Profile

She spent more than ten years of her childhood in the Netherlands and studied in South Korea for a year. Before joining the Lions’ bluelegends as a new member in 2024, she was drawn to the performers’ closeness with fans and their shared stage.

She discovered Korean stadium cheering through videos while in high school. In March 2026, she told MK Sports that she interviewed by video, then travelled for an in-person test before joining Dream Team.

In a 2025 Pacific League interview, bluelegends performer Kotono named jazz as a dance strength and spoke about the shared atmosphere created by Lions fans. She left the Saitama Seibu team after her second season.

At handball games, the stands are close to the court. She told MK Sports that the distance lets her make eye contact with individual spectators. A fan recording dated 17 January 2026 captures her cheering beside an H League court.

In October 2026, she shared a photo for Wonju DB’s 2026–27 season. Skywalkers’ club directory also lists Koto; the directory does not state a season.
