7/9 (Thu) 8:40 PM - Beauty Treatments, Makeup... 26 People Whose Lives Were Transformed by Changing Their Appearance Gather for Frank Talk! Talk Variety Special "THE Shin Sekai Summit" to Air on TBS!!

A special program, "THE Shin Sekai Summit," jointly produced by Creek & River Co., Ltd. (C&R) and TBS, will be broadcast on TBS starting July 9 (Thu) at 8:40 PM. The program is also scheduled to be streamed on TVer.

This talk variety show thoroughly discusses "changing common sense" that overturns past assumptions and new, realistic values of the modern era! The program MCs are Kazushige Nagashima, who possesses a unique sensibility; Ai Tominaga, a world-class top model with an overwhelming presence; and Hikorohie, a comedian with a sharp observational eye. The three will confront the "people living in a new, unknown world" gathered in the studio with their own real-life questions and the honest voices of viewers, without any hesitation!

▼ This Episode's Theme is... "Beauty Treatments & Makeup"!

Beauty treatments and makeup have now become universal means of self-improvement. The studio will feature a leading doctor for "the latest non-surgical procedures" and a specialist performing "hyaluronic acid treatments with no downtime," who will answer real questions about the latest beauty trends.

A large group of people who have "changed their lives" through plastic surgery and makeup will gather, including families who underwent double eyelid surgery together and individuals whose lives were dramatically altered by makeup! Not only will the dramatic processes of people who achieve a complete "transformation" with surprising techniques be revealed, but the MCs will also directly grill the studio guests with sensitive questions like "How did people react?" and "Have you had plastic surgery and regretted it?"

Panelists in the studio include Naoto Ikeda of the comedy duo Rainbow, who holds the top-tier "Japan Cosmetic Association" Cosmetic Concierge qualification; Nao Asahi and Yu Takahashi, who have personal experience with beauty treatments; and ordinary individuals with strong opinions on beauty. Heated discussions will unfold. The sight of people whose expressions and hearts are completely transformed by makeup and cosmetic surgery, going beyond mere external updates, will elicit exclamations of admiration from the studio!

Don't miss "THE Shin Sekai Summit" airing on July 9 (Thu) from 8:40 PM!

[Cast Comments]

<Kazushige Nagashima>

Although this theme was quite distant for me personally, I realized that beauty and self-discipline are also important means and methods. I think it's very good in a way that we can convey real, current information on television. I hope viewers will receive this content and consider it as a trigger to take a step forward in their own lives, thinking, "There are also these kinds of options." I really want everyone to watch.

<Ai Tominaga>

I was happy and it was very good that everyone in the studio was so positive and cheerful. Ultimately, beauty is a "personal matter," and I fundamentally believe it's not something outsiders should comment on. As long as the person is happy, that's all that matters. Through this program, I hope the viewers can feel the happy sense of fulfillment radiating from within the participants.

<Hikorohie>

I felt I learned a lot by listening to the very important stories of everyone in the studio. It wasn't just about techniques for changing one's appearance; it was a time of great learning where I heard their important life stories and ways of living.
