Yeah, they've been transferred to JKT48. I saw this on the From Japan website:
5 AKB members are making the move from AKB48 with 2 each going to Shanghai and Jakarta!
Sae Miyazawa who is going to join the newly formed SNH48 in Shanghai said that she was extremely happy that she has the chance to be part of the new group right from the start! Additionally "taking all she learnt from AKB48, she wants to get Shanghai pumped up for the new group!"
Shihori Suzuki who is also making the move to SNH48 mentioned that as soon as she was told by Akimoto Yasushi, the founder of AKB48, that she knew she wanted to go. At first, her parents were not so keen on the idea. However, for Shiori, getting the chance to see new places, meet new people and enter a brand new culture is not something she would change her mind on. With a smile on her face, "so in the end, they let me go!" she remarked.
Aki Takajo who is heading to JKT48 said how she wants to make friends with everyone and give fans the chance to get closer to her. Of the move the Jakarta Harukawa Nakagawa said that she was looking forward to working with her new team.
Last but not least Aika Ota who is moving to HKT48 noted that she was happy to be back with Rino Sashihara who moved to HKT48 in June this year.
It looks like its time for the movers to get the language learning books out!!
We hope all our customers in Indonesia and China are looking forward to the move!
"Harukawa Nakagawa"
