Gurunai:Two new members of Gochi, who are they? Interview video with a borderline Q&A

Ahead of the start of the new series "Gochi 26" of the popular segment "Gourmet Chicken Race Gochi ni Narimasu! (Gochi Battle)" of the Nippon Television variety show "Guruguru Ninety-Nine" on January 16th, interview videos of the new members have been released on the show's official X (formerly Twitter) and other platforms.

Last year's "Gochi 25" featured Takashi Okamura from "Ninety-Nine", Takahisa Masuda from "NEWS", Shintaro Moriyama, Fuka Koshiba, Fumiya Takahashi, and Yasuko from "Mitorizu". At the end-of-year special, it was confirmed that Moriyama and Yasuko were fired.

Are the new members comedians, actors, artists, or idols? In the interview video, they engage in a borderline question-and-answer session.

"Gurunai Gochi 26 Opens! Two New Members! 2-Hour Special" will be broadcast from 7pm on January 16th and will feature the new members as well as VIP challengers Masaki Suda and Tetsuro Degawa.
