Yuta Kishi to leave Johnny & Associates in September

25 May – Former King & Prince member Yuta Kishi recently announced that his last day with Johnny & Associates would be 30 September.

The singer, who is one of the three members of King & Prince who left the group earlier, shared the news on his blog, saying, "Until then, I will try my best to accomplish all that I can, so please look after me!"

It is noted that Yuta Kishi left the group alongside Sho Hirano and Yuta Jinguji on 22 May, though the group itself has not been disbanded and will be operating as a duo consisting of Ren Nagase and Kaito Takahashi.

The group made their last appearance as a five-member on NHK Sogo's "Venue 101", performing several of their hit songs including "Cinderella Girl".

Both Sho and Yuta Jinguji have already left Johnny & Associates.
