Arashi member Ninomiya Kazunari made an appearance on October 15th’s episode of “A-Studio“, a variety talk show hosted by MCs Shofukutei Tsurube and IMALU. Interestingly enough, Tsurube researches his guest throughly by watching their work, even going as far as interviewing people who are close to the guest. The interviewees could be the guest’s manager, old friend, or family member; the guest doesn’t get to know who received the interview until the show airs.
For this episode, Tsurube interviewed ex-Johnny’s Jr. member Kohara Yuki. Kohara Yuki was extremely popular back in the day, but retired in order to concentrate on his studies in 2000. Kohara is now an ordinary business man, but he’s still close to the JE boys, particularly Ninomiya and Sakurai Sho. Kohara revealed in the interview that Ninomiya grabbed his cellphone when he quit JE, and changed his name to “Best friend“. He confessed that it made him very happy when he saw the change on his phone.
