Ah yes, 15 April 1988! Totally forgot the date. I thought it's Taichi Kokubun first in SMAP before Goro-chan...

ah, so it's debut..woha, so they had to wait 4-5 years until they could debut? *johnny holds them all back* XD
*marks date in calender* :victory:
thansk for teh quick info, I hope for a special *like v6 had*

More than 3 years, and only in 1993 (or is it 1994?) they got their first big hit with Hey Hey Ookini Maido Ari. And that's like their 12th single!

SMAP really had it rough in their early years. No wonder they got on so strong and solid since then. It's determination, perseverance and hardk work. I wonder if today's groups could maintain that foundation, now that they got everything fairly easy (with the exception of K8 of course).

Ya, bout 3 and a half years they just performed as a dancer... I tot their first big hit is their 10th single [$10]??? [$10] got a total sales of more than 312,000. Before that, their singles sales are below 250,000.

I think that they become a superstar after Mori left in Apr 1996, singles like Aoi Inazuma, Shake, Dynamite and etc... got a total sales of more than 700,000 and 800,000. Huh? Is it a destiny???

I am not saying that Mori is not good, I like Mori also. Feeling so sad when he left..

Just wish that SMAP 15th anniversary wont like the 10th anniversary. Goro had an incident with a police and makes SMAP 5-1. Many ppl din go 4 their concerts although they had bought a ticket. It makes me really afraid that SMAP will seperate, but luckily they r together again... :dancing:

So let us iwsh that there is no incident for SMAP this year... Ganbatte yo~

I'm really very sorry if this is going to break Goro fans' hearts. But this news just come out today, May 16th:

I'll translate a bit...

"Recently, Kanno Miho visits Inagaki's mansion almost everyday. During the Golden Week holiday, Kanno Miho was seen exiting Inagaki's mansion. Few days later, she was interviewed:

Reporter: We heard your marriage will soon be held??
Kanno: Anoo...for that question, please directly ask the agency office...
Reporter: How about your relationship with Inagaki? Is it going fine?
Kanno: Ee, hai...(Uhmm, yes...)*smiling*


As for myself...this is a very happy news for me...since I'm a fan of them both!^_^

OMG Taichichan was on Smap!!! O_O
well i like teh currect formations better XD
thansk for all the insight, very interesting to read about that. I heard too that Smap had to struggle a lot in their early days! :sweat:

Goro will get married ? ha , I thought it would never happen ! he's not the kind of men who gets engaged , with the rumours about him being VERY unloyal !? I've always thought : " what ? Goro gets married ? hahaha ... when pigs can fly ! " :hehe:

Which one is true anyway? Two weeks b4 it says that they break oredi. But now they r gonna get married... ??? Blur me...

Anyway if they r gotta get married then I would be glad then... Hehe Omedetou... :applaud:

Wow~ seems like most of the SMAP members r all married oredi.
The first one is Kimura, then Shingo, next Goro.
Huh? How bout the other two?
Know that Nakai oredi got a gf, Tsuyoshi??? :shocked:

Ano, Shingo is married?
I thought he just had a live-in girlfriend?

I heard that he is already married last year in July, but due to the Johnny's Company, the only thing he need to do is to keep this thing secret...

It depends on the definition of a hit. The sales of $10 was good and it certainly triggered a renewed interest in SMAP. But Hey Hey Ookini was actually the first single to ever make it to the Top10.
