The suspects, singer and actor Taguchi Junnosuke (33), former member of popular idol group KAT-TUN, and actress Komine Rena (38), were arrested on the 22nd on suspicion of violating the Cαnnabis Control Law.

Taguchi and Komine were arrested by the Naɾcotics Control Department on May 22 for alleged possession of cαnnabis. The Naɾcotics Control Department conducted a house search at the couple's home.

They are currently being questioned by the Naɾcotics Control Department in Chiyoda, Tokyo.

Taguchi signed with Johnny & Associates in 1999 and joined KAT-TUN in 2001. The group debuted in 2006 with the million-selling single "Real Face". Taguchi left KAT-TUN in 2016 and continued activities as an actor and singer.

Not even surprised.
There are probably a lot more out there. I want them all to be dragged out of the woodwork.

[+458 / -19]
Can't be helped 'cause ~He wanted to live his life on the edge~.
*Giri giri de itsumo ikite itai kara (lyrics from Real Face)

2. [+38467 / -4688]
Yeah, he's completely finished.
I guess he'll be kicked out of his agency, then come back in a few years time...
The entertainment world is said to be too lenient.
If you investigate all their friends, I think you'll find more users.

[+221 / -1]
So Celebrity "T" was him?
They're both over.

[+83 / -31]
Did Pierre Taki snitch on him?

3. [+33773 / -3709]
I want the darkness of the entertainment world to be exposed.

[+45 / -10]
Looking forward to seeing who will be next!

4. [+11800 / -139]
So even he's following in the footsteps of Tanaka Koki...

[+534 / -10]
First thing I thought was
Him too?

[+350 / -75]
So next is Akanishi?

5. [+11876 / -188]
So it was right for him to leave the agency (Johnny's)

6. [+10619 / -213]
Even idols will be called "suspect".

7. [Comment deleted]
His life is over.
Taguchi, in the end, his life came tumbling down after leaving KAT-TUN. If the couple was using it together, there was probably no one to stop them. But they were caught together, and will be released together. It seems like it will be difficult for them to break their addiction.

8. [+9786 / -253]
It would have been disastrous for the group if he hadn't been a "former" member.
There are many temptations in the entertainment world but not succumbing would've been much better for them financially. Why did they do it?
I don't get why you'd want to, there's too much to lose.

9. [+10061 / -472]
So, as I thought, there was a reason he left
My heart goes out to the current members.

10. [+6527 / -168]
I was so surprised, I went "UwaiAAA!" but I also thought,
"I knew it!"

11. [+6440 / -188]
If he had quit KAT-TUN, worked honestly, then finally married Komine-san -- who he'd kept waiting for years...
Everyone would've had a good impression of them, but instead, he quits KAT-TUN, goes solo, and randomly gets arrested for dɾᴜgs.
He seriously messed up.

12. [+5959 / -185]
He spun a moving tale that he retired because he wasn't allowed to get married, but really, it was this.
There might be a lot more arrested Johnny's to come.

13. [+5435 / -90]
Can't believe they took dɾᴜgs together. They're done.

14. [+5366 / -99]
He didn't retire, he was forced to retire.

15. [+3884 / -64]
Even when Kamenashi, Ueda, and Nakamaru accepted his retirement with tears in their eyes...

There's still more to come

3.  [+5086 / -19]
He's done it now

4.  [+8310 / -33]
It was a flash announcement on the news!!
So that's why he left. Taking dɾᴜgs together, they're over.

5.  [+3299 / -29]
I'm shocked!!!!

7.  [+2084 / -31]
Knew it.

14. [+1840 / -52]
Not surprised.

32. [+3965 / -10]
The perfect example of a person's downfall.

33. [+3640 / -63]
Uwaa
KAT-TUN's cursed

38. [+5160 / -34]
This is the result of living life too much on the edge LOOOOL

46. [+3643 / 12]
So these two had that type of relationship.

48. [+1700 / -24]
Is Eternal okay?!
*Akanishi Jin

54. [+71 / -1232]
Was this Taguchi??
"F, a national talent that everyone knows. They're already counting down to his arrest. He was searched by the Naɾcotics Control Department last summer, their judgement was "grey that's nearing black". But if he were arrested, the social impact would be too great. It was decided that "They will not arrest him until they have conclusive evidence that he's black". If he is arrested, it will cause the largest chaos in history." (Aforementioned Investigation Personnel)

Taguchi isn't a national talent.

55. [+3505 / -7]
Seriously!?
I thought he quit to get married
So it was that kind of relationship...

66. [+787 / -14]
Now, who will be next?
