■ Ogi Yahagi scream! What is the tragedy that befell Uekusa just one week after buying a new car!?
Uekusa, who originally wasn't interested in 4WDs, went to see a Land Rover Discovery at the invitation of a friend. However, the moment he saw the real thing, he fell in love with its charm at first sight! He says he made a quick decision to buy his favorite maroon model. The incident occurred just one week after delivery. After watching a video of a Discovery driving intensely in the 'Camel Trophy,' which is said to be the toughest off-road race in the world, Uekusa was once again captivated by its tough coolness. Uekusa, who was deeply impressed thinking 'It can drive like this!', apparently took a surprising action right after that... The action was so shocking, and the tragic conclusion that followed, made the Ogi Yahagi duo unintentionally scream, 'Why would you do that~!' and 'Oh no~!' The full story of the unprecedented 'incident' that happened just 7 days after purchasing the new car will be revealed!!

■ How he entered the entertainment world and meeting Nikki & Higashi... also the love affairs of entertainers!?
Uekusa says about himself that he was originally shy and not good at appearing in front of people. The unexpected fact that he didn't apply himself for his debut and kept refusing to join even after passing the audition couldn't hide the surprise of the Ogi Yahagi duo. He revealed his honest feelings at the time, saying, '(Unlike now) back then, there were no boys who danced. Just seeing boys of my age dancing in the studio gave me goosebumps... I thought, 'I don't want to do this!'' The person he met early on after joining was Noriyuki Higashiyama. He looks back, 'There was a guy who was excessively pale and tall, and I thought he was beautiful. That was Higashi.'
