JAV Actresses Become Idols: fleuЯR Debuts with Two Pop Songs
The entertainment world was taken by surprise as JAV actresses become idols. Popular adult video stars Ichika Matsumoto and Sumire Kuramoto launched a brand-new idol group called fleuЯR, making their official music debut on May 31 with a double A-side digital single: “Sukisugiru” and “Ashita Kumori Nochi”.
With a combined social media following of over 1 million fans, the duo has drawn massive attention—not only for their backgrounds in the AV industry but also for the quality of production behind their debut. The move to the idol scene marks a significant career shift for both women.

One of the highlights of this debut is the talent behind the music. The lyrics and composition were handled by Yasuyasu Aisaka, known for writing songs for legendary J-pop group SMAP. The musical arrangement was led by Seiji Muto, who famously worked on AKB48’s viral hit “Koisuru Fortune Cookie”.
The track “Sukisugiru” delivers a cheerful and traditional idol pop sound, while “Ashita Kumori Nochi” leans into a coming-of-age, emotional duet. A physical CD release is also planned for late July, which will feature a ballad version of “Ashita Kumori Nochi” as a bonus track, along with karaoke versions of both songs.
To celebrate their debut, fleuЯR also launched an official YouTube channel, where fans can already watch the teaser for “Sukisugiru.” The video features Ichika and Sumire dancing and singing in colorful idol costumes, showcasing the classic charm of Japanese pop idols despite their unconventional backgrounds.
From JAV to J-pop: Who Are Ichika and Sumire?
Many fans are curious about the stars behind fleuЯR. Sumire Kuramoto made her AV debut in 2021 with the film MIFD-183, while Ichika Matsumoto has been active since 2019, first appearing in the schoolgirl-themed video SDAB-108.
While it’s not uncommon for entertainers to shift careers in Japan, seeing JAV actresses become idols is still a rare and headline-worthy moment. Their debut proves that with the right production and passion, talent can flourish across genres.
What do you think about adult actresses stepping into the world of idols? Is it a bold move or a natural evolution?
