Actress Nicknamed Japanese Kim Tae-hee Shocked Fans By Revealing She Was Jobless For A Year
Popular Japanese actress Satomi Ishihara (37) draws attention after confessing that she once felt anxious about her career.
On April 28th (local time), popular Japanese actress Satomi Ishihara, who starred in Fuji TV’s hit drama “Bokura no jidai,” said she had been in tears every day because her early popularity since her debut in the entertainment industry suddenly disappeared.
Satomi Ishihara recently returned to the small screen for the first time in three years through TV Asahi’s drama “Destiny.” On April 28, she appeared in a show with director Keisuke Yoshida (48) and actor Tomoya Nakamura (37), whom she worked with in the movie “Missing,” which will be released on the 17th of next month.
Asked by Yoshida how she debuted in the entertainment industry, Ishihara said, “I actually wanted to be a radio show host.” She said she had listened to the radio since her senior year of elementary school and had hopes of becoming a radio host. However, Ishihara’s mother told her to concentrate on her studies. As a result, Ishihara made a final attempt to debut in the entertainment industry and was lucky enough to win the Grand Prix.
Ishihara has maintained the top actress position since her debut. However, in the recent show, she surprised many fans by confessing that she also felt anxious for her career in the entertainment industry. Ishihara confessed, “I entered the entertainment industry at the age of 15, and at one point, magazine, radio broadcasting, and CF deals all disappeared. It happened all in the same year. I was surprised to find that I stayed up all night with tears for about a year.”
Netizens poured in with comments such as, “The Satomi turned out to also have a dark period,” “I had no idea. She has an image of a celebrity who has been working like a cow since her debut,” and “She has always been a top actress.”
Meanwhile, Satomi Ishihara made her debut in the 2003 film “My Grandpa,” and since then, she has appeared in hit dramas such as “Unnatural” and “Dear Sister,” receiving great love for her solid acting skills and unrivaled visuals. Satomi Ishihara married a ordinary man in 2020 and gave birth to her child in 2022. After focusing on childcare, Satomi Ishihara has returned after a three-year absence.
