'Romance Forbidden': Shoko Haida and The Iron Rules As a Song Girl

Shoko Haida, who has graduated as a song girl of NHK 'Okasan to Issho', has revealed the contents of her contract with the show.

Shoko Haida was a song girl between April 2003 and March 2005. She once revealed in 'Waratte-iitomo' that song girls cannot have any other job other than the song girls. However, that was not the only commitment she had to make. On June 17, she talked about the iron rules of song girls in 'Lion no Gokigenyo'.

When you hear the rule, 'romance forbidden', many of you think of AKB48, but this strict iron rule applies to the song girls as well. They should not ruin the image as a 'big sister' to all the kids who watch the show. They cannot travel overseas or drive a car. It is probably because if they get into some kind of accident, it will greatly disappoint the kids. As to maintain their image, Haida was also instructed not to walk while eating. Haida still cannot walk and eat with her friends, but it is also because she thinks it is 'difficult to do two things, walk and eat, together'. The MC Kazuki Kosakai asked her whether she has a driver's license, she said she has a temporary license and made everyone lurch.

The ground rule as a song girl is to maintain good health condition. She recalled her old days which she acted energetically with the kids even though she had a cold and was not feeling well. According to her, she rarely gets mad. In the history of song girls, her career of 5 years is relatively long, although Yuko Kanzaki and Ayumi Shigemori have 6 years of career. Her character must be a big factor to be able to work as a song girl for such a long period of time.
