Yua Mikami’s fame is undeniable, but when it comes to the men, Ken Shimizu is probably the most familiar name to many fans.
Once appearing very frequently and openly expressing his love for his work, Ken Shimizu recently gave an interview that surprised everyone.
After gradually reducing his activities since last October, Ken Shimizu finally decided to retire early starting this April, following in Yua Mikami’s footsteps.
Explaining his decision, he shared two main reasons that pushed him to take this step. First, the work environment has changed a lot, reducing much of the surprise and excitement he once felt in his job. More importantly, Ken admitted that while his female colleagues are becoming more attractive and beautiful, they are also becoming somewhat boring due to a lack of genuine emotion.
The second and most important reason that led to Ken Shimizu’s disappointment and decision to follow Yua Mikami is what drained his joy and enthusiasm for the job. Currently, Ken is taking a break and creating vlogs sharing his life during his free time. His next plans remain unknown.
You can clearly feel the disappointment and emptiness in Ken Shimizu’s words. This decision marks the end of his more than 20 years of dedication.
