When he was five, Tomohisa, his mother, younger sister and father moved to America. After six months, his father left leaving Tomohisa the man about the house. Growing up, he despised his father for leaving - especially his little sister who was heartbroken. Every time Tomohisa thought about it, it angered him and he despised his father even more and he started dancing, which made him forget about his troubles. His grandmother made a promise to him that if he kept in school and done well then she would let him go on a dance course. Several years later at the age of 22, Tomohisa now runs a dance class.

Tomohisa now lives in Culver City, where he runs his dance studio along with being a part-timer in his mothers shop. He enjoys surfing whenever he can, which gives him his sexysexy body.



Kato Shigeaki (or Shigeaki Kato) was born and brought up in Osaka for most of his life and once he reached the age of 17, his parents decided they wanted to move over to the United States - California to be exact. Shige initially did not want to leave his beloved home due to his school, friends and life but soon decided a new life may not be so bad afterall. While living in Japan, Shige was guitarist for a rock band that performed at small venues, his dream was much bigger once he arrived in the US (with his parents and best friend - Keiichiro), hoping to start his own rock band. Now at the age of 20, Shigeaki studies law at one of the local universities.



Koyama Keiichiro grew up in a small, family run ramen shop in Tokyo and spent most of his 23 years of life there until he moved to the US in 2004 with his friend Shigeaki and Shige's parents as his own family didn't want to leave. Whilst growing up, Koyama dreamed to become an actor and he achieved that dream at the age of 15, although at the time they were only commercials and small things like that. By the age of 17, Keiichiro was starring in dramas and at 19 he got his first, decent roll as a supporting actor but soon after moved to California. Although he hasn't acted in a few years, Keiichiro hopes to start his career once more. Keiichiro also helps out at the local kindergarten when he isn't auditioning for something or other.



Takizawa Hideaki, born in Tokyo, brought up everywhere. Coming from a rich family who were
getting richer by the minute, Hideaki (and his brother and sister) moved around alot - living in various
countries for a year at the most each time. His mother didn't really bother with him and his siblings,
bringing their nanny to take care of them. When he was 16, he got fed up of having to move around all the
time and decided to stay in their current location - England. Hideaki lived there with his older siblings for six years and moved to the US with his grandparents when he was 22.

Now age 25, Hideaki is a full time model and acts from time to time. When he's not working and whenever
he gets the chance, Hideaki spends his time surfing, walking his dog, reading or going out with friends.



Nagase was born and raised in Kanagawa with his sister and parents. When he turned five years, his mother had passed away leaving him with just his father, sister and grandfather. From that point on, Nagase had found himself in trouble most of the time - be it at school or with kids from other Yakuza clans, when he turned thirteen, he dropped out of school - not that he had the attention span for it in the first place. With aims to take on his fathers gang, Coming up for his 29th birthday, he left Japan to visit his older sister. While he was there, his father called him and told him he couldn't take over the gang until he graduated.



Tegoshi was (also) born and raised in Kanagawa. Being an only child and ridiculously cute, Tegoshi was always spoilt by his family and friends. As Tegoshi was growing up, he'd regularly attend karaoke with friends and sung most of time. When Tegoshi turned nineteen, he moved over to Los Angeles to study and to improve his English. Now twenty, Tegoshi works part-time at a game store - usually in a moogle costume.
