Being the youngest, Kochan seemed to really love the idea of having a little brother (/_\)

He's obviously very fond of Tsuyo that he couldn't stop grinning from ear-to-ear when looking at aikata (^-^) always stay and stare so near

And seems like such thought never change. Up until now 🥰

maybe it grew even fonder

[Eng Translation] Tsuyoshi's song to Koichi from E Album Campaign - Furusato E Fureai

Kochan, as I realised you always tend to go shirtless

Kochan,  in So Young Blues, although you looks nice shirtless, instead of taking it off yourself you make others (dancers) to take it off

When I saw that figure, I think "you've now become heavenly"

Though I think that way, that's the only odd part that I see...

Forgive me, for always troubling you with my neverending gloomy morning

Even today, when my heart is trembling and turning into tears

Just by imagining your face the night will eventually becomes better

Back in predebut days, Koichi was super awkward that he couldn't even smile infront of the camera. So he asked Tsuyoshi to stand behind the camera and tell him jokes while taking the shots 🤭

◇ Domoto Tsuyoshi, the one who can make ouji smile the brightest ◇

What a sight to behold ❤️💙

KinKi Kids Interview in Josei Seven February 2023 Edition (Tsuyoshi's side)

"Even after 25 years, our style remains the same"

How did the new song 'The Story of Us' is born?

We both casually came up with the words, and made it together while tapping the machines and keyboard. Since the order (theme) is set to be "cheer song" from the beginning, the path is clear already. However, it's actually hard to create "cheer song" in this Corona era. After all, everyone has been doing their best already ne. During the peaceful days, anyone can challenge for a bright future if they have the spirit, but that's not the case anymore. That's why we chose the words and write the lyrics while thinking "what is the best way to snuggle up to each of the listeners' wound without leaving anyone behind?".

For 25 years since debut, is there any changes in the way you deal with KinKi Kids in terms of work?

Nothing ever change. Johnny-san have clearly said,"When doing something on your own, don't turn it into an extension of two people". So when we are together, we will look for something that only the two of us can offer. And when we work independently, we will work on something that we can only find on our own. That style will never change.

The first edition includes the covers of 'Goodbye Countdown' by Shonentai and '…。' by 光GENJI. What did you feel when singing senpai songs?

They were songs we sang on stage several times before our official debut. As music itself is like a time machine, even when I sing it now the images of that day come back to me, and I get to see who I was back then. "Ah, that's why I love music," it somehow came back to me. During the recording, we sang this song to express our gratitude to senpaitachi who have been walking infront of us with their strong back shown to us.

If you can talk to yourself from the debut days, what do you want to tell him?

"People will say whatever they want. People might barely able to see the real you. But, as long as you live the way you are, it'll be fine." That's what I want to tell. Ever since back then, I don't like to gloss over myself just to be more presentable, and I can't do it. There were times I clashed with others, and slowly grew tired that I ended up thinking "It is better to say nothing".  From then on, I began to lose my actual self. Since the time keep changing and I was still young, I didn't have the courage nor strength to face it that I was troubled and hurt. That's why I want to tell myself from back then "You'll be fine as long as you live as yourself, just do your best".

Lastly, what kind of year would you like 2023 to be?

Last year, I was very happy to receive apparel-related job. It was refreshing to challenge the world I never knew and meeting the new me, and I hope I can meet myself the same way this year. Surely everyone has been looking up on what to do or what to be in the past two years. But the pandemic arrived and everything collapsed. Nobody would've expected there'll be a time when the future is unforeseeable. Just like the yell to my past self just now, I think, the most important thing for everyone right now is to live as their own selves. For me, to live in your own love, as long as you don't forget the love, you'll be lead to the lovely people and the moments. I want to spend this year while cherishing that feeling.
