Today's morning news are about Johnny's Jimusho canceling Jin's Japanese triumph tour planned for April-May as punishment (and Jimusho's ability to see in the future!!).
Sanspo:
About the singer Akanishi Jin (27) who got married suddenly with actress Kuroki Meisa (23) on 2nd day of last month, Johnny's Jimusho had cancelled a 5 city 7 performance tour scheduled between April~May in arenas across the country, has been confimed on the 24th.
The Jimusho has explained to Sanspo reporters that "He has devianted the courtesy as a member of the society" about his penalty. Also affecting the work of Kuroki who's already into third month of pregnancy, including not reporting to the Jimusho and related sides about submitting the marriage registration on Feb 2nd, and judging the fact of "reporting afterwards" on the heavier side.
(Jimusho) also implied that "The debt of cancelling the tour will be borne by Akanishi himself". Although the tickets have not gone on sale yet, there is still the charge for renting and using the arena venues on the counts of several million yen. This extreme burden on cancellation fee is seemed as a "severe punishment" on the person himself.
US-based Akanishi has held his tour this month 9th~17th in 5 cities in the US. The national tour was scheduled to be a triumph tour based on that from the beginning of April to beginning of May to 5 cities including that of Tokyo and Osaka involing 70 thousand people, the schedule was planned to be announced around Feb 9th when the wedding news broke out.
Jimusho again appologized that "We are sorry to bring huge amount of trouble to the fans and people related".
Hochi:
Jin commented "I deeply apologize for my deviant of courtesy as a member of the society and I am sorry to bring huge amount of trouble to the fans and people related".
Nikkan:
The tour was planned to cover Tokyo, Osaka, Sapporo, Nagoya and Fukuoka arenas with 7 performances involving 70 thousand people. The actual planning of the tour was supposed to be announced on the January fan event in Yokohama, more details of the schedule and venue in February. But the announcement of the sudden marriage with Kuroki was at the beginning of February Jimusho decided to froze the announcement about the tour details.
About the flow of work schedule, Jimusho commented "At this point nothing has been decided". Saying this, it seems that the idol star was given the main character of a drama. The work that was scheduled to start this July, that was previously casted by Sorimachi Takashi, was the remake of the famous series GTO. Although the production Kansei TV that planned the remake commented "There was nothing planned", and having no official announcement, it was reported that there was already preparations.

Sanspo and Hochi say different source for the comment so it's no sure was it Jin's or Jimusho's comment.

Jimusho planned to announce about the tour plans in January but decided to hold that and other information because of Jin getting married in FEBRUARY. Why? Do they see in the future or are they contradicting their earlier announcement Jin reporting late about the marriage? Food for thought.
