The site primarily operates through its online social media platform, and has surpassed 500,000 followers on Instagram in just two years since its launch. The name “KOGYARU” is a portmanteau of the 1990s catchphrase “kogyaru” (young girl) and “kodomo gal” (children’s gal). Because the word “GYARU” is familiar worldwide, we chose a name that can be used to reach overseas audiences. In addition to her work as a fashion model, she will make her artist debut in December 2023 with the song “SHIRANKEDO” and will perform live across the country, leading the next generation of gal culture through a wide range of activities.
