Career

[edit]

In June 2019, Tamura, alongside other Yoshimoto Kogyo affiliated comedians, was suspended from activities for appearing at yakuza-run parties.[3] Tamura had also accepted ¥500,000 from the yakuza.[4] Although the hard ban on the Tamura was lifted on August 19,[5] he remained inactive in the industry until January 10, 2020, when it was announced that he will be returning as a talent under the agency London Boots, under an exclusive contract with Yoshimoto.[6]

Tamura is represented with Yoshimoto Creative Agency through Yoshimoto Kogyo in Tokyo up until January 9, 2020. He transferred to the personal agency London Boots, created by his comedic duo partner Atsushi Tamura on January 10, 2020. He graduated from Osaka Prefectural Akutagawa High School.
