A book written based on Adler's psychology, "The Courage to Be Disliked" became a best seller selling over 1.4 million copies and it will be turned into a Fuji TV Thursday drama "The Courage to Be Disliked" (Starting January, Thursday 10PM). Actress, Karina (32) will be playing the lead role, Ando Ranko, who is a "disliked woman" that doesn't care about what other think of her. Kato Shigeaki (29) from NEWS and Shiina Kippei (52) will also be in it.

 

This book was arranged into a detective story where Ando Ranko will personify Adler and his theories. Ranko's subordinate, Aoyama, who is "A man that doesn't want to be disliked" will be played by Kato. Shiina will play teh role of psychology professor, Daimonji, who is "A man who knows everything".

 

This is the first time in 5 years that Karina will be playing the lead role in a Fuji TV drama. The producer, Watanabe revealed that he chose her as the lead because, "The main character is the type that doesn't get influenced by those around and lives as she believes and it fit her perfectly".

I usually don't like Shige's acting so I don't know how this will turn out. The comments on Yahoo aren't too good either :/ But I'm excited for Karina.

I like Karina so I'm excited to see this.

 

The title is funny to me though.
