I never dreamed that the day would come when I could release a photo book. I am really happy that I was able to make this dream come true with my fans through the online event. The shoot took place in my hometown of Kobe and Awaji Island in Hyogo Prefecture. I was able to enjoy the shoot surrounded by stylish cityscapes, calm seas, greenery and flowers. The theme was 24 hours. I want you to feel like you are spending a day with me, and I hope you can feel the different expressions and atmospheres as the time changes from morning to noon to night. Personally, I think I was able to maximize my maturity and sexiness. On the other hand, I also show my innocent side and my true self that I don’t often show, so I hope you can feel the many gaps. Please pick up a copy and feel like you have spent 24 hours with me!

Overview
This is a self-produced photo book series by three regular students and one trainee (at the time) who won the rights at the “STU48 Solo Photobook Production Rights Competition Event” held on the live streaming service “SHOWROOM” in February 2024.
The third person to appear is Aiko Kojima, who came in third place among regular students.
The theme of this work is “24 hours,” and it was shot in her hometown of Hyogo Prefecture. From waking up in the morning, to going out and having fun during the day, to dressing up and enjoying a tranquil evening, this book captures her ideal “24 hours” as imagined in Kobe and Awaji Island. This is her first and last solo photobook, which she will be graduating from the group this fall! Includes one postcard (3 types randomly selected).
