<h2>I&#8217;m so happy for you!</h2>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> 29 years ago today, Tetsuwan DASH started. And just now, we received a happy report from Tatsuya Yamaguchi himself that he has taken a new step forward. I&#8217;m glad!　I really congratulate you. Be happy!</span></p>
<p>Ltd.&#8217;s official X congratulated Tatsuya Yamaguchi, a former member of the idol group TOKIO, who announced his remarriage on November 2.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p>Yamaguchi reported on his website that he had married a civilian woman, and then he talked about his future,</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> I will continue to live &#8220;today, one day at a time,&#8221; while dealing with alcoholism for the rest of my life, being grateful for everything.</span></p>
<p>I will live my life to the fullest so that I have no regrets,&#8221; he said in his resolution.</p>
<p>The former members of the group sent their encouragement to him as he was rehabilitated and living a positive life.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p>However, in the X posted by TOKIO Inc.</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Please don&#8217;t mention Tatsuya Yamaguchi&#8217;s name and face. It makes me nauseous.</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Is it Johnny&#8217;s tradition to pretend that sexual assault never happened?</span></p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Nothing has changed, these guys are Johnny&#8217;s.</span></p>
<p>The schedule of lectures across the country has been reduced to a few days.</p>
<div data-friday-nextpage-lead="The schedule of lectures across the country is jam-packed."></div>
<h2>The meaning is very different.&#8221;</h2>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Yamaguchi has a strong impression of being an alcoholic, but in &#8217;18, when he was a regular on &#8220;ZIP!&#8221; (Nippon Television Network), he was sent to prosecution for indecent assault of a high school girl he was co-starring with on another program and was removed from the program. Although he reached a settlement with the victim and the prosecution was suspended, it was a legal matter. That is why the meaning of Yamaguchi&#8217;s announcement on his website and TOKIO members publicly congratulating him must be very different.</span></p>
<p>Yamaguchi is now sober and gives lectures to other addicts to encourage them. If you look at his schedule on his official website, it is packed with lectures all over the country. He is extremely busy, and at the same time, there are probably people who are encouraged by him.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p>At the same time, however, there is no denying the possibility that Yamaguchi&#8217;s &#8220;negative image&#8221; will remain with him for the rest of his life.</p>
<p><span class="strongInContent"> Even after so much time has passed, people tend not to forgive him for his past sexual assaults. There are many celebrities who have returned to work if they were involved in underage lewdness, but the hurdle to return to work is extremely high for sexual assault. Even though Ms. Yamaguchi is now a civilian, there is still a great deal of backlash at every turn.</span></p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p>Nevertheless, it is not unforgivable that a person who has committed a crime or scandal can also reflect and reform while fulfilling his or her life. It seems certain that the members of TOKIO are supporting Mr. Yamaguchi as he continues to show his rehabilitated image.</p>
