TOKYO -- Japan's beloved pop idol group SMAP bowed out Monday with the final episode of the long-running television program "SMAPxSMAP," disheartening many fans.
Positioned as the group's "final stage" of public appearances together, the program featured videos from the past two decades as well as a clip of the five members clad in black tuxedos singing hit song "Sekai ni Hitotsu dake no Hana" ("A Flower Unlike Any Other in the World") last month.
