Yoko Minamino Opens “Nanno Club part5” to Celebrate 40 Years in Showbiz

Yoko Minamino Marks 40th Anniversary with Countdown Livestream and Fanclub Relaunch

Iconic actress and singer Yoko Minamino — fondly known to many as “Nanno” — is throwing it back to her roots this year in a big way. 

Celebrating her 40th anniversary in the entertainment industry, she’s just launched a brand-new official fanclub called “Nanno Club part5”, which went live on June 15 at exactly 6:23 PM — a sweet, symbolic nod to her birthday and the day she first debuted as a singer back on 23 June 1985.

Now 57, Minamino isn’t just marking time — she’s opening up fresh ways to connect with fans both old and new. 

The fanclub will feature exclusive goodies including livestream programmes, behind-the-scenes videos, and even handwritten messages, all carefully curated to bring supporters closer to her world.

In a heartfelt message, Minamino shared that while her previous fanclub had taken a bit of a pause, she felt the time was right to start a new chapter.

“I decided to restart the fanclub in a new form. I really want to feel closer to everyone who’s been supporting me — and just enjoy things together. Let’s get excited again!”

To top things off, she’s also planning a special countdown livestream between June 22 and 23, tying in her birthday with her 40th career anniversary — a double celebration for fans to look forward to.

Whether you’ve been cheering her on since the ‘80s or only just discovered the charm of her classic dramas and music, Nanno Club part5 promises a warm welcome and plenty of nostalgic joy.
