Yamaguchi Kenki and Haishimoto Taito Departure Announcement
I'm sure you've all heard about it by now - especially seen as I was blasting it all over twitter and LINE - but I thought it's best to post it here too.
Yesterday, it was announced that on the 25th December, Yamaguchi Kenki and Hashimoto Taito would be leaving D-BOYS and Watanabe Entertainment.
All the members who blogs commenting on the departure including the two guys themselves.

*Suzuki, Araki etc. have no yet posted about it yet. If they do, I will update!
To make a quick summary of the two guys blogs...
Hashimoto Taito: I want to focus on performing
Yamaguchi Kenki: I need to start a new stage in my life
It was obvious that Taito was going to join Original Quest or a group/company close to them as he's been with them almost completely for the past 4 or 5 months. Kenki's case, on the other hand, implies that he's leaving the entertainment business for good and there's talk that it's because he's going to take over his family's company.
I wish both of them the best of luck!!
