Ohayo SMAP!
Sept.27-Oct.1,1999

Sept.27(Mon):
Yes, Ah, I will talk about the activities of SMAP from October this week all week. Starting from my activities, I will do the drama "Kiken na Kankei"(The dangerous relationship). The main casts are Mr. Etsushi Toyokawa and Ms. Norika Fujiwara. As the title states, the drama has some danger in its story line. It is quite a mysterious drama.(laughing) It is a suspense involving the triangle relationship. Um. It is not only the love triangle but also the triangle of human relationships. This is quite new type of drama. Oh, well, I am quite biased about this drama since I am doing it. However, it is quite a interesting drama. I really felt like "Ah, I got to do this drama" when I just red the scripts. The scripts were very interesting. The main character is a criminal and my character will chase this criminal played by Mr. Toyokawa. Um.

Yes, I have been talking about the activities of SMAP from October this week. I should talk about the activities of the lest of the members briefly. Ah, first of all, Kimura kun is shooting a movie in Hong Kong. The movie will be open sometime next year. I heard that shooting this movie takes a quite effort and Kimura kun is having a hard time. Tsuyoshi, Kusanagi kun will do the drama titled "Team" with Mr. Nishimura who appeared on Furuhata. This sounds like a comedy. What else...Shingo, Katori kun is also shooting a movie "Juvenile". It is more like a science fiction adventure. I know how hard to shoot a movie from my personal experience. I think he is also having a hard time doing it. Then, Nakai kun...I guess he is doing MC this fall, too. (laughing) Basically, he has many regular TV shows this season. Um.

Sept.29(Wed):
Yes, ah, I have been talking about our activities from October this week. I talked about other members' activities very briefly yesterday. I also talked about my drama. This year I have done the stage play "Geshoto Kitan"(The Mystery in Moon Crystal Island) and the movie "Saimin"(Hypnoses). Well, I like both stage play and movie. I am glad that I did both successfully this year. Of course, the fall drama is still in the production. But, I hope to do both movie and stage play next year. I will do the stage play for sure. It will not be "Geshoto Kitan" but it will be either a new play or a classic play. I have not decided yet. I would like to work as an actor on the stage again next year. So, please look forward.

Sept.30(Thu):
Yes, ah, I have been talking about our activities from October. Let's talk about SMAPXSMAP. "The Keitai Amadeus" skit was aired lately. That was quite maniacal skit. Some people don't know about this skit. This is a skit, or a game, using cell phone. (Translator' s note: Many kind of rings can be input on the cell phones in Japan. Many of these rings are a part of song or theme song. The skit was a game making a guess about one member's cell phone ring. Goro's cell phone ring was a theme song from his favorite animation. Unfortunately, other members made a correct guess and Goro lost one of his friends' phone numbers in the memory as a penalty.) Um. I lost in this game. I wonder...I would like to hear your opinion. What kind of skit do you like in SMAPXSMAP? Well, the last year, it was my Gorokumi chan. I did that quite often. The special effect make-up was really difficult to put. It took 2 hours each time. To tell you the truth, we made a new character with a special effect make-up. We just finish taping the skit. It will probably aired in sometime October. Please look forward this new character which will take a place of Gorokumi chan,.

Oct.1(Fri):
Well, I talked about SMAPXSMAP a little bit yesterday. Ah, there will be SMAPXSMAP Special in October. This is the 4th time...speaking of the special, we always do Mr. Fuji climbing as the penalty. Thank you for cheering for me at the 3rd special. I won the game and I avoided climbing to Mr. Fuji. This year's Mr. Fuji was Kusanagi kun and Kimura kun. Hah! I won the game! After all, I was fighting to death to win the game to avoid Mr. Fuji. I felt sorry for Kusanagi kun. Normally, people will not climb Mr. Fuji twice. But, Kimura kun did really well. He didn't need a cane and made it to the top in very short time. In the past, this climbing made the members closer. I wonder if Kusanagi kun and Kimura kun got closer. (laughing). Oh well, just thinking about climbing Mr. Fuji makes me shiver. Um. I will win the next game, too.
