on the 1st, sharing updates on the activities of the Emperor and Empress for the past few months.

the wording of a post about New Year events. Some questioned if the phrase Ohajime in the post
should be Ohajime, suggesting it was a typo. The agency clarified that Ohajime is a polite
expression of Hajime and is a common term they use internally, not an error. Yamazaki expressed
disbelief, stating she wouldn't dare question the language used on the agency's Instagram.
As she incredulously remarked, I mean, it's not like I can go what's this all about.
Looking at the Imperial Household Agency's words, you know? I'd be like, who do you think you are to
say that? Don't put that kind of stuff there. Yamazaki's sentiment was echoed by MC High Heel
Ringo, who agreed, that's right. Don't put that. Yamazaki emphasized the importance of self-check
and not assuming errors would go unnoticed, while Ringo added, you always doubt yourself first.
