Satoshi Ohno reunites with former actress after ten years of forced separation

The leader of Arashi, Satoshi Ohno, 45 years old, was caught by Weekly Bunshun magazine secretly meeting with a former actress with whom he allegedly had a relationship in 2015. The two were separated for ten years by the former Johnny & Associates, the agency that controlled the artist’s career. The reunion took place shortly before their last live performance on the group’s national tour.

The discovery gained special attention due to its context. Ohno is in a professional transition phase after announcing his intention to leave Arashi and move to Ilha from Miyako. The group, formed in 1999, went on hiatus at the end of 2020 and is in the midst of the “ARASHI LIVE TOUR 2026 ‘We are ARASHI'” tour, which marks their return to the stage after approximately six years.

Dez years of separation by the agency

The former actress, identified only as A-ko, was reportedly separated from Ohno by the former Johnny & Associates a decade ago. A friend close to the woman revealed to the magazine the emotional impact of the reunion: “The two were separated by the former Johnny & Associates ten years ago. A-ko was very happy with this reunion.”

The context of this forced separation goes back to the agency’s strict policies, which historically controlled all aspects of its talents’ personal lives, including romantic relationships. Para idols and artists under contract, maintaining public relationships was a violation that could result in severe punishments or even removal from the industry.

The secrecy surrounding the meetings suggests caution on both sides, even though Ohno is undergoing a professional transition that offers him greater personal freedom than in previous decades.

Ohno’s representative office was contacted by the magazine for comment on the matter, but did not provide a response by the publication deadline.
