It’s been 6 years since I joined. As I continued to do group activities, I began to prioritize the dreams I wanted to achieve as STU48 over my own dreams. However, this song has the lyrics “Believe in only my dream,” which literally translates to “Believe in your own dream.” Ah, you can still have desire. It’s okay to prioritize yourself. This song reminded me of what is important as an idol. I hope each of us can believe in our own dreams and stick to them, and then give back to the group and make the group’s dreams come true. “Be honest” has English lyrics! I am in charge of singing the songs for that. When I was a student, I loved studying English so much that I went to study abroad a lot. I’m glad that I was able to use that English in a scene! I feel like Ariana Grande and sing with all my heart every time. As the Immediate Genki Support Team, we will do our best to deliver energy and power to more and more people through songs and Immediate Genki!

This time, the song “Be honest”, which I also participated in, has become the official tie-up song for Sokue Genki! I’m very happy. This song has an atmosphere unlike anything STU48 has ever done before. No matter what people around you say, look forward and proceed in your own way! Go towards your dreams! It’s a refreshing and strong song that teaches us that. There are parts of it that I can really relate to, and when I hum it, it motivates me. I always find myself unconsciously comparing myself to others and feeling depressed, so the lyrics in the chorus, “Everyone is different. Is it bad to be honest?” stuck with me. I would like to give energy to those who feel the same way or are feeling a little tired as an immediate energy cheering squad! Sometimes I get tired when I work hard every day, but if you listen to this song and listen to this song, I think you’ll be energized!

Let’s spend a good day with STU48 and Sokujo Genki!

“Be honest” has been my favorite song ever since I heard it for the first time, so I was surprised that it was selected as a tie-up song, and I’m also very happy! ! It’s an energetic song that has STU48’s characteristic of “being clumsy but moving forward in a straightforward manner”, so I think it’s perfect for a quick hit-and-run. As the “Immediate Genki Cheer Squad,” I would like to support those who work hard every day with tie-up songs so that I can encourage the people who work hard every day and also be energized by the fans. The choreography is also full of power, so I would like many people to see it. I hope that someday I will be able to perform while having a “ready-to-attack spirit”. thank you!

We have been active as the Sokujo Genki Cheer Team since July of last year, and “Be honest,” sung by the six of us, has been selected as the official tie-up song for Sokujo Genki. I’m so happy! This song is the kind of song that pushes you to move steadily forward on your own path in order to make your dreams come true. When I first heard the song, I burst into tears as the lyrics conveyed my emotions directly. We will deliver it with all our heart so that you can convey those feelings!

I’m very happy to have this wonderful opportunity to sing as an official tie-up song for the Immediate Genki Cheer Team. “Be honest” is a song that makes me want to work hard honestly and positively.When I listen to this song, I think that the image of people working hard and doing their best is really cool and wonderful, and I want to be that kind of person. I once again thought that I wanted to become one. Through this song, I would like to send cheers of support to people who are worried about something or want to do their best at something! And from now on, I will continue to do my best as a member of the Immediate Genki Cheer Squad to deliver power and energy to everyone!
