Johnnys' WEST (ジャニーズWEST Janīzu uesuto) is a seven-member group from the talent agency Johnny & Associates.

Members

History

Pre-Debut

All of the members were working as part of Kansai Johnny's Jr. in different groups. Nakama Junta and Kiriyama Akito were a duo named B.A.D. and had the role of leaders of the Kansai Jrs. Shigeoka Daiki, Kotaki Nozomu, Fujii Ryusei and Kamiyama Tomohiro were the members of 7 WEST. Hamada Takahiro worked solo after his duo, BOYS, disbanded.

During the Johnny's Countdown at New Year 2014, an announcement was made, that a new Johnny's group would make their debut. During that time it was announced, that the groups name would be Johnnys' WEST 4 with Nakama Junta, Kiriyama Akito, Shigeoka Daiki and Kotaki Nozomu as members.

Later they find that having the number '4' in their name is inappropriate as the Japanese believe that '4' is a bad number. The 4 members used this chance to ask Johnny Kitagawa, the president of the agency, to add 3 more members to the group.
