FiVe White Day concert and Ohno's solo debut

Johnny's net concert section is beginning to look rather small now that most of the winter concerts have wrapped up. But it did get an addition for its Junior band FiVe. They will be holding a White Day concert in Osaka on March 14th. White Day is a day that was created in Japan to correspond with Valentine's Day, as Valentine's Day in Japan isn't the same as other parts of the world. Valentine's Day is for girls to give chocolates to the boys that they like and White Day is the day those boys give something back to the girl if they feel the same way. So there's a bit of a sweet meaning for this concert being on that day, that this is the band's return gift to all their female fans.

Also the rumor of Arashi will be singing the theme song for Ohno's drama isn't completely true according to the official promotional posters for the drama. The posters instead list Ohno, or more technically the poster lists Ohno's character, Yano Kenta, as the artist singing the theme song, which isn't much of a surprise as a drama with a premise as Uta no Onii-san's it's perfect for a solo song like that. The song's title is 曇りのち、快晴 (Kumori nochi, Kaisei). Of course this has spawned a new rumor that this will be released as a single on March 6th, which does seem rather likely but like usual I find it's better to wait for official confirmation for these things before completely buying into them.
