Japanese star **Ayaka Miyoshi** is stepping into Korean cinema with a bang. Her debut role in **“Tazza 4: The Song of Beelzebub”** puts her at the center of a global gambling war — and early stills already tease a character who sees every move before it happens.

## Who She’s Playing

Miyoshi plays **Kaneko**, a managing director at a Japanese company with ties to a yakuza organization. Kaneko invests in the online casino empire built by former best friends **Jang Tae Young (Byun Yo Han)** and **Park Tae Young (Roh Jae Won)** — then personally designs a massive gambling game pulling in powerful figures from Japan and Vietnam. Elegant on the surface, calculating underneath, she quietly controls the direction of the entire game.

## Joining an Iconic Lineage

With this role, Miyoshi steps into a legacy of standout female leads in the **Tazza franchise**, following Kim Hye Soo in the original *Tazza* and Shin Sae Kyeong in *Tazza: The Hidden Card*. Character stills already hint at her piercing, all-seeing gaze.

## How She Prepared

To make Kaneko believable as someone who can read a room and take control of a game, Miyoshi **learned to play poker herself**. She also helped co-star Roh Jae Won polish his Japanese dialogue, refining his delivery down to sentence endings and speech patterns.
