HANDSOME TALK - Kamiki Ryunosuke & Yoshizawa Ryo
(part 1)
“SUPER HANDSOME LIVE”, annual year-end fans thankgiving by AMUSE young actors which is held since 2005, now is renewed into “Amuse Presents HANDSOME FESTIVAL 2016”. Modelpress interviewed Kamiki Ryunosuke and Yoshizawa Ryo whom have appeared since 2009. This same age combi will talk about “What is Handsome?”
■Looking back at the time when you stand on “Handsome” stage for the first time, how was it? Kamiki: I was happy. Yoshizawa: Yeah, I was happy. Kamiki: At the first time, I was allowed to sing flumpool’s song for my solo, I appeared from the second floor, but for some reason the sound didn’t come out, so I started with a bow, it was awkward (laugh) But it was fun. I was allowed to dance for the first time too. At that time, I only thought it was really fun. Right now, of course it’s fun but is it good, because we did it and other people were looking properly, I think I’ve become an adult. Yoshizawa: The first time… I wonder how it felt. Is it fun? But I have no pleasant memories (laugh)
■The tension was greater? Yoshizawa: It was, since the time I entered the agency. Kamiki: That’s it. I wasn’t getting used to agency too. Yoshizawa: Back then I neither was an actor nor had a job. I also didn’t really know what I want to do. I was nervous. I haven’t got used to such job, suddenly appeared in front of the crowd and greeted “I’m Yoshizawa Ryo!” it’s embarassing (laugh)
■Are you reluctant to sing and dance? Kamiki: I originally like singing, at the level of karaoke. But I never learned dance, I don’t know where’s right or left. I felt that “I stepped into wrong field”.
■Specifically, what kind of place is it? Kamiki: Shortly, I met good person. (Hirama) Soichi, someone who always dance and sing on the stage. Because I saw such person, I wondered “I want to do this”. But when you tried to do, the body didn’t listen to what you said. Yoshizawa: That’s right. Kamiki: What you want and your ability are completely different. That thing was the first time, there’s no choice but practice more. Yoshizawa: People who are good at singing and dancing are around me. AMUSE are scary (laugh) Since we’re on the same place and pursue and seeking for the same quality, it became scary.
■Apart from the choreographer, do the cast teach each other? Yoshizawa: Yes. Kamiki: Soichi, (Uehara) Takuya and (Mizuta) Kouki… they are our teachers. Yoshizawa: They must be in Handsome.
■I think every year this kind of chance naturally strengthen your bond. Yoshizawa: We are on the same agency but our activities are different yet I don’t think we have less interaction, AMUSE always get together at the end of the year because there is Handsome.
■Looking at each other’s performance, which part you think is ‘amazing’? Kamiki: Ikemen!
■That’s quick (laugh) Kamiki: Because he’s called ‘prince’ Yoshizawa: Liar (laugh) Kamiki: Yoshizawa has become cool person. Even if you look back at the video, the way he hold the mic and the angle, the camera was here.. ta-da! He discovered. Yoshizawa: Are you stupid? (laugh) Kamiki: No, no, as expected. Yoshizawa: Because we were dancing, we should be careful of device’s point-to-point. Repeating a little choreography many times, through the camera’s point, it might practice your awareness. But he’s really good. In “Bang!”, even fans were like “Kamiki Ryunosuke is coming!” they knew and waited, it’s beyond expectation.
■This year the title is renewed to “HANDSOME FESTIVAL”, the contents can be changed too. Kamiki: Rather than live, it’s called ‘festival’. “Ah, AMUSE boys are still in good relationship,” I hope we can show that part. This year, we would like to re-start. Please look forward.
■What is “Handsome” for you? Kamiki: The only place where I can stand as Kamiki Ryunosuke, without worrying role and work. Since I usually can’t meet the fans, I’m very grateful, that’s a special place for me. Yoshizawa: Since it’s held annually at the end of the year, Handsome members and fans gather like “Next year, let’s do our best again”, the tension is great (laugh) Practice hard until the day, but it’s really fun, I’m sure fans are also thinking that way. It’s the place where we put the goal every year.
Here is the second part of Modelpress interview with Kamiki Ryunosuke and Yoshizawa Ryo about “Amuse Presents HANDSOME FESTIVAL 2016”, a fans thankgiving event by AMUSE young actors. It delivers a rare cross-talk of these same-age combi.
■What is “HANDSOME FESTIVAL 2016”? It started in 2005 as “SUPER HANDSOME LIVE”, an event to convey the gratitude to the fans. In the past, Koide Keisuke, Hiraoka Yuta, Sato Takeru, and Miura Haruma also appeared, the actors pursued entertainment through the event which was held for few days. Various performances such as sing, dance, musical were organized in high-quality stage and have gained good reputation. This year, the name of the event is renewed to “HANDSOME FESTIVAL 2016”, will be held for 2 days on December 17-18 at TOKYO DOME CITY HALL with the total of 4 performances. It stars 25 people including Kamiki, Yoshizawa, Matsuoka Koudai, Hirama Soichi, Matsushima Shota, Mizuta Kouki, Koseki Yuta.
