“まじか。。。 (Seriously…)”
KAITOU TANAKA, stage name KAITOU, English name: IKE. usually wears a gray shirt and black pants along with a white shark hoodie. Growing up, KAITOU was fascinated in ocean life. In elementary, he would often get teased because of his hoodie. At the time, he was extremely sensitive, and he took the bullying seriously, and became unconfident of himself, and thought about resorting to self-harm or even suicide, and cried to himself to sleep everyday. There was one day he couldn’t take it anymore. He put up a a rope, but as he got on the chair, something stopped him, so he stepped down. To this day, he didn’t know what stopped him. He was so scared of middle school, but when he got to middle school, he realized it wasn’t so bad and the bullying stopped. He started to mature in 7-8th grade and became more confident. That was where he met RIKUJI, he was his partner for a science project about ocean life. RIKUJI and KAITOU liked oceans together, and partnered up because they had similar hoodies. KAITOU knew he was the one. KAITOU and RIKUJI became really close fast. KAITOU knew his secrets and RIKUJI knew his. It was like his best friend! They debuted together in a K-Pop group called BAY6. One of KAITOU’s favorite memories was him and RIKUJI often going to the beach. RIKUJI’s parents would drive far to go to one beach, specifically the Chiyozaki Beach, off the coast of Nagoya. They’d use to hang out a lot over there. They would hang out anywhere they see on social media. Another one was where He and RIKUJI snuck out during midnight and go to their local konbini, a Japanese convenience store, and get Famichiki, FamilyMart’s boneless friend chicken, along with other snacks, and sit outside the steps, and talk whatever is on their minds. Often times they would go to omakases and conveyor belt sushi places around Nagoya, and even traveled to Tokyo for their time. They planned to be only be a duo in K/J-Pop called UMI, or ocean in Japanese. They decided to volunteer in the variety show, LOVESTRUCK. To this day, their bond is as strong as it can be. His representative color is gray.
