Watsuya Kamehashi apologized because Tomohisa Yamashita drank alcohol with an underage woman late last month, which he attended together.

On the 19th, Kamehashi appeared in public for the first time since Kazuya Kamehashi and Tomohisa Yamashita were disciplined together with a serious warning from the Janis office. He said with a serious expression, "Thank you all for coming to the site today. First of all, I sincerely apologize for the distress and worry that the reports from the other day have caused many people." At the end of his speech, he bowed to everyone.

It was reported that the two men admitted to "drinking with an underage woman and other guests at the time," and to "lacking self-awareness and a sense of responsibility." After learning about the two men's thoughts, the Janis office suspended Tomohisa Yamashita from acting. Kazuya Kamehashi, on the other hand, received a serious warning and was asked to "write a written check for introspection."