■The most memorable stage? Yoshizawa: For me, 2013 is probably the best. Until then, live’s component like dancing and singing were strong. That year acting part, musical thingy came in. It was great and fun. Everyone showed awesome acting. Kamiki: I was cross-dressing. Yoshizawa: Me too! Kamiki: Though I properly wore skirt, the moment when I sat on the edge of the stage, the face of front-row audience were surprising me. When our eyes met I realized, “no way, she’s looking!” (laugh) The previous year (2012) is also impressive. I danced and sang a lot for the first time. Yoshizawa: That’s the year when we had original songs, huh. (※12 original songs of soundtrack THE HANDSOME SHOW were recorded and released before the event) Kamiki: Yes. We put original songs, it was the first experience. Yoshizawa: That year almost all we did is original. Kamiki: That’s why on that year we learned new choreography for a dozen of song, that’s a lot. Start from listening to get used to the place, it’s hard. Yoshizawa: But the fans’ enthusiasm was really awesome that year. Kamiki: As if the songs were there before. Yoshizawa: That’s why when original album was out for first time, I had no expectation.
■Mistake happened during the show? Kamiki: Last time Kaku Kento was amazing. Yoshizawa: Wasn’t he? (laugh) Kamiki: It’s not a mistake but he changed things every time. It’s an ad-lib. There’s a lyric “kindan no kajitsu (forbidden fruit)” on “THRILL”, at that time, he ate a fruit (laugh) It was strawberry. And he himself prepare a hair comb as props, these tricks are really interesting (laugh) He has outstanding sense. Yoshizawa: When it comes to performance, I pretend to make mistake (laugh) Tension raised, like ‘I wonder if I faced the camera?’ Kamiki: Someone tried to pass the mic on stage, I was surprised 'It’s not mine!’, I was singing with other’s mic (laugh) Yoshizawa: Really? Kamiki: Yes! I wrote “Kamiki” on the mic but 'Eh? It’s not mine!’ Because my part was coming, I took a mic which was written 'Uehara (Takuya)’ and singing while thinking 'I’m sorry, Takkun!’ (laugh) In the end (Totani) Kimito tried to pass it to me on the stage. Since there were many performers, it’s hard to remember where you put your mic.
■In an objective opinion which Handsome do you think is amazing? Kamiki: They are all good in dancing and singing but Matsushima Shota is always constantly good. Yoshizawa: Matsushima Shota is a genius! Kamiki: He did lot of miracle. Yoshizawa: It’s somehow interesting. Kamiki: He’s interesting, his presence is like god (laugh) He’s gonna work hard again this year.
■Both of you are in the same age. Do you remember first time you met? Kamiki: I thought he’s good-looking. Yoshizawa: When? Kamiki: Fukuyama Masaharu’s comeback concert Yoshizawa: Oh! Kamiki: I was wearing white cardigan. Yoshizawa: He’s wearing good cardigan (laugh) Kamiki: I thought 'You must be kidding! We are on the same age? No way!’ (laugh) His hairstyle also made him looked little bit young. Yoshizawa: In my memory, the 'Handsome’ Kamiki is huge. Kamiki: What’s big? (laugh) Yoshizawa: When we first met I was like 'It’s the person I saw on TV!’. 'It’s Kamiki Ryunosuke!’ He’s friendly, my impression of him didn’t change much from what I saw on TV. Kamiki: It might be difficult to approach me at first. But we were together at screening event of short film “THE GAME～Boy’s Film Show～” (2010), we’re close since that time. Yoshizawa: “DEAR MY GIRL” was born there. Kamiki: Right. In “THE GAME”, our band called 'Silent Maria’ reformed to idol! Yoshizawa: It’s awful. Kamiki: It’s because of our song! Yoshizawa: It was quite difficult, right.. Kamiki: It was really difficult! Perfume was the dance teacher. Because it’s the first time to dance, I was desperate to keep up with the teacher.
■What do you expect from each other for this year’s Handsome? Kamiki: I wonder how much handsomeness he’s gonna show us. Yoshizawa: This year will be great. Kamiki: Boom boom, Yoshizawa fever! Yoshizawa: No, no (laugh) It’s still Kamiki! Kamiki: Nope. Yoshizawa: Kamiki is awe-inspiring like sun.
■A message to fans? Kamiki: This year “HANDSOME FESTIVAL” will be different, I think. It’s an event that was created by seniors long time ago, but there are people who come back every year to see, that’s why this year we ’re-start’. If people who don’t know have interest, I’ll be happy. Yoshizawa: Since actors and fans are gathered, everyone can enjoy the entertainment. I hope Handsome leads to many things. The fundamental part is 'thanksgiving’, we’re also looking forward, everyone don’t forget to have fun on the event, I hope we can deliver the best to everyone. Please come by all means!
