Fans were upset with Travis Japan's Genta Matsuda, who is "unbelievable before idols! Allegations of "smoking" on the slopes while on the job!
The video was shot at Yakushi Ski Resort in Niigata Prefecture
and is titled "[Tokimeki Alert: Breast-aching Championships on the
Slopes]. After the members skied or snowboarded, they would say heartbreaking
lines to the camera.
Directly hitting the ski resort about whether or not smoking
is allowed.
The scene in question occurred at the timing of Matsukura Kaito's performance. While he was skiing, the other members were also pulled into the wipe, and Genta Matsuda was shown with his right hand over his mouth. He was holding it as if covering it with his right hand, so it is not clearly visible what he was holding, but immediately afterward, white smoke came out of his mouth. The first time I saw him, I thought he was a bit of an idol, but he was a very good one. Some fans were harsh and saddened, saying, "It's not that I don't like it because I've always supported him, it's just a shame, it's an important time for him, so do your best. Some fans were harsh and sad, saying, "I'm sorry that she didn't like it, but it's an important time for her. However, including the fact that it was during filming, I think it does not present a good image of her as an idol.
When we checked
with Yakushi Ski Resort, where the photo was taken, they replied, "On
regular business days, smoking is prohibited except in designated smoking
areas, but when the slopes are reserved for private use, there are no other
guests, so we think it is fine for people to smoke freely. Of course, littering
cigarette butts is prohibited, but smoking itself is not prohibited. The answer was that there was no problem in terms of rules, but
the image of the restaurant should be respected, especially in the popular
business.
