Ex-AKB48 member, Hoshino Michiru has reinvented her career as�'Michiru', a solo artist and songwriter.

She's already prepared her debut song, "I ?YOU no Gomoji", which will start distributing via Chakuuta on November 10th. The song will be included in a wedding song compilation album, "~LOVE&PEACH~ Kekkon no Uta", scheduled to be available for the 24th. Indeed, "I ?YOU no Gomoji" has already been used as the image song of a wedding company since May!

Michiru joined AKB48 (Team A) in 2005 as the first generation member along with Maeda Atsuko, Takahashi Minami, and�Itano Tomomi, but she expressed that she always wanted to compose songs by herself.

She created a song in 2007 while she was still with the idol group, titled "Ganbare!" (AKB48's producer Akimoto Ysushi added the lyrics). �"Ganbare!" was later used as a BGM for the weather segment on "Super news." �Michiru graduated from AKB48 in June 2007 to pursue her solo career.
