was good. Sosuke reflected on the emotional response from audiences, noting, it's a crime
suspense genre, so would it touch people? I was not intentionally aiming for tears during filming.
Kimura, portraying a character with deep family bonds, mentioned, I didn't intend to make people
cry, but I realized that the deeper the love for family, the more tears flow. I think the family
love I cultivated in dramas overflowed on screen. Sosuke discussed the challenging final scene at
sunrise, saying we had to shoot while the sun was up, and it was tough. After that, we had more
18:01
scenes to film back to back, but I think the momentum carried us through. Asuka, mentioning
the graduation concert of a certain idol group, said it was tough, but we captured a beautiful
sunrise scene that I think turned out great. Kimura tearfully shared, watching the interactions
between the two, Sosuke and Asuka, from a distance, I cried multiple times before my scene.
The effort and emotions on set mixed in, and when I watched the completed film, I cried.
Ending with a hopeful sunrise was also wonderful. I felt it was a fitting conclusion.
