“いいの。 (It’s okay.)”

HIROKA wears a black shirt with dominos as his hat, similar to 1X1X1X1, the ROBLOX myth. HIROKA was born in Sapporo in the Hokkaido Prefecture on Jul 9, 2001. Since he was born in a cold region, he grew up with the ability to survive dangerously low temperatures, down to 30° Fahrenheit (-1° C). HIROKA was mostly independent most of his life, going out and socializing and finding food, and best of all, playing with snow. He made a lot of friends in Japan, but when he grew older, he stopped talking to them. He stayed in Japan his whole life, until at 17, he decided to be an idol, and flew to Korea for training for 5 years. After 5 years, he was put into a survival show, hoping to get into a group, but lost. He became really emotional. Since he was good friends with BAIKOU and NIKO, they requested to make a sub-unit aside. JYPE agreed. HIROKA was in pre-debut 5X4, but he split, and now in a sub-unit of 5X4, neoru. BAIKOU and NIKO call him HIRO sometimes for short. HIROKA is set to have a Japanese comeback, under Warner Music Japan. After neoru activities, he will release an album called “ONCE A SNOWY DAY” featuring 6 songs. This album focuses on finding love in rough snowy weather, the snowy weather acting like a barrier.
