Many plan their new year’s eve around countdowns.

For those in Japan or have NHK, there’s the Kohaku Uta Gassen.

And this year is the second year that Arashi is hosting.

My favorite of the shots is that of Nino.

Last year, I was in Taipei counting down the seconds to 2011 in front of Taipei 101. This year… I’ll count down in front of the TV.

Let’s count down with Arashi!
