Behind the unusual response, there seems to have been anguish at the office. &#8230;&#8230;</figcaption></figure>
 On June 14, actress Ryoko Hirosue (42) caused quite a stir when she admitted to a double affair with Shusaku Toba (45), owner and chef of the Michelin-starred French restaurant &#8220;sio.
 The uproar was triggered by a report in the June 8 issue of Shukan Bunshun. In the article, it was reported that Hirosue and Toba had a &#8220;late-night secret meeting at a hotel. The next day, the Kirin Beer &#8220;Honkirin&#8221; commercial video in which she appeared was removed from the official website, and the shooting of the movie in which she starred, set in her hometown in Kochi Prefecture, was postponed. In addition, she announced that she would not appear on &#8220;TOKYO Music Festival&#8221; (TV Tokyo), where she has served as MC since 2007.
 Kirin Brewery had just held a presentation of its new commercial in the latter half of May, but its public relations department decided not to air it, claiming that it would not be able to convey the value of the product. The company&#8217;s image has completely fallen to the ground. The actress herself must have been acutely aware of this, and must have realized that she could not continue to tell lies. Prior to Hirosue&#8217;s announcement, her husband, Candle Jun, posted on SNS hinting at a divorce, and the situation has become even more confused.
 (Sports paper desk) &#8220;Until now, whenever a scandalous report about Hirosue appeared, her office has repeatedly denied all the facts, saying that the report had no basis in fact. This time, however, the office continued to take an &#8220;unusual response&#8221; by issuing a comment immediately after the news report, saying, &#8220;We have given her a strict warning to act responsibly.
 What is behind this stance, which can be said to be the complete opposite of what it has been up to now? A person involved in the entertainment industry reveals.

 A person involved in the entertainment industry revealed, &#8220;Normally, for a talent like Hirosue, who is the face of the agency, the agency would give appropriate consideration and response. However, in this case, they have made a complete turnaround and completely shunned her. Behind this is the experience of a major failure in the past. This was the affair of Erika Karada (25), who belongs to the same office. The office thoroughly protected Ms. Karada during the turmoil. They took an unusual measure, such as giving her a place to stay by letting her do office work until the situation calmed down, but the result did not work out. The fact that she still cannot perform as much as she would like is partly due to the fact that the way the office handled the situation at that time is still lingering in her memory.&#8221;
 The change in the office&#8217;s response was also influenced by the times.
 The influence of the Internet and social networking sites is now very powerful. The influence of the Internet and social networking services is now very powerful. Criticisms grew up mainly on the Internet and social networking services, and finally, it affected the office, which in turn had a negative impact on the work of other talents in the company. The office has bitter experience from that time, so unlike the past, this time they have no choice but to show firmness in their response.
 The situation has become even more confusing as her husband, Candle Jun, posted on social media prior to her announcement, hinting at a divorce.
