Even after the BBC report…the moment when Johnny’s made a “wrong turn.

On the morning of October 6, Johnny’s completed the removal of the “Johnny&Associates” sign from its headquarters building in Akasaka, Minato-ku, Tokyo. In addition to the press photographing the “moment,” fans from all over the country rushed to the site after hearing the rumors,

The fans who had heard the rumors came from all over the country and asked, “Why did the Johnny’s office misread the public’s mood? Why did the Johnny’s office misread the public mood?

Some of them were in tears.

It was last summer when the media received information that the sexual assault by Mr. Janney Kitagawa “was going to be broadcast on the BBC. The first move was made at that point,” said one journalist who was interviewed for the program.

At that point, the first to make a move was the president of a PR firm that is friends with Keiko Fujishima Julie. Mr. A, who said he checked the BBC’s “J-Pop Predator: The Hidden Scandal” broadcast on March 7, 2011, before it went on the air, said, ‘It wasn’t a great story,’ and asked a major media outlet not to write about it because he thought it would be wrong to report it without knowing the true nature of the story. He asked a major media outlet not to write about it.

There may be victims among the current talents of Johnny’s, and vice versa. It could be a second rape.

However, after former Johnny’s Jr. member Cowan Okamoto held a press conference at the Foreign Correspondents’ Club of Japan on April 12, the public’s view of the Johnny’s office suddenly changed.

The pseudonym “Mr. Hayashi,” who had appeared on a BBC program, was responded to by any jani-wota who asked him, “I don’t know” or “I don’t understand.” But Mr. Cowan was the boy who danced in the center of “The Boys’ Club” (NHKBS Premium) until a few years ago. Everyone was shocked that such a famous Jr. who had been active until recently had been a victim.

In other words, in response to Cowan’s accusations, in May of this year, some media were hurriedly considering how to deal with the Johnny’s office.

Since that time, staff from the aforementioned PR firm have been visiting Johnny’s office on a daily basis, preparing comments from the office, and being involved in the filming of videos of Mr. Julie. Nevertheless, the janitaries are appearing on TV every day, and movies starring them are being released one after another. Performances starring Janitare have started at the Imperial Theatre and the Nissay Theatre. Each time, the media received a mountain of releases from the Johnny’s s office. In the meantime, what was going on at the scene?

“Surprisingly, nothing had changed,” said a photographer assigned to a women’s magazine.

said a photographer for a women’s magazine. Johnny’s executives who were at the press conferences and events at the time “looked the same as usual,” she said. When a reporter asked one of the executives, “Are you okay with the BBC’s report? He replied, “No, not at all,

He replied, “Not at all. It’s too late to make a fuss about something that happened so long ago.

He laughed and said, “I was a little bit surprised.

What was a little surprising was that there were female reporters from TV and idol magazines nearby, who also agreed with the cameraman, saying, “That’s right, isn’t it?

So a scene similar to that of some of the reporters who applauded Yoshihiko Inohara on October 2 was unfolding much earlier.

In the end, the Johnny’s’s office misread the public winds by surrounding itself with yes-men. It would have been better if Julie, Higashiyama Noriyuki, Inohara Yoshihiko, and others had realized sooner that it was imperative to cut off their “friends” in order to rebuild the office.
