hmmm... saw the trailer of a show that's going to be aired.... Home and Away...

was just wondering if the guy in the show, Koizumi Koutaro is the son of Japanese Prime Minister, Koizumi Junichiro.... :crazy:

saw a pic of him b4... and tot the guy in the show looked distinctly like the Prime Minister's son....

Yeah, he is.

Woot? Koutaro Koizumi, the son of the PM? Woot? I think I've seen his appearance in a few dramas such as Tail of Happiness
http://jdorama.com/drama_656.htm and other dramas too, can't recall now. I bet he used his father's influence to get the roles.
How about Kyoko Koizumi? :mrgreen:

haha..... that's probably an added advantage....
but he's not such a bad looker himself so......
hadn't seen any of his shows, so can't comment on his acting....
will have to catch Home & Away.... :mrgreen:

I had the chance to leech Home&Away series off ftp. I didn't leech it cos it turned out to be a chinese vcd version which meant no Eng subs as well :(
Can't read nor understand Chinese. No sense in watchin the series without understandin the story. I wanted to see a Miho Nakayama drama at least once.

yo Pemu....

your wait may soon be over....
cos' they are showing Home & Away on Channel 8 (first ep tomolo 7.8.03).... so there may be a chance that it will be available on Jem's soon.... :mrgreen:
and it will be in Eng subtitles....

Yay :applaud: Let's hope Jem does capture the the series!!! Thanks for the info!

Hehe! There is a sayin here, "Like father, like son". It seems Koutaro didn't follow his father's footstep to study political science to be become a diet someday. Instead of that he chose an actor's career. How lovely!
Japanese children are usually forced to follow their parents' decisions.
"Take over my business"-thing still exists. More dramas from Koutaro, so we're able judge whether he's up to the task or not:)

hey, that's really true!!!
it probably goes to show that PM Koizumi is a democratic kind of father..... or perhaps Koutaro is not the only son.... maybe the younger one... that's why he's got more freedom when it comes to career choice.... :crazy:

He's actually the elder son, he has a younger brother. His father's a fan of X-Japan, pretty cool eh?

PS: I think Koutaro's cute. Ok, maybe in a mickey mouse kind of way. :love_eyes:

Maybe Koutaro defied his father decision, his father cut the ties. They seem like a happy father/son relationship as shown in public. In reality their relationship is "ok", not too warm. It'll be a scandal if the media finds out. Another scenario

Koutaro looks like Mickey? I say Sylvester jr. just like the one in kook05's signature, cute :hug:

yup, former PM now

i'm surprised koizumi's been relegated to the last pgs of the this forum - didn't expect that

koizumi's son is an actor...it's only fitting since his dad is the japanese elvis.

So, it's true? He gave up being PM to pursue a career as an Elvis impersonator in Las Vegas?

And Shindou, what's with all the thread archaeology? You must have been very bored! :nut:
