Information
There has been many rumors circulating to whenever he actually left the agency on his own will or if he got kicked out thanks to him being issued in a tabloid magazine with a woman. The official news that went out was that he wanted to "focus on his studies".[2] However in this agency there's a strictly no dating policy. He was in a band called Chivary of Music before joining ONE OK ROCK in 2005.
