Q: Please tell us what your motive was for becoming an idol.
When I was little I wanted to be an actress, and when I took lessons for singing and dancing as well as acting, I thought singing and dancing were fun so thought I'd try and be an idol.
Hearing that I could become a back dancer at concerts if I became a Hello Pro Kenshuusei,
since I liked dance I thought "Let's try and audition."
Applying to the Morning Musume 12th gen member audition.
Seeing the audition posters
Seeing the videos of the Morning Musume 9th gen audition was my motivation!
The moment I saw the dance for Morning Musume-san's "One・Two・Three",
I was moved by Sayashi Riho-san's sharp movements and thought "I want to dance like that too!"
