The very first ballet company, the Komaki Ballet Company, was established in 1946 under the name of “Tokyo Ballet”. The ballet cooperation between Mongolia and Japan first started as the founder of "Komaki Ballet" Company, Masahide Komaki invited the Mongolian People’s Actor, Hero of Labor, and State Prized B.Jamiyandagva to participate in an international ballet competition held in Japan in the early 1970s.

The third generation director of So Kikuchi made a visit to Mongolia in 2002, where he invited Merit Actor D.Altankhuyag to perform in Japan in the scope of the 30th Anniversary of Mongolia-Japan diplomatic relations.
