On May 3rd, Terakado Jimon of the group Dachou Club appeared at the fashion and music event "Rakuten GirlsAward 2025 SPRING/SUMMER," held at the National Yoyogi Stadium No. 1 Gymnasium (Shibuya Ward, Tokyo). His surprise appearance, without prior notice, surprised the venue full of young people.
This is the first time Terakado has appeared at the event in about 10 years since "GirlsAward 2015 SPRING/SUMMER". Terakado, who loves sneakers and won the "SNEAKER BEST DRESSER AWARD" in the comedian category last year, appeared on the "atmos presents SNEAKER BEST DRESSER AWARD 2025" stage with Keito Tsuna, who won the actor category, and walked the runway as a "36-year age difference duo."
Appearing in a monochrome outfit, Terakado gave his familiar greeting, "Yay!" and then exploded with joy, saying, "I'm so happy. This is a rare stage in such a wonderful place. I'm glad I like sneakers. If I didn't have sneakers I wouldn't have been invited!"
When the MC, Ryota Yamazato of Nankai Candies, asked the audience, "Who screamed at Jimon?", some of the audience started waving their penlights. Terakado gave them some fan service, saying, "You'll get a good response!"
The Girls Awards began in May 2010, and this year marks the 27th time. Models, actors and other performers will walk down the runway in trendy fashion, and eight artists including Nogizaka46 and &TEAM will perform live. The MCs will be Yamazato, Kasumi Mori and Tsubasa Honda.
