He had consecutive hits with the Shiseido Anessa CM song "Yume no Soto e" and "Shiranai." His albums also topped the Oricon charts, and while his popularity soared with lead roles in stage plays and movies, he was hospitalized with a subarachnoid hemorrhage at the end of 2012. Although he returned to work a few months after surgery, the condition recurred, forcing him into a long period of rest. The author, who has voraciously pursued music, acting, and writing, saying, "I want to create something interesting." From the behind-the-scenes of "creation hell" during album production and filming to his battle with illness, which he tried to overcome with erotic fantasies, to his complete recovery. An essay that chronicles a tumultuous three years, a mix of absurdity, tension, eroticism, and philosophy, with no boundaries whatsoever. This book is a collection of his popular serialization "Ginza Tetsudo no Yoru" from the magazine *GINZA*, plus new writings." Thank you for looking.
