Owarai tarento Chihara Junia, who was appointed as a poster about hikikomori in Kochi prefecture, said "Don't worry alone", visited the prefectural office and called for understanding based on her own experience.
Chihara Junia visited the Kochi Prefectural Office on the 11th and had a talk with Governor Hamada.
Mr. Chihara was in a state of withdrawal when he was in junior high school.
The prefecture appointed Mr. Chihara for posters and leaflets in order to deepen his understanding of hikikomori through his feelings at that time.
Mr. Chihara told Governor Hamada, "There is no correct answer that we should deal with people who are withdrawn, and I do not know what triggered the opening of the door, so I hope that my movement will trigger something. I'm thinking. "
The prefecture has released a video of Mr. Chihara appearing on the prefecture's homepage, and will be able to receive leaflets at municipalities and social welfare councils in the prefecture by the end of this month.
After the talk, Mr. Chihara told the hikikomori party, "You don't have to rush because the timing of going out is different. It may be triggered by touching something or hearing something. I want you to keep the desire to go out. "
