It's unfortunate frankly cos not a lot are into Johnnys , LDH , let alone the giant AKB family tree

That said , there're a few male solo acts that're doing fine & are also having the same issues as the female solo acts too

i wouldnt say they arent into solo artists. theres actually a lot of successful solo artists but they arent big celebrities anymore like Ayu, Kuu or Namie. those idol groups arent that popular with the GP anymore. K-pop is bigger with the GP
