KEIJI’s Achilles tendon injured
Posted by glacial07 on May 27, 2009
EXILE member KEIJI will no longer be participating in EXILE’s current tour, due to rupturing his left Achilles tendon.
During a performance on the 24th in Hiroshima, KEIJI felt a pain in his left foot and left the stage in the middle of the concert. After being taken to a hospital and getting examined, he was diagnosed with a ruptured Achilles tendon that will require several months of treatment.
On May 9th, EXILE started their nationwide tour, “EXILE LIVE TOUR 2009 ‘THE MONSTER’,” which covers 30 performances in 9 cities. The remaining thirteen members of EXILE plan to continue the tour without KEIJI, all the way until the final day on August 2nd.

However with this news, Makidai confirmed on his radio program that KEIJI will still continue to film EXILE’s variety shows.
Let us hope for his fast recovery.
