Kokoro Hasegawa
長谷川心Biography
Kokoro Hasegawa is a 181-centimeter aspiring fashion designer, first-year student at the Geika Institute of Fashion and part-time model for Bon Rouge. Shy, submissive and self-conscious, she is talented at modeling but dislikes aspects of the work and lacks the confidence to leave it because she feels indebted to her manager, Igarashi.
Working with Ikuto at Yanagida's studio gradually gives Kokoro more courage to challenge herself, although self-doubt remains a recurring struggle.
Story spoilers
During the Geika Festival, Kokoro and Chiyuki wager that Igarashi must let her quit modeling if Kokoro takes first place, and she wins. After studying in Paris, she returns to Japan to work for Toh's upcoming brand and eventually recognizes that her feelings for Ikuto are romantic.
