Continuing the life of Kuromiya Rei is the story of Houkago No Idol Ni Wa Himitsu Ga Aru. She is a fifteen year old idol. Hiruno Hizashi is another main character of the story, who is fascinated by watching her idol friend lead her very strict life. This boy is not good at studying and does not play any sports.
His parents always scolded him, saying he was good for nothing. On the other hand, seeing his classmate develop and receive the love of the whole country, he became even more jealous. However, that was only until he discovered the bitter truth behind an idol’s life and what they have to go through.
From the first day of high school, he had trouble having an idol studying with him. But now that he knows what happened behind the scenes, he feels quite regretful and sympathetic.
Aren’t you curious about how this teenage girl can do everything? So let’s find out how Kuromiya Rei excels at everything she does.
Summarize
Previously, in Houkago No Idol Ni Wa Himitsu Ga Aru Chapter 18, we saw Kuromiya Rei’s daily vlog that she was filming. After waking up, she first washed her face. For breakfast, she always eats overnight oatmeal, then she jogs for 30 minutes.
Sometimes, Kuromiya Rei has to skip school because of work. This is the life of Kuromiya Rei, an idol. She is known to have an intelligent personality and does her work very carefully and properly. On the days she missed school, Sakamoto Kun missed her the most.
Now there is only a little time left until the final exam. Even though she is going through a difficult time, she goes unnoticed by those around her.
Maybe this is the normal life of an idol but maybe not. One thing is for sure, thanks to trying to escape scandals at school and work, she is living a very strict life. Even though her manager tries to help her, she doesn’t really share her problems with anyone.
What to expect from the upcoming chapter?
In the next part of the story, Sakamoto Kun, truly worried about Rei and sensing she was going through a difficult time, decided to contact her. He suggests they meet for a casual chat or a friendly hangout, creating a comfortable space for Rei to open up.
During their time together, Sakamoto Kun expressed his concern for Rei and gently encouraged her to share what was on her mind. Their meeting deepens their bond, giving Rei a supportive friend outside of the pressures of her idol life.
At the same time, Rei faces an important decision regarding a potential opportunity that could significantly impact her career. This decision prompted her to reassess her priorities and the sacrifices she had been making. Tensions increase as final exams approach and Rei realizes she cannot continue to hide from her problems.
The story takes a different turn when Rei, influenced by Sakamoto Kun’s kindness and support, considers opening up to someone for the first time. This change sets the stage for Rei’s journey of self-discovery, challenging the strict boundaries she sets for herself and paving the way for personal growth and meaningful connections.
