New Year's celebrations are often marked by joy, reflection, and a bit of creativity, particularly for the members of Timelesz, who are making headlines with their special broadcasts and culinary contributions this festive season. Matsushima Sato and Kiki Fuma are both gearing up to entertain their fans, young and old, bringing their flair to the airwaves as they ring in the new year.
On December 30th, Matsushima Sato was featured on the radio show 'Recommen!', sharing insights about his newfound friendship with fellow actor Ohashi Ryusei. Their close bond developed after working together on the drama 'Kurenai Sasu Life,' which Matsushima noted was significant for strengthening their relationship. During the show, Matsushima revealed, "I think the talents I’ve spent the most private time with this year might be Ryusei. We've been going out to eat and visit cafés together." This candid comment reflects the genuine growth of their friendship, which has flourished off-screen.
Listeners were treated to delightful anecdotes as Matsushima shared how Ryusei often receives quick likes on his Instagram posts before the fanbase even has the chance. Matsushima joked, "I wasn’t really trying to pay attention; it just so happens I frequently see Ryusei's posts pop up." Their playful rapport was palpable, showcasing not just camaraderie but genuine admiration, shedding light on the behind-the-scenes connection nurtured during their collaboration.
He also expressed enthusiasm for future projects with Ryusei, saying, "I hope to work with Ryusei again on another piece." It’s clear the interaction and bonding during 'Kurenai Sasu Life' had lasting effects, allowing Matsushima to feel comfortable and open with his colleague.
Meanwhile, on January 1st, Kiki Fuma captivated audiences with his appearance on 'Sekacchi Benkyou Genjitsu SP,' focusing on clever adaptations of traditional New Year’s food. Fuma excitedly introduced ingenious cooking tips for transforming leftover dishes, particularly featuring the beloved Japanese rice cake, mochi. He explained how adding soy sauce could prevent mochi from sticking to the grill, making for perfect holiday treats without the hassle.
One particularly delicious recipe he shared revolved around using leftover 'datemaki,' or rolled sweet omelet. Fuma's mouth-watering suggestion was to whip up French toast by pan-frying the omelet until golden and adding cinnamon for flavor. "The outside becomes crispy, and the inside remains fluffy! It combines the buttery flavor with the mild sweetness of the omelet beautifully!" he enthused, likely making mouths water among his listeners.
The show highlighted not just the nostalgia of traditional Japanese New Year meals but also encouraged culinary creativity, making leftover food exciting rather than mundane. Fuma encouraged viewers to embrace their inner chefs and experiment with their leftovers, offering alternatives to the typical post-holiday meal.
Both Matsushima and Fuma have successfully leveraged this New Year season to celebrate creativity, connection, and the joys of friendship. Their cheerful endeavors remind fans of the importance of community and collaboration, both on and off-screen. It is moments like these, during holiday celebrations, where the essence of human connection is felt—whether through shared meals or deepening friendships. With their broadcast contributions, the two have managed to resonate with their audience and convey their messages of growth, learning, and togetherness.
Fans can look forward to more exciting interactions and culinary adventures from both Matsushima Sato and Kiki Fuma, as they continue to explore new realms of creativity together. The upcoming year holds much promise, not just for these young talents but for audiences eager to follow their journeys.
