Even before accepting the director's acceptance after watching director Shinjo Katayama's works, director Katayama himself was so curious that he sent a DM to SNS. I'm writing the script, but I'm looking forward to the work that will be created by director KatayamaHe expressed his expectation and belief in the work and director Shinjo Katayama, and director Shinjo Katayama said, "'Gasman No. 1' was an unusual creature called 'Gasman', but it was a work with human drama and melodrama.
