AKB48's Yuki Hirata transfers to Mi-So Co., Ltd

AKB48 member Yuki Hirata has announced her transfer to the talent agency Mi-So Co., Ltd. While she will continue her activities with AKB48, the move is expected to accelerate her individual career and personal growth.

Industry observers note that Mi-So, a relatively new agency established in 2021, may allow for a more personalized approach to her career development compared to larger agencies. This transition follows her rise within AKB48 since joining as a 17th-generation member in 2022 and her recent expansion into acting.
