Snow Man this New Year 2019 -> 2021 playback (part 1/3)

Round-table discussion 2019 highlights!

Snow Man causes excitement on the pages of the TV Guide every year-end and New Year holidays (December 29 - January 3). A playback of the members waiting for their debut in the January ’19 issue to their friendly photos and talk in the ’21 New Year issue! Don’t miss their round-table discussion with reprinted photos too~!

’19 January issue

During Johnny’s Jr. days.  They appeared wearing rat one-piece pajamas to represent the zodiac for ’20. The 9 members’ chu- (play on the sound of a kiss and squeak of a mouse) faces were cute too. From around this time, Raul tightly held onto Meguro. <3

’19 January issue: Raul is refined, Meme is emitting testosterone, Shota is cute

Sakuma: Also, Raul walked at TGC (Tokyo Girls Collection) alone.

Fukazawa: Is that so? So that was in ’19!

Sakuma: That became a connection for everyone’s work. I’m happy.

Meguro: I’m grateful!

Sakuma: Also, you’re in a drama with Non-chan (Kotaki Nozomu) right now! You’re appearing a lot on TV. That’s unthinkable during ���18!

Raul: I can’t imagine it! I want to say just one thing. I became refined!

Watanabe: You’re saying it yourself (laughs).

Meguro: You were waiting for it to be said to you, right?

Raul: Yeah (laughs).

Mukai: It’s true! In terms of appearance, Raul changed the most!

Raul: That’s right! Meme too. He seduced women the most!

Mukai: The “testosterone”!

Sakuma: He was emitting it~ “testosterone”!

Miyadate: It was in the 2nd verse of “Party! Party! Party!”, but when Meguro sang that, the number of women falling for him increased rapidly.

Fukazawa: Thanks for the explanation (laughs).

Raul: And because there’s nothing inside him, he is unexpectedly funny in variety shows.

Watanabe: Fuhahahaha!

Sakuma: What do you mean (laughs)!?

Fukazawa: Are you insulting him? Are you complimenting him?

Meguro: It’s true though. Lately, I’ve been appearing in variety a lot.  

Sakuma: There are a lot of variety shows that are physically challenging.

Abe: It means that you’ve been acknowledged!

Fukazawa: Wasn’t Shota in at least 3 dramas this ’19?

Mukai: That’s amazing! He’s in the drama group!

Raul: You look good in the video!

Watanabe: (making an embarrassed face)

Raul: And, in a serious note, he kindly leads us in terms of singing performance.

Sakuma: He really does!

Raul: Listening to his singing feels good.

Watanabe: (making an embarrassed face once again)

Raul: And he’s cute!

Fukazawa: He suddenly became cute in ’19. We didn’t know he could make that face.

Sakuma: I think that with 9 members there are more and more places for Shota to simply be himself.

Iwamoto: That’s right.

Watanabe: ...enough, enough already (embarrassed). Thank you, everyone!

Sakuma: Should we end it here? Thank you very much!

All members: Thank you very much!

Fukazawa: I’m not done yet!!

’19 New Year issue

They wore cat ears and transformed. The other members were in a big fuss and surrounded the youngest, Rau-cat when he played with a fur ball for this shoot. He looked like a real cat while playing with the yarn. For the talk, the members excitedly discussed what kind of cat they would be!

’19 New Year issue: What kind of cat are the Snow Man members? Fukka-san is a robot cat!

Sakuma: I’m a male Calico cat!!

Fukazawa: He’s the one saying it so I want to respect that. Raul is a Sphinx. This is already final. He’s really cool! Stylish!

Raul: Hee~ that makes me happy.

Watanabe: Somehow it feels like it won’t lose hair...

Fukazawa: On the contrary, it doesn’t grow hair.

Watanabe: Really!?

Iwamoto: I’m fine with being a normal cat. Maybe I’m an Oriental Shorthair?

Mukai: How cool!

Raul: Is this a radio drama?

Sakuma: Are you going to do a hero story?

Iwamoto: (ignores) Next, Date-san.

Sakuma: Something queen-like would be nice.

Iwamoto: Like a Persian cat?

Raul: That’s nice! It’s elegant!

Iwamoto: How about a Russian Blue?

Abe: Hee~ how stylish!

Miyadate: Is it “kanashimi blue” (sad blue)?

Sakuma: (singing) kanashimi ni, kuchibi~ru yo~sete~

Miyadate: (satisfied smile)

Mukai: Meme suits the big cat type.

Meguro: Oh! What kind?

Watanabe: There’s no cat like that!

Sakuma: Then, how about a black panther?

Fukazawa: How about a jaguar? Jaguar.

Sakuma: Well, it belongs to the cat family.

Abe: What would Koji be? How about a Scottish Fold?

Watanabe: Doesn’t it sound like a tissue name?

Raul: Kyahahaha!

Mukai: Then I’m a Su-Scottish... Foldy!

All members: Ahahahaha!

Watanabe: You kept stuttering (laughs).

Fukazawa: Oh gosh, that was cute. If that is so then Shota’s (cat) was better.

Mukai: Why!? (upset) Then I’ll be a stray cat! I’ll go to different houses. A crossbreed stray cat!

Fukazawa: Now that that’s over, Shota will be the Scottish Fold after all!

Watanabe: Then I’ll be the tissue.

Abe: No, it’s not a tissue (laughs).

Sakuma: I’ve already picked Fukka’s. An Iriomote wildcat.

Meguro: Amazing! What is that?

Abe: Is it similar to a masked palm civet?

Sakuma: No, a masked palm civet is different~!

Abe: Sakuma really is knowledgeable! Amazing! That was informative!

Mukai: But there’s already a good one for Fukka-san! A cat-shaped robot!

To be laughing or crying this much, your heart too busy screaming these emotions is proof that you're working hard.

Johnny's West being my emotional support in 2023 is something I didn't expected at all but i'm loving it 💗
