Stage play “Shonentachi”: Since its debut in 1969, 'Shonen-tachi' has evolved and continued as a series. Kis-My-Ft2, A.B.C-Z, Johnny's WEST, SixTONES, Snow Man, and other Johnnys' Jr. talents have also appeared before their CD debut. It's considered a stepping stone for young talents, and in 2019, it was adapted into its first movie. This year, Bishonen takes their solo lead, Hiroki Uchi also appears, and Hikaru Iwamoto (Snow Man) takes on the role of director, choreographer, and stage composition alone for his first time. It's a refreshing stage that portrays the conflicts of these boys, along with the friendships that lies ahead.
