1. Profile of Ikuto Kawai

 

Kawai Fumito was born on October 20th, 1987 in Tokyo. He joined Johnny & Associates in 1999 and began his career as a member of the group ABC. In 2008, Ryosuke Hashimoto joined the group, forming ABC-Z, and they debuted in 2012 with the DVD single "Za ABC ~5stars~."

On September 21, 2023, Kawai announced that she would be leaving ABC-Z on December 21 of the same year.

6. The real reason? A statement on YouTube

 

In April 2024, Kawai had a conversation with his junior, Kikuchi Fuma (timelesz), on his YouTube channel, in which he revealed his feelings behind his decision to leave the group.

"I state that my reason is that I want to become an MC, but there are other reasons as well. I can't say everything, but I felt that I had reached my limits," he said, revealing that it was not simply a decision he made to pursue a dream, but rather a decision he made after struggling with his desire to protect the group.

Kawai has many years of experience as the MC of "The Shonen Club" and is currently a regular on Friday nights on "Gogosuma."

Given his bright personality and light-hearted conversation skills, there's a good chance that this dream will come true.
