Nakanishi Chiyori was one of the AKB48 trainees on “Produce48” that got a long very well with the Korean trainees, using humor to bridge the gap and keep everyone in good spirits.
She also improved a lot dance-wise and vocally while on the show, but unfortunately, due to tight competition, Nakanishi did not break the top 30.
Nakanishi posted a message for her Korean supporters and also the Japanese fans on her Instagram:
To everyone who believed in me and voted for me, thank you very much.
I am very grateful for getting to participate in this project and meeting everyone. I didn’t have confidence in myself, so I was a bit anxious but through your generous words, I was able to get better.
I don’t know how many more opportunities to go abroad will come but I will work hard from what I learned in Korea.
Finally, I am making an effort, so I ask for the support of everyone who supported me. Thank you so much for voting for me until now. I love you.
