SMAP is Disbanding

Aug 22, 2016 22:48

I think it was around 2012 when I started to realize that SMAP cannot exist forever. They have to stop someday. We can't possibly demand them to keep dancing around shaking their butts when they reach 56 right? So I did have a glimpse of picture what it is like if SMAP ever disband. I have imagined it before. They will definitely have no problem in ( Read more... )

Yanie, once again, thank you for your long post and analysis ^^
I'm so sad and so angry against Mary and Cie for what they made to them. I hope their bond will be stronger than all that nasty things.
If they disband to protect SMAP or to protect each other, I accept it. But why do they stay in the Jimusho ? Have they plans we don't know ? Maybe Nakai and his agency... ? Wait and see.
Tonikaku, I want them to be free and happy. Of course, I'll miss them all five together, but I'll continue to love them separately and to support them form the bottom of my heart. SMAP will live forever. They'll stay SMAP forever even after disbanding. I'm sure ^^
Thank you again, Yanie.

I have been a read-only follower of your journal since I knew SMAP not many years ago. Reading your journals about SMAP is one of only few ways that allow me to follow up their news ( ... )

It's quite sad what's happening with SMAP :( Not a fan, but they are honestly the ones who made possible that some other idol groups could be succesful afterwards (and, in a way, shaped the concept of what idols are from their debut onwards). It's not the end a group like them should have ( ... )

I've been following SMAP for a few years now, I'm thinking there is some serious reason why they don't want to go on. A few member seem shocked/saddened by their statements and others don't seem to care and are matter-of-fact ( ... )

THIS! I bet that next year there will be news about private matters (probably from the ones who wanted to disband). There must be pretty strong reasons behind what's going on right now.
