KinKi Kids

KinKi Kids (キンキ キッズ, Kinki kizzu) is a Japanese duo consisting of Koichi Domoto and Tsuyoshi Domoto under the talent agency Johnny & Associates. Although the members share the same surname, the only relation they have to each other is that they both hail from the Kinki region, hence the duo's name. KinKi Kids was formed in 1993 and officially debuted on July 21, 1997.

KinKi Kids holds the Guinness World Records for having the most consecutive No.1 singles since debut (42 works) and the most consecutive years with a Japanese No.1 single (24 years, 1997 - 2020). They have 20 No.1 albums of which 14 are consecutive, making them the artist who has the third most No.1 albums in Japan. With 28 million physical copies, they are one of the best selling boy groups in Asian history and top 20 best-selling artists of all time in Japan. Since 1998, the duo has held 58 concerts in Tokyo Dome, making them the artist to hold the most concerts at the Dome.

For all their achievement in dramas and hosting, KinKi Kids is mostly praised for their music since they are able to self-produce and composed many songs despite being an idol group. The duo also actively participates in solo activities. Koichi stars in and directs SHOCK series, which is now the most-performed musical in Japan, while Tsuyoshi pursues his career as a singer-songwriter.
