Reportedly, the two met a dinner party thrown by Amano Hiroyuki of comedy duo Kyaeen. They left the party on good terms and kept in touch, and the couple enjoys their driving date together.

About AKINA, Oki said, "She is amazing that she's been through so much hardships even more than I have. �Since she has had a lot of unpleasant and regrettable experiences, she is a very earnest person�as I can even count on her." Oki ended his announcement saying, "Isn't it fine for me to have this kind of happy news as an ordinary single man?"
