Actor Ichihara Hayato will be releasing his first photobook in two years on September 29th. Titled "VOLTAGE", Ichihara will show off his comical side by appearing in a space suit.

In mid-June, Ichihara went to Los Angeles to shoot the photobook and suggested, "I want to express the feeling of traveling to grasp something by wearing a space suit, and act like I'm going to space." Ichihara bought a space suit for about 2,400,000 yen (approximately 31,000 USD) �from Wonder Works, a company in charge of Hollywood's stage design and costumes. While drawing the attention of many Americans, the actor ran around the streets downtown.

Ichihara also held photoshoots in Mexico and Japan, and took part in the editing process as well. He promoted the photobook saying, "I didn't forget to have a good time.�It turned out to be a wonderful product."
