Niino Toshiyuki tweeted that he apologized to Kimura Hana’s mother for posting the “Terrace House” reunion party photo.
Niino wrote, “I deeply regret that I posted without consideration. I did not confirm with the members who were there at the moment and I posted the photo. Kyoko, thank you for giving me the opportunity to apologize in such a difficult situation. I apologize once again”.
Kimura Kyoko was a bit frustrated that the photo was posted on the 49th day (note: The 49th Day is when Buddhist memorial services are held to mark the 49 days since one’s passing. It is thought that the souls of the dead alternate between the afterworld and this world during the seven weeks after the death).
響子さんに直接会って謝罪してきました。
配慮のない投稿をしてしまった(その場に一緒にいたメンバーには確認を取らず、新野個人の判断で投稿しました)こと、深く反省しています。
響子さん、大変辛い状況のなか謝罪の機会をいただき、ありがとうございました、改めて、申し訳ございませんでした。 https://t.co/dV0LfqGJMK
