Emiko, maybe that guy thought that Ayu should have prefered Arashi than Tohoshinki.. Bcoz Arashi is from Japan..
Where Tohoshinki originally from Korea..
Maybe I'm wrong, should have asked the person who pointed out Tohoshinki and Arashi.. Hehe

Well, the media actually kind of always comparing both groups.. And Arashi sell their stuff to Korea through Tohoshinki's agency SM Entertainment..
So I guess, there are no such rivalry between the two, or with any other groups..
Even NEWS Yamapi was spotted going to their 4th live tour concert, even Keita's w-inds. And Kanjani8 mentioned about them at their concert during the MC part..
They seriously gain popularity in Japan this year, they're at their peak rite now, but sadly, they have to go on the lawsuit with their agent in Korea
But anyway, the news bout Ayu has become their fan has already brighten my day

Many Tohoshinki fans feel grateful about such news, because, Japanese ppl, the media, the artists seem to really praise their hardowrks a lot...
Oh myyyyy.... I gotta stop now... Let's continue at Tohoshinki's thread...
