During the Instagram live broadcast on July 26, 2023, the birthday of Yamashita Mizuki of the idol group “Nogizaka46”, several comments such as “I want to see underwear” were received.

The scene where Yamashita reads out the comments has been circulated on Twitter (currently X) and has been criticized.

Yamashita performed an Instagram live on her birthday. She read aloud the comments that were sent to her and responded. “Please don’t come” to the comment. “Can I go home?” When she read a comment saying, “I want to see her underwear,” she put her hand to her mouth and laughed, saying, “I can’t show it!

“When she was asked, “Please get married,” she smiled, saying, “Yes, there may be such a future. Please write down only half of the marriage registration”.

In response to a request to “show me your socks”, she turned her feet to the screen and said, “Today… Deden! I’m not wearing them. What I did today was wear sandals”.

After a video clip of Yamashita responding to questions that sounded like sexual harassment went viral on Twitter, criticism of the questioner continued. “There’s a certain amount of insane. The person herself is pretending, but she’s definitely uncomfortable”, “There’s a limit to what you can ask” and more.
