<p> Travis Japan, a seven-member idol group from STATO ENTERTAINMENT, which took over management and other operations from the former Johnny&#8217;s, held a concert in Los Angeles, USA, on October 15 (October 14 local time) on its world tour.</p>
<p> In the midst of all this, X,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> A post on X, &#8220;Former President Keiko Fujishima Julie Fujishima came to the LA concert.</span></p>
<p> The post, &#8220;Former President Keiko Fujishima Visits LA Concert,&#8221; has become a hot topic on X. The topic has become a hot topic due to the numerous postings that not only Mr. Jun Fukuda, president of STARTO, but also Ms. Keiko Fujishima Julie, president of the former Johnny&#8217;s office, were present at the L.A. venue.</p>

<h2> In the past, he had said he would &#8220;focus on compensation and emotional care.&#8221; &#8230;&#8230;</h2>
<p> Last May, then-Johnny&#8217;s office president Julie apologized for the first time for the sex-abuse issue of former president Janie Kitagawa.</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> He issued a statement saying, &#8220;From now on, I will concentrate on compensation and psychological care for the talents, and will not be involved in any other business.</span></p>
<p> He was supposed to have left the entertainment industry altogether. Although Johnny&#8217;s Sexual Assault Association was dissolved in September of this year, the end of the compensation work is not yet in sight.</p>
<p> On the 8th of this month, the third mediation between former representative Shimon Ishimaru and &#8220;SMILE-UP.&#8221; (SMILE-UP) was held at Saitama Summary Court. When Mr. Ishimaru appealed against the posted amount of 18 million yen, SMILE-UP. added 2 million yen and offered 20 million yen.</p>

<div data-friday-nextpage-lead=" Some welcomed &quot;Julie-san to come and see the show.&quot;"></div>
<h2>The office&#8217;s view on the &#8220;Julie inspection&#8221; is: &#8230;&#8230;</h2>
<p> Mr. Ishimaru brought up the precedent of 40 million yen in another past sexual assault case,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> He said at a press conference last year, &#8220;Smile Up said, &#8216;We will compensate you beyond the law.&#8217; Isn&#8217;t it strange that they would pay less than the 40 million yen they were ordered to pay in a trial under the law?&#8221;</span></p>
<p> He complained. The week after the trial, Julie Fujishima showed up at Travis&#8217; LA concert.</p>
<p> On social networking sites, fans were divided in their reactions</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> It&#8217;s hard to hold back my tears. Julie-san came to see the show, didn&#8217;t he?</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> I&#8217;m so happy that Julie-san is watching Toraja.</span></p>
<p> On the other hand, there were welcoming comments like &#8220;I&#8217;m so happy that Julie came to see Toraja,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> If this is true, it means that Smile and Start are still connected, which makes the &#8220;separation of management&#8221; suspicious&#8230;?</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> If Mr. Julie and President Fukuda also came to Los Angeles to perform, I wonder if there is some kind of contract change or new agreement.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> What does it mean that they are supposed to concentrate on compensation work?</span></p>
<p> What&#8217;s going on?</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> NHK Chairman Inaba announced that the so-called &#8220;old Johnny&#8217;s&#8221; slot would be reinstated in this year&#8217;s Kohaku, saying, &#8220;Over the past year, we have confirmed that Smile has made steady progress in compensating victims and preventing recurrence, as well as in separating the management of the two companies. However, if Mr. Julie, who has a great deal of influence, is still in contact with the talent, it is no wonder that there are doubts about his &#8220;devoting himself to compensation. &#8230;&#8230;&#8221; (sports newspaper reporter)</span></p>
<p> We asked STARTO to confirm whether Mr. Julie Fujishima and President Fukuda visited the concert venue and whether Mr. Julie was involved in the management of STARTO,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> The company responded by e-mail, &#8220;It is true that Mr. Fujishima came to the concert as a private guest, but he was not involved in the management of STARTO in any way.</span></p>
<p> He responded by e-mail, &#8220;It is true that you came to the concert as a private visitor, but we are not involved in the management. I hope this does not put a damper on the activities of my &#8220;children&#8221; whom I have sent elsewhere. &#8230;&#8230;</p>
