Hinatazaka46 says goodbye to Kageyama Yuuka
#日向坂46 #影山優佳 – Japanese idol group Hinatazak46 said goodbye to their member Kageyama Yuuka with a graduation ceremony at Tokyo International Forum Hall A on 19 July 2023. The ceremony was a mixture of talk show and concert due to her hearing problems. Besides a quiz, a live radio broadcast was produced for Tokyofm. At the end there was a small concert with Kageyama’s favorite songs.
With Kageyama Yuuka another highly interesting member leaves the group at a young age. Already in Hiragana Keyaki times she took a longer break to prepare for the entrance examination at Tokyo University. Later, during a self-documentation, she confessed that she did not take the exam due to mental problems. At that time, she was torn between the group and her education and was thinking about graduation.
After returning to Hinatazaka46 , the media noticed her exceptional intellect and expertise in soccer so she was regularly invited to quiz and soccer shows. Unfortunately, due to the increasing stress, an old childhood affliction became noticeable again and Kageyama Yuuka developed problems with loud music, especially at concerts. She wanted to graduate from the group in the summer of 2022, but wanted to promote Hinatazaka46 again with her work as a presenter during the World Cup2022 and therefore postponed her graduation.
