Information

Apart from the various plays, musicals, commercials and TV shows KAT-TUN appears in, he hasn't done much individual work compared to the other members. In 2008 he held a series of solo concerts entitled Mouse Peace (the concert symbol is a mouse making the peace sign with its fingers). He had a role in the 2009 drama Konkatsu!, alongside SMAP's Nakai Masahiro.

As a hobby he enjoys boxing. When he was younger, he claimed to see a fairy, until he turned 20 and he couldn't see the "so-called" fairy anymore.

Along with fellow band-mates Akanishi Jin and Nakamaru Yuichi, he used to be in the Johnny's Jr. group M.A.D..
