Snow Man “Ren Meguro”, whose works have been very well received across the board… A surprising side of Snow Man that his Johnny’s classmate “Yoshitaka Hara” told him about.
A writer for an idol magazine commented on the personality of such a successful idol Meguro.
In March of this year, Johnny’s actor Yoshitaka Hara appeared on “I Am Adventure Boy” (TBS), a variety show in which Meguro appears regularly. Hara and Meguro are classmates and used to work together in the Johnny’s Jr. unit Uchu Six. The day after the broadcast, Hara revealed on his blog on Johnny’s web, a members-only website, that Meguro had approached the show’s producer two or three years earlier and asked him to let him go to Escape Island with him because “there’s this guy Hara” and “it’ll be fun.
Meguro joined Snow Man in January 2007 while concurrently working with Space Six. In August of the same year, Snow Man’s debut was decided, and Meguro left Space Six. Meguro’s subsequent leaps and bounds are well known, but I guess he still cherishes his old friends.
Hara is a skilled actor, but his main base of activities is the stage. Thanks to Meguro, Hara was able to appear in a variety of prime-time shows, and he recalls that it was like a dream come true for him. He also praised Meguro, saying, “He’s a real fellow traveler. Fans were also impressed by Meguro’s kindness on SNS, calling him a ‘loyal guy’ and ‘friend-oriented.
With the current momentum on his side, expectations are high for the upcoming summer drama “Trillion Game,” in which he will play the lead role, to perform well.
