Nakashima Mika's new ballad receives drama tie-up

Nakashima Mika's new song "Alone" has been picked up as the theme song for NTV's special drama 'Ai wo Kou Hito', premiering on January 11.

"Alone" was included in the singer's CD "Songbook Amanojaku" and live album "MTV Unplugged", which were released back in October. It's a ballad number that she had in mind since a few years ago.

Based on a novel by Shimoda Harumi, 'Ai wo Kou Hito' is a human drama that depicts a complex relationship between a mother and daughter. Actress Shinohara Ryoko plays a mother named 'Toyoko' and her daughter 'Terue' as an adult, making this her first time playing the role of two characters in a drama.

I try to translate what the articles wrote which're more or less the same thing they wrote across

I do my best cos I'm not that good with Traditional Chinese , at least there's Google Translate to help me change the Chinese words to Simplified & also when the words are read out to me , I can pick up on what's being said

But anyway ...

Spoiler:

- 5,000 fans attended today's concert
- Mika cosplayed as Santa Claus
- Mika sang 25 songs today , inclusive of Aishiteru , Yuuki no Hana , ORION (she sang it while sitting on the horse prop) , ALL HANDS TOGETHER , GLAMOROUS SKY , Sakurairo Mau Koro , Forget Me Not
- The stage had a festive Christmas setting . During the interludes , ballet dancers & clowns were onstage
- Mika spoke to the crowd & said her name in Chinese before she switched back to use Japanese . Prior to that , she asked the fans if that's ok
- Mika said she was actually approached to perform in Taipei 10 years ago . But back then , she wasn't confident enough to do a concert overseas . She felt nervous today & her fingers were trembling but she still decide to preserve on despite this
