Genki Iwahashi
Genki Iwahashi is a member Johnny's Jr.. He joined the infamous all-male talent agency in November 2010. His progress in his chosen career was slow at first. But fans begun to notice Iwahashi because of his cute face and dimples and shy yet has a strong sense of responsibility type of personality. Confessing to being bullied in middle school (and therefore not attending school), insecure Iwahashi was actually noticeably more popular than the other Juniors whom he was usually seen appearing on tv shows with.
Currently, he is a member of a Junior unit called Sexy Boys (formerly Sexy Boyz) with other Juniors Jinguji Yuta, Kishi Yuta, Miyachika Kaito and Aran Abe. It was recently [2014] announced that Iwahashi is now a member of the new unit called Sexy Boyz (reason why their group's name's spelling was changed from having a z to an s at the end) with Jinguji and Sexy Zone member Marius Yo. Sexy Boyz was formed for the Johnny's Junior summer show called Gamushara Sexy Natsu Matsuri, which will begin on July 30, 2014 and will run until August 10, 2014.
