Former V6 Member Junichi Okada’s Social Media Response to Deceased Fan’s Daughter During Hiatus Sparks Discussion, Earns Praise as True Idol

Amidst this, on March 7th, Okada suddenly posted, “Thank you today! I think a lot towards the sky. I hope it reaches.” Looking at the responses from fans,

“To Okada-kun himself!”

“Okada-kun, you’re reading replies properly”

“Hoping Okada-kun’s feelings get through.”

“I can’t stop crying. I’m glad it reached”

Such reactions followed one after another.

“The reason being, the day before, a certain X user had sent a message in response to Okada’s post. It was mentioned that the mother, who was a big fan of Okada, suddenly passed away, and her daughter replied from her mother’s account. It seems like they thought the mother would be happy if this post caught Okada’s eye, whom she had long supported. Other fans who knew the circumstances also offered words of condolence. Presumably, Okada, upon receiving this, wrote the next morning, ‘I think a lot towards the sky. I hope it reaches,'” says the aforementioned entertainment writer.

Okada, known for his consideration towards fans, will likely continue to be supported by many people in the future.
