Question from a reader:
I want to know more about Becky, especially regarding what happened in the past concerning her affair.
Becky’s Affair Incident
While chatting with friends, the topic of Becky’s affair incident came up. I liked her, so reminiscing about that time brings up a mix of emotions. Particularly, that press conference was shocking.
The Shock of Bunshun’s Revelation
When Bunshun first reported her affair with Enon Kawatani from “Gesu no Kiwami Otome,” I honestly couldn’t believe it. Becky had such a high favorability rating and was involved in many commercials, so I thought, “No way, this can’t be true.” Even when she held an emergency press conference to deny the affair, I was watching and thinking, “How did it come to this?” However, when Bunshun later published the contents of their LINE messages, I thought, “Oh, there’s no way to recover from this.” Seeing her say, “I’ll just say we’re friends!” made me chuckle a bit, but at the same time, I felt a sense of sadness. Referring to the divorce papers as her “thesis” felt playfully ironic, and I thought it was characteristic of her.
Errors of Youth
Looking back, since Kawatani was still on the rise at that time, I don’t think it was inherently wrong for her to fall in love. However, when it was revealed later that he was married, I wish she could have been a bit more cautious. When you’re young, the passion of love can sometimes get ahead of you. I can relate because I’ve had moments where I got carried away in the past, so I understand her feelings.
Conclusion
Becky’s affair incident had a significant impact on her career and surprised many of us. Relationships are truly complex, and sometimes they can take unexpected turns. Personally, I’ve learned a lot from my own romantic experiences, and I want to continue to think and act thoughtfully moving forward. So, what do you all think about this incident? If you have had similar experiences, I’d love for you to share in the comments. I’d be happy if we could deepen our understanding through sharing our experiences!
