Singer-songwriter Aimyon appeared at a rehearsal for the 75th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen(General and other channels) held at the NHK Hall in Shibuya, Tokyo on December 28th.
Aimyon is also known as a fan of the Hanshin Tigers. When asked by a reporter about next year's Hanshin Tigers, she expressed her expectations, saying, "I'm excited that Fujikawa (Kyoji) will be the manager. My father often goes to Koshien Stadium, so I'm looking forward to his report on the Hanshin Tigers."
Regarding the possibility of throwing the first pitch at Koshien, he said, "I love baseball so much, so if I could do it, I would like to start by building up my physical condition. I want to throw the ball at a good speed and deliver it properly, so it's still too early. I need to train my shoulder and get a lot of practice, so next year I want to aim to eliminate all strikeouts."
Regarding her participation in the Kohaku Uta Gassen, she said, "I am grateful to have had the opportunity to participate six times, and I hope to perform my best to express my gratitude for this year."
The 75th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen will be broadcast on December 31st from 7:20pm to 11:45pm (with some news breaks). Hiroiki Ariyoshi, Kanna Hashimoto, Sari Ito, and announcer Naoko Suzuki will be the hosts.
