Japanese male star Kimura Takuya's height has become a topic of public discussion after recent photos captured him walking his dog on the street, igniting debates about his actual height. With the rise of K-POP in Japan in recent years, audience interest in celebrities' heights has increased. Discussions on Kimura's height were triggered by a comedian's anecdote about their encounter backstage, where Kimura appeared shorter than his reported height of 176 cm. The ongoing debate has spurred comparisons with Korean stars' tall figures, leading to increased scrutiny on Japanese celebrities' heights, despite Japan also having tall idol figures like Hayato Sano (185 cm), Atsushi Midera (183 cm), and Kimura's junior Rengo Meguro (185 cm).
