The context

King & Prince is a hugely popular Japanese idol group under Johnny & Associates (now SMILE-UP.), known for their music, variety shows, and acting careers of its members. Ren Nagase is a prominent member of King & Prince, highly regarded for his acting prowess and striking looks, having starred in numerous dramas and films.

Ai Yoshikawa is a rising young Japanese actress who has gained recognition for her roles in various television series and movies.

Oni no Hanayome (鬼の花嫁), which translates to "The Demon's Bride" or "The Ogre's Bride," hints at a fantasy romance genre. In Japanese folklore, "oni" (demons/ogres) are supernatural beings, often depicted as powerful and sometimes benevolent, sometimes malevolent, but always possessing extraordinary qualities. This type of fantastical love story, often involving a human character falling in love with a supernatural entity, is a popular subgenre in Japanese novels, manga, and anime, appealing to a wide audience with its blend of romance, drama, and mythical elements. The film is likely an adaptation of a popular novel or manga series within this genre.
