The final selection meeting for the 66th The Japan Record Awards(sponsored by the Japan Composer's Association) was held on December 30th at the New National Theatre (Shibuya Ward, Tokyo), where the pop chorus group Junretsu performed their song "Yumemita Kajitsu," which won them the Excellence Award. The reaction of the show's host Haruna Kawaguchi became a hot topic.
During Junretsu's performance, as they reached the lyrics "Why are you so cute?", Kawaguchi was photographed by the camera. With a confused look on her face and her fingers on her cheek, comments such as "Kawaguchi Haruna is too cute from the flow of Junretsu's lyrics", "Haruna is cute when she's confused by being photographed", "Kawaguchi Haruna's reaction is 100 points!" and "It's enough that Kawaguchi Haruna should win the Record Award" were posted one after another on social media.
