GACKT Official Twitter update. Translation below
The company name was changed from “Johnny’s” to “SMILE-UP” and it became a company responsible for compensation.
Apart from SMILE-UP,
Established a new agent company with Mr. Higashiyama and Mr. Inohara as president and vice president.
Will this be the future management company?
It seems that Okada-kun will also become independent,
In any form,
It is most important that talented artists move forward.
Without being bound by a name,
I hope that the fans will be able to support the team in a comfortable manner soon.
「ジャニーズ」から「SMILE-UP」に社名が変更され補償を担う会社になる。
SMILE-UPとは別に、
東山君と井ノ原君を社長と副社長に新たなエージェント会社設立し
そこが今後のマネージメント会社になるか。岡田くんも独立するようだが、
どんな形であれ、…— GACKT (@GACKT) October 2, 2023
