Both Tamura’s held a press conference at WALL & WALL in Omotesando on January 30th and Tamura Ryo said he would like to do an NHK Taiga or morning drama.  Because his grandpa still loves NHK.  But Tamura admitted that he needs to take things one step at a time.

Both men were asked if they saw Miyasako Hiroyuki’s YouTube video yesterday and Atushi said he didn’t watch it.

Ryo was asked if he had a grudge against Miyasako because of what happened and he said he had none.

The location of where the press conference was held, was the same location where Tamura and Miyasako Hiroyuki held their tearful apology press conference last July.  Tamura said he chose the location for a restart.
