Profile
"It's all in good fun, right?"
Never to be seen without a smile, Kazuya is, to his core, a fun-loving individual. He delights in entertaining his peers, intentionally or not, and brushes off criticisms easily. Naturally affectionate, he’s unfazed by most displays of flirtation or hostility - usually, he returns them in jest. It’s all in good fun, right? If we’re all out here chasing our dreams, at least we should remember the journey fondly.
But his extroverted big brother persona is perhaps not as virtuous it seems. Conflict makes him excessively uneasy, and with a tendency to heap responsibility upon himself, Kazuya would sooner place harmony over the whole unfiltered truth. A few white lies usually don't hurt anyone, and often lying by omission just seems that much more comfortable for everyone. He rarely voices his disagreements, believing it fine to keep quiet if it makes the other party happy - even if it takes away from his own comfort and breeds a mild resentment in him.
It's just for a good show, right? Ah, never mind - the spotlight’s on! Just smile for the audience. You can worry about the rest later.

History
- Born in Shinjuku to a CEO of an influential tech company and a gifted lawyer
- Father painted a charismatic image, but was really kind of deadbeat and cold; Kazuya learned to moderate his behaviour in order to keep the peace.
- Father wasn’t terribly fond of his son pursuing music - if anything, he seemed hostile to the idea. Kazuya could only practice his favourite dances and songs while he wasn’t home. Thankfully, that was pretty often.
- When Kazuya’s ~11, his father is caught up in a large corruption/exploitation scandal. He loses his position, and Kazuya’s mother files for divorce nearly immediately after.
- More free to pursue his interests, Kazuya enrols in a performing arts school in Tokyo
- However, his school was rather small in a very competitive city, and thus was shut down
- Tenkyuu scouts Kazuya shortly after
- During his third year, he becomes the leader of the subunit 'La Partage'.
Miscellaneous
Trivia
- The kanji from his first name (冬也) mean 'winter' and 'to be', respectively. His father chose something strong and cold sounding for his eldest son. It doesn't exactly suit him well, but Kazuya's wearing it gracefully.
- Favourite colour is golden yellow.
- His music style generally falls into a "bright" and a "dark" side. The bright side consists of funk, big band and citypop; the dark side consists of smooth jazz-influenced R&B. His voice is baritone to bass in range, and has a warm, open/oral timbre. (VC: dongdang)
- Plays acoustic and electric bass. He frequently uploads short covers to social media.
- Speaks Japanese, a decent amount of English, and very rudimentary Korean.
- Pathological commitment to the bit.
Family
- Mother: Iwasaki, Mamiko (51). Lawyer.
- Father: ████████, █████ (██). Disgraced CEO. Estranged.
