Why is Shiyoh Hirano of “Kimpuri”, who is the talk of the town after appearing on M-station, “listless”?

SNS is currently abuzz over Shiyoh Hirano (26), a member of the popular Johnny’s group “King & Prince” (hereafter referred to as “Kimpuri”). It all started during a live broadcast of “Music Station” (M-Station) on TV Asahi on February 17. On that day, Kimpuri performed two new songs. At the beginning of the program, Tamori (77), the host of the show, said to the audience

You’re going to sing two songs today, right?

Hirano replied.

That’s right. I’m going to do two songs today, so I hope you will enjoy different ones.

But that was the end of the story. Thereafter, they talked several times during the program, but Hirano did not join in the conversation, and her smile was almost absent. Unlike the other members, who would smile during the songs when they were caught on camera, Hirano’s smile was only slightly raised at the corners of his mouth, and his tension was clearly low. The first song was the theme song from the drama “Sukisuki Wan Wan! (NTV), starring Yuta Kishi (27). It is a popular song composed by Koji Tamaki.

Hirano appeared on “ZIP!” (NTV) on February 15, two days earlier, with all the members, and when he introduced that they would sing the song on February 22 on “ZIP!

The second song, “Life goes on,” is not an intense song, but it is a song that shows a strong dance and is a cheerful song about “friendship and youth. In the music video, Hirano has a big smile on her face. However, it was clear that Hirano’s tension was low and she seemed to lack energy and concentration in her dancing. I think there were many viewers who felt something was wrong even if they were not fans.

Immediately after this, Twitter was filled with comments such as

“I’m used to Hirano-kun being unmotivated.

“It would be fine if you quit immediately without forcing yourself to stay with the group until May 22 (the day of the breakup). He can’t even have the professionalism to carry through with it, so there seems to be no point in him being in Kimpuri now, and neither can he.

She is too concerned about Tiara and doesn’t dare to smile.”

On the other hand, there was a string of critical comments such as, “He is not showing a smile because he is concerned about the tiara. On the other hand

“It’s a relief to know that she’s alive.

On the other hand, there were also comments such as, “I’m relieved to know he’s alive. Fans love Shiyou-kun.

Many messages of support such as “I’m relieved to know she’s alive,” and “Don’t force yourself to smile, it’s okay. This means that many viewers paid attention to Hirano’s appearance.

The reaction of the fans varied, but of course the most common was, ‘I want Hirano to get well. It is still worrisome that he is not in good health. It is possible that he is really not in good health. However, the most likely reason given by fans for Hirano’s lack of energy is that he is trying to keep a low profile for the sake of the other members. This is the most likely reason for the “lack of energy” among the fans.

Until now, Kimpuri has been referred to as ‘Hirano and his friends. Of course, there is no way that Hirano is pleased with that term, and it is also true that he has taken care to make the other members stand out more so far. So Hirano said that since there is not much left to do as Kimpli, he is thinking and acting so that each and every one of us other than himself will stand out well. I can understand why he would want to do so, but even if that were the case, he is making himself look even worse.

There are only three months left until the “breakup. Will the day come when Hirano will tell us his “true intentions”?
