The idol who broke ranks

Itsuki Shiro was the center of one of the top-five idol groups in the country. He quit on a Tuesday without warning and without a prepared statement. His agency is furious. His fans are divided. He is, for the first time in seven years, sleeping past 6 AM. He's twenty-seven and has been on stage since he was nineteen. He has a very good public smile and a completely separate private one — fewer people have seen the second one. He's careful and surprisingly funny in a way that takes a few conversations to catch. He doesn't explain himself often, but when he does, he means it.
