MNL48 Is Back with New Management and Fresh Energy!
Hey MNL48 fans — get ready because there’s some seriously exciting news coming your way! The Philippines' very own sister group of AKB48 is officially hitting the restart button. After some time under the radar, MNL48 is coming back stronger than ever, now under a brand-new management setup based in Japan. Yup, you heard that right! The group’s operations have been handed over to MNL48 Inc., a newly established company based in Tokyo (their office is at 5F, Nishi-Azabu MK Building, Minato-ku). With this change, the group is set to dive back into the entertainment scene with even bigger dreams.
What’s New with MNL48?
• New Home Base:
To give MNL48 the boost it deserves, MNL48 Inc. was created in Japan to manage everything about the group moving forward. It's like a fresh start with a solid backbone!
• New Leader, New Vision:
Taking charge is Mr. Shingo Sato, a guy with tons of experience in music and entertainment. Under his guidance, MNL48 is aiming to build stronger ties with partners in the Philippines and unlock new opportunities for the group. If you ask me, this sounds like a perfect match to push MNL48 to the next level.
