Miyawaki Sakura (Sakura) / 1st Generation

Sakura noticed that Youtube's old subtitle system isn't in place anymore. She said she hopes she can add English subtitles soon

 

Yeah, that's a shame. Her videos would've been subtitled in at least 6 languages by now.

People have been hoping for Sakura to give a tour of her Animal Crossing island, but on yesterday's Saku no Ki, she said she's lost her switch and with it her Animal Crossing progress... ):

Translation for the last Saku no ki for Sakura as a member of IZ*ONE

They've just left Korea and returning to Japan.

 

Aw damn that first picture

Did someone ever noticed that she probably isn't returning to continue activities, more like for a last goodbye?

 

There's plausible reason to believe that BigHit has contacted Sakura, but we have had no indication that Sakura actually accepted the offer.

That article doesn't appear to present any new info. It's just jumping to conclusions based on the rumors in March.

 

These kind of sites are not reliable at all... I didn't click on the link, but the title alone is false, Sakura didn't sign an exclusive contract with anyone. She didn't say anything about it, and there is no more information about this at all since the initial rumor, so it's best not to assume what she is going to do now and just wait and see what she will do and only believe things when Sakura says it herself. For now she will be back in HKT and we will see how her career in 48G will go first, she might also receive big offers in Japan, who knows.

 

It's suspicious that BigHit didn't deny these rumours, because they're usually quick to deny things that aren't true. However, they also haven't announced anything (yet?) so this article is trying to sell rumours as fact. Neither Sakura nor BigHit have confirmed anything, so at best, what we can assume is that they talked to each other. However, that does not mean that Sakura actually signed anything.

All we can do is wait and see what happens. HKT48 recently confirmed that "all members" would participate in the concerts happening at the end of this month. Seeing as Sakura and Nako are listed as members again on the HKT48 website, this means they'll be at the concert. I'd say wait for the concerts and what will happen there.

 

When sakura left for Korea she was contracted to AKS, those contracts were sold to Mercury and even Ozaki-san is gone so she probably still has to talk to management in Japan as to whether she wants to continue or graduate. If there is a contract offer from BigHit it will have to go through Mercury first.

 

i wonder what sakura aims in the future.. just work as tarento? singing and acting never seems her first interest.

 

Actually Sakura said many times in the past that her dream is to be an actress so acting is definitely in her interest (she used to do musicals as a kid, if I remember well). if she still wants to be actress in Japan, she will have it easier now to find a very good agency. She will also probably get good offers for commercials, etc. I guess we will see what are her plans/projects soon...
