Chuchu Harucho, the “mysterious beauty” who is getting a lot of attention on X, makes her first appearance in FRIDAY.
Photo model Harucho makes her first gravure appearance in FRIDAY. We interviewed her about her mysterious true face and her striking name.
I came to see if it wasn’t an AI! (laugh).”
Chuchu, a photo model with a childlike face and marshmallow body, has been creating a stir on social networking sites with her gravure shots, which have attracted nearly 10,000 likes and soothed her 74,000 followers with her adorable smile, His enigmatic image, in which he does not reveal his age or history, and above all, his neat looks, have even led some to ask, “Could he possibly be an AI? He is a person of interest.
Fans often ask me if he is an AI. Some of them come to our events saying, “I came to see if it’s not AI! and come to our events to see if he is AI or not.
(Laughs)” Events are fan meetings that Harucho holds on a regular basis. Harucho’s events, which are often held in Tokyo, attract fans from all over the country.
We hold a photo session event once a week as a chance to meet our fans, ” he says. I also upload photogravure photos to X every day and sell products related to the photos, such as chekis and CD-Rs containing the image data on my online store with my signature on them.
Everyone has come a long way to see me, and they are all so kind to me. They are all so kind to me, and I get healed every time. Some of them are camera hobbyists, while others say, ‘I don’t have a camera, but I came to see you. My photo sessions are more about socializing than shooting, so I hope that many more people will feel free to come and visit me.
Chuchu” is an unusual name that is difficult to read at first glance, but she says it is a stage name that she came up with herself and that it is a guess.
I thought it would be nice to have a name that is cute and easy to remember. At first, I was thinking of using hiragana for the softness of the name, “Chuchu,” but I decided against it because it would be hard to ego-search on X. Then, I thought I would just use a guess. Then, I decided to use a phonetic alphabet, so I decided to combine my favorite motif, butterfly, and the character for “spring,” which fits the motif, and chose “chuchu” as the reading. I wanted a name that would leave a lasting impression, so I thought that with this name, people would remember her as ‘a girl with two difficult kanji characters.
Thankfully, my number of followers on X continues to increase, and I’ve been getting more and more new people who come to my events by word of mouth among my fans. I am very happy to be featured in a magazine for the first time, as I have been hoping to increase the number of people who know me through various means.
I want to cherish each and every encounter.
I was very happy when I received the offer to appear in a photogravure magazine, and I was a little skeptical, thinking, ‘FRIDAY is the same FRIDAY that everyone knows, isn’t it? I was a little skeptical (laughs). I usually prepare my own costumes and do my own makeup, so it was refreshing to be surrounded by the staff for a photo shoot like today, and it was a lot of fun.
During the shoot, it was impressive to see how she communicated with the staff while looking them in the eye.
I often hear from fans that when they meet and talk with him, he is different from the image in his photos. They often say, ‘You are brighter than I expected,’ or ‘You talk a lot. Perhaps I look mysterious and quiet in my photos; there was even a theory that I was an AI (laugh). (Laughs.) It’ s nice to hear people say that I have a gap between the two in a good way.
A little over a year has passed since she began her gravure activities through X in October 2023. We asked Harucho, who is riding high, about her goals for the future.
I think that reaching 100,000 followers on X is a benchmark, but I am very happy that even one more person knows me, and at the same time I realize how difficult it is to reach that number. That is why I want to cherish each and every encounter.
