Two years before, Yamaguchi himself caused an incident, left the office and he worked hard outside of TOKYO, and even after quitting, he was communicating. I heard he is doing his best for himself. Two years after that. Although he did not erase after that, I was watching his efforts, but I couldn’t see (arrest video) directly, I was arrested because I was not supposed to drink and drive. I wonder why this happened. It’s a bit painful. This month 21 was also my debut day, but maybe I quit and was alone, maybe I was lonely and divorced from his family. I think it was painful for that, but I am not the only one who is going through a difficult time, I am not the only one who is doing the best I can and I think everyone is doing the best they can. that you understand that I am not the u unique. I wondered how much he had taken his reflections and lessons from two years ago, and I wonder if he still had a sweet part left. I want you to take it firmly.

I was really sure of that. I thought there was none.”

“Although I am an ordinary person, I am a former member and I had a drinking related accident, and there was a fact that I did not drink anymore. When I drank this time, I took 100 steps and drank alone, so don’t bother Some people may say it’s okay but if something happens while driving there it’s really useless but he must have known it would be a big deal due to the added coverage. I wonder how aware he was of that. I knew the one who was doing everything. possible, and I’m sorry, but I don’t want it to end as a person, I take this time again and step by step surely towards the future and towards my tomorrow. It is my sincere wish to say that. “
