Okada has the back of Kiko watching the young staff member leave.

The man had just told her to relax and move forward...... This sentence echoed in Yukiko Okada's mind.

Yukiko Okada has wanted to become a star since she was a child, and although her family has many objections to her lack of business, she still proves to her family that she can do both work and study with her excellent academic performance of all A's.

Later, he finally got his wish and became an idol, and he got good results as soon as he debuted, and was pinned on by the company.

In the year after her debut, Miss Shengzi of the same company revealed her willingness to get married, and in order to top the idol market that SUNMUSIC lost after Miss Shengzi temporarily withdrew, she was just showing her talents, and she was decided to be the successor of Miss Shengzi.

Since then, she has gotten resources that are many times more luxurious than when she first debuted, and the production team of the album has been replaced by the people who originally followed Miss Shengzi, and in order to play the national level, she also served as the starring role of the TV station unit drama, and every resource is what other idols dream of.

Similarly, every resource is also clearly priced, telling her how much she should bring back.

Since then, the words that have lingered in her ears are "Yukiko, come on!", "Yukiko, this level of effort is not enough!", "Yukiko, your potential is more than that!", these words cheered her up and urged her to go further.

The people at the studio and the record company, the most trusted agent, Nobuo Mizoguchi, everyone said so to her. She also tried her best to be worthy of this resource.

In fact, her results have been very good, and she has been rising since her debut, and compared with the idols who debuted in the same period, she is undoubtedly a leader, and now that the idol market is gradually saturated, Yukiko Okada is one of the few later successes.

As an idol, she is already very qualified, but she is burdened with the heavy responsibility of "the successor of Matsuda Seiko". This name was not chosen by the outside media for her, but the target of the studio and the record company.

In order to catch up with Miss Son, she ran forward desperately, but if there is Xizi, there is Xizi, and she can't become the Holy Son.

The new single that was just released at the beginning of this year invited the great composer Mr. Ryuichi Sakamoto, and the lyrics were written by Miss Seiko, a senior of the same firm, and the luxurious configuration and rising popularity finally made her win the first weekly chart since her debut.

Yukiko Okada wanted to hear a compliment and get a thumbs up, but the people at the office said to her, "Yukiko, although she won the weekly championship, it is far from enough, please work harder." ”

Work harder......

Before entering this industry, the profession of idol, in the eyes of Yukiko Okada, was a profession that brought joy and hope, and a star sand that shone in a glass bottle.

However, now she deeply feels the heavy shackles that the idol profession has been carrying since its birth. The flickering light seen in the eyes of outsiders actually comes from the iron flail worn on the body.

Packaged by adults at a high price, singing the songs they arranged, saying the words they told them, giving up a part of themselves, and then the fans cheering for this incomplete self - what is the reason for all this in front of them?

When she was still in her hometown, Yukiko Okada was at school, and her classmates loved her smile. So, when she decided to become an idol, she also decided to heal the public with her smile.

As a result, now, even laughing is reluctant. Even when she stood on the stage and listened to the audience shouting "Come on!", she felt a heavy burden.

The healing smile that I have the most confidence in is now adulterated...... Is this idol still qualified to stand on the stage? Recently, Yukiko Okada has been haunted by such distress.

In the midst of such a heavy burden, the only thing that made Yukiko Okada feel a little warm was the actor Toru Minegishi, who co-starred in "Forbidden Maria" last year.

When filming together, Toru Minegishi took care of her. He was twenty-four years older than Yukiko Okada, almost the age to be her father, and because of this, from the very beginning, she had great respect for Toru Minegishi and did not defend herself.

Yukiko Okada, who has little acting experience, is afraid of causing trouble on the set, but Toru Minegishi is always very patient, teaching her to act, helping her analyze the script, and constantly encouraging her.

"Rapid progress, there is Kiko!"

"Today's performance is much better than yesterday, Yukiko!"

Toru Minegishi's encouragement allowed Yukiko Okada to briefly regain the confidence she had lost, and the graceful demeanor and concern shown by the older actor made her feel a little girlish before she knew it.

Toru Minegishi knew everything about her, but he neither accepted nor refused, and hung her in mid-air. Not only that, but Yukiko Okada only learned this year that Toru Minegishi, who has been divorced, is now living with another woman.

What is a third person?

Yukiko Okada wants to leave, but Toru Minegishi shows her unprecedented kindness. And when she thought she had hope, and mentioned that Toru Minegishi was not single now, he suddenly became rejected, leaving her at a loss and constantly apologizing to him.

Yukiko Okada, who has never been in love before, doesn't know what Toru Minegishi thinks, and she doesn't know how to deal with all this.

If Toru Minegishi's heart is discovered, an eighteen-year-old idol likes a man who is twenty-four years older than him and is living with another woman, I am afraid it will become a big scandal of the year.

Yukiko Okada is tight-lipped and does not dare to mention her heart to anyone.

The new single won the weekly crown, which made the firm see the hope of continuing to promote her, so the expectations for her were even richer, and Yukiko Okada was under the pressure of the firm on the one hand, and on the other hand, tormented by Toru Minegishi's unpredictable attitude.

The knobs became tighter and tighter, and they were about to break......

I came to participate in the recording of "Night Explosion Recording Studio" today, but it was difficult to get into the state, so I could only escape outside the studio for self-reflection and adjustment before the official recording started.

"Please relax and move forward. ”

The young staff member didn't get her to cheer up...... Did he see her anxiety?

Okada has the back of Kiko watching him leave, and the mask he hastily put on just now has fallen off at some point, revealing an expression that is about to cry.

"Thank you. She said to the back.

The recording of this day was finally completed smoothly, whether it was "Night Booming Studio" on one side or "We Are Funny" on the other side.

Belonging to different camps, the encounter in a hurry, Iwahashi Shinichi didn't know that Okada had the distress in Kiko's heart, and he was now carrying considerable pressure on his shoulders, and the first two episodes of the show were finished, just waiting for April 12 to be broadcast.

But Yukiko Okada kept in mind the kindness he released by chance.

Two days later, Yukiko Okada went to TBS TV to participate in the recording of the program. When she entered the TV station building and waited for the elevator, she stared blankly at the closed gate of the elevator.

I haven't been interested in anything lately, but I still remember that in order to do a good job on time, whenever I am caught by the camera, I must smile - because I am an idol.

"Ding"

The elevator descends and the gates slowly open.

Yukiko Okada, who didn't have time to retract her gaze, looked like she was staring directly at the person who came out of the elevator. However, before she looked away, she was ashamed and saw the person among the people who came out of the elevator.

The staff member who said to her, "Please relax and move forward."
