The "nice guy" in showbiz was arrested for harassing a young man, the crew reported shockin.g news

Known as a gentle and reserved person, this male singer surprised the audience when he was involved in a shockin.g scandal. His office also spoke out about the incident.

On March 28, Japanese media reported that male singer Atari Kousuke (45 years old) was arrested on suspicion of sexually harassing a young man in his 20s. The incident occurred at around 2:00 a.m. the same day at a public bathhouse in Shinagawa, Japan.

According to the source, Atari Kousuke was accused of sexually harassing the victi.m while she was sleeping. Very quickly, the young man reacted and reported to the staff at the facility, after which the police were called.

While the police are still investigating, the singer's social media team has released a statement regarding the allegations. They shared a post saying they will verify the information soon and provide more details as the investigation progresses.

The statement read: "Today, some media reported that Kousuke Atari was arrested. First of all, we would like to sincerely apologize to those affected. We also want to deeply apologize to fans and all those involved for causing great concern and inconvenience.

We have received information about the incident but are currently unable to contact the person involved and are in the process of verifying. We will update as soon as we have detailed information and hope to receive sympathy from everyone." In addition, this group also said that they have tried to contact the victi.m to handle the incident but have not been successful.

The above information surprised the audience because up until now, Atari Kousuke has been quite secretive, only focusing on his career and has not had any scandals. Many people expressed their anger and deep disappointment at the 45-year-old singer's illegal actions.

Atari Kousuke was born in 1980 in Kagoshima, Japan. While still a university student, the male singer received the rookie award from the Japan Folk Song Association. In 2006, he started his music career and rose to fame with the hi.t "Hana".

In 2008, Atari Kousuke performed the song "Nocturne", the Japanese version of the soundtrack of the movie "Lus.t, Caution". Besides, this male singer is also active in the Chinese market, singing many famous movie soundtracks and appearing in the movie "Cape No.7".

It is known that in Japan, first-time offenders are often given warnings and rarely punished with harsh punishments. Thus, it is likely that Atari Kousuke was only given a warning, but his public image will certainly be greatly affected.

Last year, the Japanese Cabinet Office released the results of an online survey of young people aged 16 to 29, showing that 10.5% of respondents said they had been harassed, with women accounting for 88%. Seventy percent of the harassment occurred in train station areas, including 62.8% in train cars. Street incidents accounted for 13%.

42.7% of the victims said they did not know how to handle the harassment because it was so unexpected. While the remaining 32.5% said they were too scared to take action. Notably, the survey also found that 80.4% of those who were harassed did not report the incident to train station staff or the police for fear of causing chaos.

Japan has long struggled with sexual harassment on public transport, such as touching or taking photos. To combat this public harassment, Japanese authorities have taken a number of measures, including tightening penalties and increasing se.x education in schools.

However, 56% of respondents felt that society has not dealt with sexual harassment cases seriously. In addition, 10.1% of respondents said that many people are still indifferent to this behavior.
