Talent Naenano, who has over 7 million total social media followers, appeared as the first guest for the second year of the Nippon Broadcasting System program "Akane Osawa LUCKY 7 supported by Inuzuka Seisakusho" (Nippon Broadcasting System, every Monday to Friday from 9:50 PM to 9:57 PM) from Monday, March 30th to Friday, April 3rd. She spoke about the origins of her social media activities since junior high school and the behind-the-scenes story of her breakthrough.

Naenano gained attention on social media as a "beauty who looks great even in photos taken by others" and began her social media activities when she was in her third year of junior high school. In 2019, she had a major breakthrough on TikTok. Since then, she has been active in a wide range of fields, including acting, fashion modeling, weather reporting, radio hosting, and even music.

Regarding how she became interested in social media, she laughed as she recalled that a print club (purikura) photo she posted on X received "more likes than everyone else's, so I thought, 'Maybe I'm cute?'" After that, when she started YouTube, her followers exceeded 100,000 in just two weeks. However, regarding the sudden attention, she shared her state of mind at the time, saying, "I started it because I wanted to be famous, but the growth was more than I expected, and there were good comments as well as bad comments... it was painful." On the other hand, she also revealed that she takes it positively, saying, "If it weren't for those harsh comments back then, I probably wouldn't be as cute as I am now."

She also mentioned that although she used to get depressed, she had a "gyaru" friend who would say positive things to her, and her mindset has changed over the past year, thinking, "I should just be like her." She now says, "When someone tells me 'You're cute,' I make sure to answer, 'Yes, I am.'"

Regarding what made her decide to make social media her career, she confessed, "I decided to move to Tokyo when my YouTube income exceeded my father's income." When asked for advice on the program's TikTok, she gave her frank opinion, saying, "The first thing I thought was that the image quality is too bad..." When Akane revealed that "the screen is always cloudy with fingerprints," Naenano drew laughter by saying, "Please wipe it!"

Akane concluded the candid talk by saying, "Naenano-chan changed herself to be positive by following the example of her gyaru friend. Her advice for our program's TikTok was simply that 'the image quality is bad.'"
