Question from a reader:
What does the “double affair” between Nagano Mei and Tanaka Kei mean? Mei-chan is unmarried, right? At first, I couldn’t believe it, but gradually it started to make me feel uneasy, and seeing photos of them holding hands makes me feel nauseous. If it’s true, I really think Tanaka Kei is quite disgusting.
What is a double
affair, really?
Recently, the topic of the “double affair” between Nagano Mei and Tanaka Kei has been generating a lot of buzz. Initially, I had no idea what was going on and was honestly surprised. Since Mei-chan is unmarried and Tanaka Kei doesn’t seem to fit that kind of image, I started to wonder what it all meant.
The misunderstanding comes from sensational expressions
As mentioned in user comments, the term “double affair” seems to be a misleading expression. It apparently refers to a love triangle involving a Korean actor, which is exactly correct. I was startled for a moment, thinking Mei-chan might be involved in an affair, but upon reflection, that’s not the case. The media sometimes uses sensational language to attract attention, so we need to be careful not to be misled.
Sorting out feelings
That said, I understand the feeling of unease when seeing photos of them holding hands. I often feel a strange sense of discomfort when I learn about the romantic lives of my favorite actors and actresses. Especially when I see someone portraying a character I love involved in such situations, it creates a complicated feeling within me. I remember when an artist I once liked was reported to be in a romantic relationship, and it was a bit shocking. My friends and I joked, saying, “No, that person is mine!” and it turned into an awkward situation. I think that kind of reaction is a manifestation of fan psychology—it’s a real emotion.
