Yabuki Nako arrived in South Korea to host the Korean/Japanese audition show "The Idol Band: Boy's Battle"

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

HKT48 member (and former IZ*ONE member) Yabuki Nako made her return to South Korea for the first time since IZ*ONE disbanded.

The idol recently announced she was graduating from HKT48 to pursue an acting career. As for Nako, she dominated the rankings on “Produce48” early in the audition show and remained consistent of being a fan favorite and becoming a member of IZ*ONE. After IZ*ONE disbanded, she returned to HKT48 to become the face and center of the group.

Nako will host the audition show “The Idol Band: Boy’s Battle” with SF9’s Rowoon and immediately many noticed Nako wearing her WIZ*ONE ring given to her by fans.
