Reiwa’s Most Captivating Keio Grad Freelance Announcer Unveils Her Take on The Eroticism of Sheerness
Yume Shirato, a freelance announcer active mainly in sports programs, appeared on FRIDAY. We interviewed her about her favorite drink and her unique theory on gravure!
Mugi-so or Mugi-Mugi
── Did you do anything special to prepare for this gravure shoot?
“I usually eat a lot, so about two weeks before the shoot, I cut out my beloved alcohol and focused on eating vegetables and chicken breast. I also avoided my favorite—noodles. Right before the shoot, I do a fasting regimen with enzyme drinks and water. I’m the type to make last-minute adjustments (laughs). I stay motivated by looking forward to eating after the shoot!”
── So, you like alcohol?
“My favorite is a barley shochu called ‘Kanehachi.’ I like drinks with a bit of a strong character. I either have it with soda or mixed with barley tea. I call it ‘mugi-so’ (barley shochu soda) or ‘mugi-mugi’ (barley shochu with barley tea). People often say I have the drinking habits of an old man (laughs).”
── Lastly, do you have a message for FRIDAY readers?
“Nice to meet you (laughs). I think it’s been about three years since I started doing gravure, and now I’ve had the opportunity to be featured in FRIDAY. Thank you so much! I’ll keep working hard so I can continue appearing in front of you all, so I’d be really happy if you support me through social media and other platforms!”
