The second season of the classic Japanese drama "Ooku" has been confirmed to produce the medical and shogunate themes

Adapted from the original work by Japanese manga artist Fumi Yoshinaga, NHK announced today that the second season of the classic Japanese drama "The Ooku" has been confirmed for production, with the theme of medical and shogunate chapters. It is scheduled to air in the golden autumn, so stay tuned.

· "Ooku" describes the Ooku, which was originally for the wives, concubines and ladies of the Japanese generals to live in. Due to a deadly epidemic that only infected men, the number of men in the country decreased significantly. Eighty years later, the male population dropped sharply to one-fourth of the female population. Coupled with the low survival rate of male infants, men were regarded as treasures for carrying on the family line. All the rough labor was done by women, and the family business was passed down from mother to daughter. In Edo Castle, after the third generation of general Iemitsu, the position of general was also inherited by a woman. And Ooku became the private harem of the female general, where women were not allowed to enter and had 3,000 handsome men.

The second season of "Ooku" focuses on the 10th shogun, Ieharu, and tells the story of young doctors overcoming difficulties to treat the difficult disease "herpes erythematosus" and the story of the opening of the castle at the end of the shogunate. Stay tuned.
