Nogizaka46's First Scandal!
Photo scoop of the public kiss
SOURCE
A popular member of Nogizaka46 –a group inside the AKB Group that holds high the principle of innocence– has been photographed by Shukan Bunshun whilst having a date around the metropolitan area.
The photograph was taken outside a residential apartment when the member in question was repeatedly hugging and kissing her companion without any reservations.
The companion was a man who works for a large publishing company. He is currently married with kids.
This date between this member and the man was not the first time – according to our sources, it was confirmed that within 3 weeks, they had approximately 3 dates.
Those dates happened at a high-class karaoke located in Shinjuku and Ginza among other places, and they reportedly spent more than 4 hours in said karaoke.
We tried to get confirmation from both sides, but both the man and the Nogizaka member did not reply within the given time. This is the first time that a Nogizaka46 member is involved in such case. As with AKB48, the “Love Ban” system is also implemented within Nogizaka46.
We will be publishing more photos of this subject matter to our Digital publication very soon.
