2010–2016: Early career and Nogizaka46

[edit]

In August 2010, Fukagawa won the Grand Prix at the modeling audition of kawaii EXPO 2010, sponsored by Lowrys Farm, and became an exclusive model for them.[7][8] After discussing with her parents, her mother told her to try for a year and come back if it doesn't work but be financially independent.[9] She moved to Tokyo after living in Nagoya for two years,[10][3] and worked part-time while auditioning as an actress and model.[11]

In August 2011, she passed Nogizaka46's first generation audition, having sung Aiko's "KissHug".[12] As Nogizaka46's lessons were only on the weekends and part-time jobs were prohibited, Fukagawa struggled financially.[3] In November, she started her official Nogizaka46 blog.[13]

On February 22, 2012, Fukagawa made her musical debut on Nogizaka46's debut single "Guruguru Curtain", featuring on Type C for the songs "Hidarimune no Yuuki" and "Ushinaitaku Nai Kara". She was selected as a starting member for the first time on the group's third single, "Hashire! Bicycle".[14]

In June 2014, she participated in the Nogizaka46 stage production 16 Principals.[15] She began her first regular solo activity in October as a narrator for Milan TV Milano Milan.[16][17][18]

Fukagawa participated in Nogizaka46's debut performance at the 66th NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen, performing "Kimi no Na wa Kibō".[19][20]

On January 5, 2016, fellow Nogizaka46 member Kazumi Takayama's short story "Carry-over", which Fukagawa illustrated, was published on the website of the magazine Da Vinci.[21][22] Two days later, Fukagawa announced that she would be graduating from the group with their 14th single, "Harujion ga Sakukoro".[23] She had the center position for the first time with the single,[24] and released her only solo song, "Tsuyogaru Tsubomi", with the single.[25] On June 4, Fukagawa had her last handshake event with the group, receiving her diploma from Reika Sakurai.[26] Five days later, she released her first solo photobook, Zutto, Sobaniitai (ずっと、そばにいたい). The photobook recorded estimated weekly sales of nearly 29,000,[27] and ranked second in the book category and first in the photobook category on the Oricon weekly rankings on June 20.[28] Fukagawa graduated from the group on June 16 with a concert held at Ecopa Arena in Shizuoka.[29][30] On July 1, her Nogizaka46 official blog was closed.[31] The bonus backstage video from her graduation was released on July 27 as part of Nogizaka46's 15th single, "Hadashi de Summer".[32]

2016–present: Acting career

[edit]

In September 2016, she moved to the agency Ten Carat, and began working as an actress.[33] On November 21, she appeared on her first gravure cover as an actress for Big Comic Spirits.[34]

In 2017, she took her first lead role in Skip.[35] In 2018, she made her film debut in Bread, Bus, and the Second Hatsukoi.[36] This role won her the Best Emerging Actress award at the 10th TAMA Film Awards.[37] Later that year, she appeared in Manpuku, her first asadora appearance.[38]

In 2019, she starred in Nippon Boro Yado Journey.[39] In 2021, she starred in the movie Omoide Shashin.[40] Later that year, she appeared in her first taiga drama Reach Beyond the Blue Sky as Princess Kazu.[41] Starting in April 2022, she appeared in Tokusō 9 as Yuma Takao.[42][43]
