破門 疫病神シリーズ   파문 역병신 시리즈   破門 瘟神系列

60 min × 8 eps|8 episodes

Kazuki Kitamura and Gaku Hamada co-star in a television dramatization of two seminal works from the hugely-popular, hard-boiled series, “Yakubyogami” by crime thriller writer, Hiroyuki Kurokawa: “Hamon” (Expulsion), based on the novel of the same name that won the 151st Naoki Prize, and the series’ debut novel, “Yakubyogami” (Hoodoo).
Set in Osaka, high-spirited yakuza Kuwabara and buttoned-down construction consultant Ninomiya form an odd couple as they rail against the city’s “bad elements” drawn to money like sharks to the scent of blood. Laced with the characteristic witty banter of the Osaka dialect here is a gritty, hard-boiled drama that explodes with violent thrills and impact that defies all expectations.
