Yasuko’s Bold Comments and Low Energy Spark Debate Amid Concerns of Change
There are reports of a strange change occurring with comedian Yasuko.
This summer, she became a focal point of controversy following an incident involving YouTuber Fuwa-chan. Fuwa-chan apologized for an inappropriate post about Yasuko and indefinitely suspended her entertainment activities.
Additionally, during the broadcast of Nippon Television’s “24-Hour Television 47” from August 31 to September 1, Yasuko volunteered to be a marathon runner for a children’s care facility that had once supported her. The total amount raised in donations reached 438,014,480 yen.
“Yasuko has been posting uplifting messages on social media, and her popularity remains high following the series of events. Clients are keenly interested, hoping to appeal to people of all ages.”
According to a representative from the agency, Yasuko was recently featured in a new commercial for Kao’s “Babu Medicure”.
Concerns are being raised about the sanctification of comedians.
That said, there are concerns about Yasuko’s sanctification.
In the past, So Shakou from the comedy duo “Shimofuri Myojo”, mentioned in a YouTube video.
“It’s tough for a comedian if their popularity rises too much.”,
“You have to show some of the more flawed aspects, like I do.”
As advised, the current situation where every move is scrutinized may feel stifling.
“With a busy schedule, even Yasuko seems a bit worn out. Some people have witnessed her loudly expressing herself to someone who appeared to be a staff member from her agency at the entrance of a certain key station. It stood out quite a bit,” said an entertainment industry insider.
At another time, her reactions on a show were less lively than expected, prompting concern among the staff, with some saying,
“Is she okay!?”
There were even moments when this became a topic of discussion.
