DocumentaLy 6,033 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 These are Japanese netizen comments. For those who don't know, One Direction is quite popular in Japan. They're probably the most popular Western act in Japan these past few years, possibly even the biggest non-Japanese act there. They won Western Artist of the Year at the 2014 and 2015 Japan Gold Disc Awards, meaning that their sales were the best out of all the Western acts in Japan. ___________________________________ 1. 匿å 2015/03/26(木) 08:20:55 +652In his statement Malik announced "I want to relax outside of the spotlight and become a regular 22 year old with time to myself," expressing his reason for dropping out of the group. "Louis, Liam, Harry and Niall are my lifelong friends. From now on they continue being the number one group in the world," he stated. He also released a statement of apology to his fans.3. 匿å 2015/03/26(木) 08:23:13 [é€šå ±] +1176Gyaaaa (　ﾟдﾟ) And Zayn was my type (　ﾟдﾟ)4. 匿å 2015/03/26(木) 08:23:18 [é€šå ±] +177I don't like One Direction that much5. 匿å 2015/03/26(木) 08:23:32 [é€šå ±] +620For some reason I am reminded of Candies*...*Japanese idol group from the 70s that left the music business to become normal girls.6. 匿å 2015/03/26(木) 08:23:42 [é€šå ±] +1197Huh?
