Former AKB48 member-turned-actress Shimazaki Haruka (30) faces criticism for her comment about her male fans' looks on broadcast.
During ABEMA's 'Love Hyena 2' on June 4th, Shimazaki Haruka and Kashiwagi Yuki, recalled their experiences with 'handshake events.' It's an event where celebrities and fans shake hands, a practice that is not commonly seen in South Korea.
Kashiwagi Yuki mentioned, "Over 500 fans attend handshake events. We usually decide talk informally and formally with the fans, depending on each of them." When asked about fans who are memorable to her, Shimazaku Haruka responded, "I don't remember any of them." When the host asked if there are any of those fans who are their types, Shimazaki Haruka replied, "No. There are no handsome men among idol fans."

-The fact that this turned into an article is hilariousㅋㅋㅋㅋ Where did the criticism come from?
-She's so straightforwardㅋㅋㅋㅋ It's not like she's saying something that is not true... I mean, it's already a relief if they don't smell...
-So honestㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-She's just being honestㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-She only said that there are no handsome men among idol fans. How does that become "All fans are ugly"?
-The question was weird from the start, wasn't it??
-Even if they're not good-looking, aren't they the ones who spent money on her???
-She already had that concept from the start, even when she was an idol. She was famous for her indifferent attitude. That's what made her popular.
-"There are no handsome guys" = "They're all ugly."?? That's a really strange way of thinking.
-She's just the type of person who say things like thatㅋㅋㅋ
-She didn't exactly say that her fans are ugly. She just said that there are no handsome men among her fans.
-She made similar remarks before, didn't she?
-She was always like this, right?
