KAT-TUN just started their tour “KAT-TUN LIVE TOUR 2010 
WORLD BIG TOUR” at the Tokyo Dome on the 16th, without Akanishi Jin.  
The president of Johnny’s Entartainment, 
Johnny Kitagawa showed up at the concert and talked about Jin. 
According to Kitagawa, there are plans for Jin to perform 
as a solo artist in the U.S next year, 
so there is no plan for Jin to go back to KAT-TUN for now.

However, the final decision on Jin’s official withdrawal from KAT-TUN 
will be made after his tour in the U.S. this fall.

Kitagawa said, “I’m only thinking about Jin’s success in the U.S.  
It’s not good if I spoil him by telling him 
‘come back to KAT-TUN if you fail in the U.S.’  
All I can do for him is to support whatever he wants to do in the U.S.”

Kitagawa also stated that there is no need 
to worry about KAT-TUN’s disbandment.
