On the day, Enako appeared in a special costume inspired by KFC, expressing her attention to detail: 'I used red and white to make it cute, inspired by Kentucky. I even colored the wig to imagine the crispy batter of the chicken!' Following this, CEO Endo presented her with a uniquely designed sash as proof of being the '1-day manager'. She smiled and commented, 'It's a very cute sash with the face of Chururi on it!' When Enako saw the actual 'Chururi', she couldn't help but smile, saying, 'So cute!'
Next, for her first duty as '1-day manager', she tasted the new jelly drink 'Chururi'. Regarding 'Chururi (Blue Hawaii)', she reported the smooth texture with surprise: 'The lemon jelly at the bottom comes smoothly into my mouth, followed by the carbonation. It's incredibly delicious! The color is refreshing, and it tastes like youth.' For 'Chururi (Pink Cranberry)', she commented, 'The pink cranberry flavor is solid, a little sweet and very tasty! Since the color is different from Blue Hawaii, it would be cute to come with friends, buy both, and take photos together. I thought it's just right for the warming spring season,' promoting the product's novel texture and cute appearance.
Toward the end of the event, a ribbon-cutting ceremony was held by CEO Endo, Enako, the product development manager, and the store manager.
