"The World is wide. You can paint your dreams and hopes freely."

Crossing the Sea for the first time at 13. It’s 7 years since that. Concerts around Asia, and acting together with an overseas cast… Having touched the world coming across many experiences, the 20-year-old Yamada Ryosuke wishes to fly to new places.

"The songs of people I don’t even know the names of, those voices can bring a smile on my face."

20th Birthday. “I’m sorry” from mother.

Born May 9th 1993 at 11.13pm, as the middle son of the Yamada family. Given the name “Ryosuke”, the young boy being brought up by loving parents, grew up to be a kindhearted young man who treasures his family more than anything else.

"As my 10th year in Johnny’s, I want to convey my gratitude."

On May 9th, Yamada had his 20th birthday. Embracing the joy of becoming an adult, but realizing it also brings more responsibility. This should be a special year. Yamada is strongly moved by the feelings of gratitude.

"Hesitating about solo debut. Words from friends that brought courage."

There’s a lot of things you get from a friendship, says Yamada. A heart more delicate than most others feels a lot of things being connected to other people. Sometimes supporting each other, sometimes clashing together, this is about that irreplaceable existence.

"Round face? Short? Even so, I can become beautiful."

The best word to describe Yamada Ryosuke would probably be “beautiful”. Things he does to be able to continue shining, things that will stir the sense of beauty… The new series conveying true feelings, part 2.

"From that rehearsal room… I’ve arrived here."

Yamada Ryosuke is speaking from his heart in this new series. Holding his favorite saxophone in his hands, as the first theme he’ll talk about “hard work”. It is what got Yamada to his center positition. The ability to great effort.
