The rise of Chinese amateur female idol groups and how they're taking cues from Japan
At a club in Shanghai, dozens of young people are jumping and waving glow sticks as they dance to the music, leaning in as if to touch the performers on stage. The performers are Chinese amateur girl groups singing in Japanese, and this is Japan's globalised idol culture. About 20 Chinese idol groups wearing frilly dresses and Lolita-style outfits performed at a recent weekend music event. The emcees sometimes called out to the crowd in Japanese, with shouts of se-no, which means 'all together now', and arigato gozaimashita, which means 'thank you very much'. After the show, fans lined up to chat with the idols at the venue's booths. These meet-and-greet sessions are called 'perks meetings'. The paid service allows fans to take pictures with the idols, get autographs and chat with the girls for a few minutes. An autographed photo and a two-minute chat cost 100 yuan (US$14). Chinese amateur girl group Affloret perform onstage. According to Chinese media, the number of underground idol groups in the country has skyrocketed since the end of pandemic restrictions, from around 40 in 2023 to more than 250 in March 2025.

J-pop idol Kenshin Kamimura fined HK$15,000 after molesting interpreter
Japanese pop idol Kenshin Kamimura has been fined HK$15,000 after he molested a female interpreter in Hong Kong. The ex-member of boy band ONE N' ONLY was arrested in March and pleaded not guilty to indecent assault in April. According to the Associated Press (AP), Kamimura allegedly touched the woman's thigh repeatedly during a celebratory dinner in Mong Kok and invited her to a bathroom elsewhere. The court heard that the interpreter dismissed his advances and told him she had a partner. On Wednesday, Judge Peter Yu said the singer touched the woman in a caressing manner, implying a sexual undertone and indecent intent. 'The defendant's acts are obviously disrespectful toward women… Such behaviour should be condemned,' Yu said, according to the AP. During the trial, Kamimura's defence told West Kowloon Court that the claims were exaggerated and that the alleged invitation to the bathroom may have been innocent, the AP reported. The maximum penalty for indecent assault is 10 years in prison, though Kamimura avoided a jail term after his lawyers argued that he had a promising future and had already paid a heavy price. Kamimura's contract with ONE N' ONLY was terminated in March.

Chinese netizens riled over delay of 731, film about horrific Japanese human experiments
A highly anticipated Chinese film that over 3 million users have marked as 'want to see' on the Chinese ticket-selling platform Maoyan has sparked discussion on Weibo after its release was changed from July 31 to the more ambiguous '2025'. Advertisement The film, 731, exposes the grievous biological and chemical experiments committed by Unit 731 of the Japanese Kwantung Army in Northeast China during the Sino-Japanese war and World War II. Directed by filmmaker Zhao Linshan and starring well-known mainland Chinese actors including Jiang Wu and Wang Zhiwen, the film tells the story from an ordinary civilian's point of view, unveiling the history of the horrific human experiments conducted by Unit 731. Its release was timed to coincide with the 80th anniversary of the end of the Sino-Japanese conflict, but its sensitive content has sparked concerns over whether it will be released on schedule. Earlier this week, several film content creators shared their thoughts regarding the postponement of the film's official release, leading to speculation from netizens.

Other comments pointed out the existence of takedown petitions, presumably due to the nature of the film.
