The press conference of "Byakuyakou" was held on 10 Jan at ANA Hotel where cast members including Yamada Takayuki and Ayase Haruka made appearances. The story is based on the bestselling novel by Higashino Keigo where Yamada plays a young man who kills his father so as to save his first love while Ayase plays a girl who kills her mother to protect him. This time round, both of them will have kissing and bed scenes which is in stark contrast from the pure love story they did in "Sekai no Chuushin de Ai wo Sakebu". As such, both of them said that they hoped to ditch their past images with this drama.
