Oath of the EyesImori Miyuki

Miyuki Imori is well known for her cheerful persona on variety shows, but her career began as an idol singer from Shimonita, Gunma Prefecture.

In 1984, she won the Grand Prix at the 9th HoriPro Talent Scout Caravan, which had about 120,000 participants—a true Cinderella story! She made her debut in April 1985 and helped color the idol pop scene of the 1980s.

One of her signature songs is Hitomi no Chikai, for which she received a commendation in the Newcomer Emerald Award.

For those who only know her as a TV personality, I hope you’ll experience the fresh charm of Miyuki Imori, the singer!
