Yonekura confessed that her appearance on the drama was in danger after suffering from low spinal fluid pressure syndrome before filming of the drama.

Yonekura said, “I am a bit nervous because it’s been a long time. But to see everyone, I’m happy. Before I started shooting the drama, I was doing a musical and I suffered low cerebrospinal fluid syndrome. I had an injury in my spinal cord and my cerebrospinal fluid had dropped. I couldn’t walk straight and couldn’t do anything. I’m able to talk about it now because I’m doing fine”.
