Kusanagi Tsuyoshi is best known as a member of SMAP, one of Japan's most iconic idol groups, which he was part of until the group's disbandment in 2016. Beyond his work with the group, he's built a solid career as an actor and singer, regularly appearing in TV dramas, variety shows, and films. He's one of those talents who managed to maintain real staying power across multiple entertainment formats—pretty typical of the bigger SMAP members, honestly.
