Actress Ayame Goriki will appear on "Dancing! Sanma Goten!! Autumn 2-Hour Special" (NTV), which will be broadcast on October 21st at 7pm. Gouriki, whose surname is one of only about 50 people in the entire country, will talk about the "problems" she faces due to her unusual surname.
The day featured two programs: "Major Surnames vs. Super Rare Surnames" and "Large Families of Celebrities." In the "Major Surnames vs. Super Rare Surnames" program, Toru Hottahara, whose surname is shared by only about 20 people nationwide, will appear, along with Goriki and Ryuya Shimekake of Travis Japan.
In the talk theme "The troubles of being born with this surname," Goriki said, "If I get married, my surname will change, so if possible, I'd like to become a son-in-law." The host, Sanma Akashiya, responded, "I wouldn't mind if I went (to become a son-in-law)," causing the studio to erupt in laughter.
The show also features ordinary people with extremely rare surnames, such as "Ichiban Kassen-san" and "Ubuyashiki-san."
