Here’s your chance. The BOF cast were in Japan just last April and they will be back there this September.

After two seasons of not being seen on the boob tube, Yamashita Tomohisa or Yamapi is back with a sort of sports drama entitled Buzzer Beat.

In the series, Yamapi is a salaryman who belongs to his company’s basketball team.  He’s weak under pressure when it comes to work and romance so despite having a girlfriend, he falls in love with another woman. Ahem…this storyline is sure intriguing huh?

He co-stars this drama with Keiko Kitagawa (The Fast and the Furius Tokyo Drift), Saki Aibu (Zettai Kareshi), Hideaki Ito (First Kiss) and Junpei Mizobata (Akai Ito.)

Buzzer Beat started airing last July 13 and is currently occupying the Monday slot at 9:00pm (Japan time).

Remember when we told you about F4′s appearance on the Japanese talk show SMAPxSMAP?

Well, the episode, which was shot during the cast’s promotional visit to Japan, has just been shown recently. Its original airing date was cancelled following Tsuyoshi Kusanagi’s arrest for suspicion of public indecency. He was actually caught naked and drunk in a park (What’s up with these Japanese men and their booze? ). For those who aren’t into J-pop, Kusanagi is a member of the famous Japanese idol group SMAP whose members host the talk show. All the shows featuring Kusanagi were taken off the air for a while, thus the F4 episode was cancelled. After issuing a public apology, Kusanagi has returned to television and apparently they decided to air the F4 episode last Monday.

Not really.

He’s actually joined by fellow F4 buddy Kim Hyun Joong in this just released MV of his latest solo Joon, Be Ok from T-Max’s new album.

As reported earlier, Hyun Joong took time from his busy schedule to make a cameo on this MV. I’ve been searching for the full video since last week but apparently it was just released yesterday.

I’m glad that Kim Joon is finally getting the spotlight he truly deserves. Such a lovely guy. And he actually sings and dances!

Watch all the hotness after the jump.
