I'd like for him to be in a drama with a strong character. Not a ncessaryly a violent type.
I mean a confident character type who's taking charge from day one and encounter other kind of obstacle.

I also want him in an action film because the fight scenes in hanadan were really convincing and so manly that I thought of him in a total cool movie

I also want him to challenge himself in more acting driven project like smile but not right now

What he needs now is something popular to get back on the public eye. That means he must be careful and read the scripts well because although he was really good in natsuniji, the direction, the editing and the pace were little too slow and confusing

Maybe, people don't want to see him as someone who's weak.
I think he should give them what they want, the Dos image and all and allow himself to be real from time to time. They see him as this larger than life idol.
He should perhaps let people dream.

And maybe he needed that "back to basics" phase (since his change of hairstyle) to recharge his batteries and move on stronger
