On the bayfm radio program “Tonight, Under Sakura’s Tree” (every Wednesday 24:00-24:30), broadcast on Wednesday, June 24, 2020.
Miyawaki Sakura: Tokyo, radio name “Moriroku”.
Thank you.
Listener email: Good evening, Saku-chan.
Miyawaki Sakura: Good evening!
Listener email: Congratulations on your comeback.
Miyawaki Sakura: Thank you.
Listener email: I was so excited that every minute felt so long.
I first watched the performance video. First, when Saku-chan gracefully lifted the hem of her dress and bowed in “Welcome,” I wanted to bow down to her as “Queen.” From there, it was a powerful and fascinating “Fantasy Fairy Tale.” I was excited by the powerful performance, but then I found out that Saku was one of the dance break members. And he looked so cool! I was so shocked that I actually screamed out “What?”. I understood what Saku was talking about when he said “a new image.” I was really moved. Saku and IZ*ONE show more and more growth with each new song. I’m so happy to have met such idols worth supporting. Don’t push yourself, take care of yourself, and enjoy every day with the members. P.S. In “Sakunoki,” Saku said “Chaeyoung’s unrequited love,” and I loved how tsundere she was when she sent a passionate message to Chaeyoung at the comeback show. It makes me like her even more (Chaeyoung). Miyawaki Sakura: Thank you (laughs). Right, in the VCR of the comeback show, there was a part where she said a message to Chaeyoung… I think there are some people who haven’t seen it, so I’ll explain what she said. This time, I joined the dance break group, and they sent me videos of their practice. Every time, after practice, they sent me videos. Well, everyone watches them individually, but suddenly Chaeyoung sent me a message saying, “You’ve really gotten better at dancing!”
It’s not often that we say things like that between members. So I was really happy… to be praised by Chaeyoung. Um (laughs).
So I was really proud, and because she praised me like that, I felt like I had to work harder, so I said that.
Also, we’re sharing the same room now… in the dorm. We talk about a lot of things, but Chaeyoung and I are both “types of people who don’t tell others about our troubles.” So when Chaeyoung is worried, I want her to rely on me whenever she’s worried, and I really need her…
I told her, “I think we need each other, so I want you to continue to support me, and I want to support you” (laughs).
But really, when it comes to dancing, I’ve learned a lot from Chaeyoung. Whenever I’m not sure what to do, I’ll ask Chaeyoung right away, and she’ll explain it to me in a way that’s easy to understand. That’s why I’ve really been helped in so many ways.
I’m really grateful to Chaeyoung.
