Konno Asami History
Konno was selected from Love Audition 21 to join Morning Musume as a fifth generation member on August 26, 2001, along with Takahashi Ai, Ogawa Makoto, and Niigaki Risa. She made her debut appearance on the single “Mr. Moonlight ~Ai no Big Band~,” and first appeared on the fourth studio album, 4th Ikimasshoi!.
Although only three girls were expected to be chosen, Konno was the wildcard selection, despite having performed poorly in all areas of the audition. According to Tsunku, he said that although Konno was a “failure”, he picked her for her great potential. Later that year, Konno was the lead in the TV special Morning Musume tokuban: 13-nin-gakari no Kurisumasu. During this show she proclaimed that she was the “spare”. The plot of the show was to prove to Konno that Morning Musume could work together as a 13 member unit and did in fact need and want her there.
She was unexpectedly thrust into a central position in the May 2002 musical, “Morning Town,” receiving the lead role in the second half of the play.
On April 28, 2006, Konno announced her graduation alongside Ogawa Makoto. She graduated from Morning Musume and Hello! Project on July 23, 2006, in order to take the high school graduation exam and enter a university.
On December 14, 2006, it was announced that Konno had been accepted to Keio University, Shonan Fujisawa campus (SFC). Keio University is considered the best private university in Japan.
On June 18th, 2007 it was announced that Konno would be returning to H!P to continue her futsal career with Gatas Brilhantes H.P. It was also announced that she would preform in the summer concert in Nagoya on July 17, 2007. On September 12, 2007, she and other Gatas members would release Gatas’ debut single “Narihajimeta Koi no Bell”.
Konno Asami was a fifth generation member of Morning Musume. She joined the group in August 2001 along with fellow fifth generation members Takahashi Ai, Ogawa Makoto, and Niigaki Risa. She graduated from Morning Musume and Hello! Project on July 23, 2006, to pursue her studies and enter a university.
Konno has since rejoined Hello! Project to continue participating in Gatas Brilhantes H.P. and Ongaku Gatas while still maintaining her studies, thus being the first person to graduate from H!P and then rejoin as a member.
