Poor Sato Erika.
As a member of the idol group Zenryoku R, Sato misread the train station she had to go to. Instead of going to Aomi Station in Odaiba for her performance at ZEPP TOKYO…
Sato ended up heading west to Oume Station near Mt. Odake nearly two hours away.
Her management tweeted the following message on July 25th:
本日、佐藤絵里香がライブ場所を青海と青梅で間違えてしまい、ライブに間に合わなくなりました。佐藤に変わり成瀬が出演致します。特典会は間に合い11人全員参加致します。急な変更で申し訳ございません。

Today, Sato Erika mistook the live place near Oume Station and not Aomi Station, so she will not make it in time for the live. Naruse will fill in behalf of Sato and eleven members will participate in the reward meeting. We apologize for the sudden change.
Embarrassed by what she did, Sato tweeted the following message:
ZeppTokyoに来てくれた皆さん!今日は本当にすいませんでした!!
私は、青海駅じゃなく青梅駅に行ってしまいライブに最後一曲だけ出させて頂きました😭でも、笑ってくれてありがとうございます😢
全力の名も世に広まったかな?(笑)
全力少女Rも佐藤絵里香も今後もよろしくお願いします🙇♂️えり茶 pic.twitter.com/uoMDNT5bfv— 佐藤絵里香(全力少女R)🐥 (@satoerika0308) July 25, 2018

Everyone who came to ZEPP TOKYO, I’m really sorry for today! I went to Oume Station and not Aomi Station and arrived by the final song of the live. Thank you for laughing. Was the name of Zenryoku spread to the world? Zenryoku R and Sato Erika will continue to thank you.
Later that day, Sato wrote:
ゆかりお姉ちゃんに青海駅と青梅駅間違えちゃったよ!って言ったら
『いや、私もAKB時代にやったことあるよ!!!』
いや、姉妹って似るもんだな(笑)えり茶#佐藤由加理 #佐藤絵里香https://t.co/IjuvngcChf

When her older sister Sato Yukari, a former member of AKB48 (2005-2010) and SDN48 (2009-2012) found out, Yukari said she did the same exact thing when she was a member of AKB48.
Like older sister, like little sister.
