Noriyuki Higashiyama (54) made a live appearance on the TV Asahi affiliate information show “Sunday LIVE !!” (Sunday 5:50 am) on the 22nd, and released “Weekly Bunharu” on the 12th, 5 years ago. He mentioned Masahiko Kondo (56), who was reported to have had an affair with a company president under the age of 25 whom he met.

Higashiyama commented on this report: “The response from the office. It was a bit late to draw a conclusion from Mr. Masahiko Kondo, so we did not know how to respond.”

In the middle of the show, he said, “I’ve been growing up with Mr. Kondo for over 40 years looking at his back. I know the good and the bad.” I think the “responsibility” will change. Mr. Masahiko Kondo, who has failed to fulfill that responsibility, is very disappointed. We need to see what happens in the future. “…” I can’t hate it from my point of view. I can’t hate Match-san. I feel like I’m in that conflict right now, “he said.

Finally, he said: “I am in a position to show what I have to do. I have high hopes of how to show it in the future.”

Kondo acknowledged his infidelity report and received indefinite self-scrutiny of the artistic activities from Johnny’s office, saying, “I will reconsider and dedicate myself to regaining everyone’s trust.” As the “oldest son” of the same office, who is in a position to show off his juniors, he volunteered not only for entertainment but also to refrain from running.
