Japanese boy band King & Prince member 永瀨廉 recently held a fan meeting in Taiwan and revealed his hope to hold a concert as a group. He admitted to having body image anxiety privately and even stated that he is not good at cooking, not even being able to fry an egg. Although he is praised as a "national treasure level face," he still feels insecure about his appearance. Upon his first visit to Taiwan, 永瀨廉 was excited about the local new experiences and looks forward to returning in the future to meet with fans again. He also expressed his enjoyable experience participating in the New Year's Eve special program and hopes to hold a concert in Taiwan one day.
Recently, Ren Nagase, a member of the Japanese boy band King & Prince, held two fan meetings in Taiwan. After the events, he accepted media interviews and shared his true self offstage. He revealed that he actually has anxiety about his appearance and has no cooking skills, admitting that he can't even fry an egg, jokingly saying, "I didn't know that heating an egg makes it hard." This showcases his approachable and humble side.
In 2020, Nagase won first place in the "National Treasure Handsome Guy Ranking" voted by the female fashion magazine "ViVi," accumulating over 450,000 votes, setting a historical record. He is relatively familiar with how people evaluate his looks, often being praised for his nose and facial contour; he feels confident about these features, but he also candidly mentioned that he's been a bit concerned about having uneven eyes lately, completely unaware of the reason.
In the series "It's Difficult to Love a Rich Boy," he plays the role of a "life idiot" from a wealthy family. In reality, he is not skilled at cooking, cannot even fry an egg, and lacks the motivation to learn, often resulting in him making "dark cuisine." However, he recently took on an endorsement for dumplings, stating he has learned to fry dumplings and feels quite satisfied with that.
On his first visit to Taiwan, Nagase found this beautiful island quite refreshing, noting that he could see many novel things, whether on the street or in vehicles, like the numerous motorcycles and signs filled with Chinese characters. At the fan meeting, he felt the enthusiasm of the fans, admitting that he was supposed to get them excited, but it was actually their excitement that made him more thrilled, even wanting to compete with fans to see who could be more excited.
He also mentioned that if he has free time, he wants to visit the night market, hoping to go to some basic introductory spots for his first time and, if time allows, seek opportunities to buy souvenirs. Finally, Ren Nagase looks forward to the day when King & Prince can hold a concert in Taiwan, saying, "It will no longer be everyone going to Japan to see us, but rather we coming to Taiwan to see everyone."
