39th Mynavi Tokyo Girls Collection 2024 AUTUMN/WINTER ~IS:SUE (RIN, NANO, YUUKI, RINO)~

Saturday, September 7, 2024 at Saitama Super Arena39th Mynavi Tokyo Girls Collection 2024 AUTUMN/WINTER' was held.
The theme for this year's event is "A STEP FORWARD." A STEP FORWARD signifies the start of a new adventure or challenge. TGC is filled with the excitement of discovering a new you.
With autumn approaching, Mynavi TGC 2024 A/W featured a diverse and impressive lineup of performers, and we spoke to the four-member girl group IS:SUE (RIN, NANO, YUUKI, RINO).

■About appearing at TGC

RINO
TGC was a stage we were looking forward to, and it was one of the stages we really wanted to be on, so we were filled with joy.

YUKI
The audience seats are spread out all over the place, which makes performing even more fun.

NANO
It had always been my dream to perform at TGC, so I was very happy when it was decided that we would be performing as IS:SUE. I hope that we can have fun on stage and entertain the audience as well.

rhine
I was able to appear at TGC thanks to all my fans and my fellow members. I don't think I could have gotten this far on my own, so I want to enjoy myself while never forgetting my gratitude.

■What are the key points of the costume?

RINO
The key point of our outfits this time is the "uniform." My outfit is a gyaru-style overseas girl outfit, so the pins on my tie and turban are all sparkly, giving it a gyaru feel. (laughs)

YUKI
The best part is the hoodie. The back is a little open, so it's very cute when you see it from the front and back, and I think it will be a treat for the eyes when I perform.

NANO
For me, the beret is a highlight, but the best part is how the knitwear underneath matches the red hair color! The earrings also have red accents.

rhine
This is my first costume with a hat, so I love it.

■For those of you who have achieved your dreams, please tell us what you think is appealing about your job.

RINO
I feel so lucky to have a job where I can give energy to people, just to hear our fans being happy or telling me that watching us made them feel better. As long as there is even one person who can smile because of my energy, I want to continue to cheer them on.

YUKI
I think the appeal is being able to express myself in many different ways. I'm happy to have the opportunity to wear new costumes again this time, and I think there are endless possibilities depending on the song and concept, so I hope everyone in REBORN will continue to enjoy it.

NANO
There are many times when I am reminded of how much support I receive from people. I am grateful to so many people thanks to this job, including my fans, family and friends, and above all the staff who support me every day. I am truly glad that I am able to do this job.

rhine
I think it's not normal to have someone support your dreams. I'm happy that so many people are supporting my dreams and the stage I want to perform on, and I feel blessed to be able to be a big presence for someone.

■How do you get through difficult times?

RINO
I relieve stress by sleeping. (laughs)
Sometimes I write my thoughts down in a notebook, but I think it's important to get some sleep.
I think to myself that the next day I'll be able to do something about it, and then I go to bed thinking, "I worked hard today and I'm tired, so it's ok!" (laughs).

YUKI
I am supported by my family and other important people in my life. When I'm having a hard time, I talk to them about it, then I can change my mindset and do my best.

NANO
I agree with YUUKI, and I feel like I want to tell my family about even the smallest things, so I share not only the difficult things but also the fun things with them, so that we can communicate frequently.

rhine
I will also be reaching out to my friends, family, and brother!

■Please give some encouragement and advice to students who are working hard towards their dreams.

RINO
I believe that if you keep believing in yourself, you will definitely get what you want, so when you feel discouraged, take time to rest, and keep working towards your goals at your own pace, without losing sight of what you love and what you want to do!

YUKI
Now that I'm working, I often feel grateful for the freedom I had as a student, so I hope you will focus on how you want to live your life, without being bound by the feeling that things have to be a certain way.

NANO
Anyway, enjoy your student life! (lol)
Time is truly limited. I'm the only member who has experience going through my senior year of university, but time flies by and before you know it, you'll be graduating. I hope you'll cherish each and every day, do only what you want to do with the friends around you, and have fun!

rhine
I hope that you never feel ashamed of your dreams. There may be dreams that are difficult to talk about with the people around you, but I think that talking about them with someone you can trust can be a relief, so I hope that you don't crush your own dreams.
