Personal life

Her qualifications are Kanji kentei Level 2 and a 7 in ink brushing penmanship.
There are various opinions on the origins of her name, but the person herself said, adding "Ko" (虎, Tiger) from the Hanshin Tigers that imagined her hometown of Osaka and "Nan" (南, South) because she was born from the south of Osaka Prefecture.
Her relationship with Yuko Ishida was deep, and when she went to Tokyo she was sharing a room with her.
In Onegai! Muscat and Onedari!! Muscat she had a catchphrase "One wolf in Naniwa". This became the setting of her bullish, Kansai dialect, Hanshin Tigers fan character. In the corner with the same program, since Sola Aoi said "is it good with a gorilla character?", the nickname of the gorilla is established both inside and outside the programme. In addition, Konan herself said: "I can not do gorilla characters because I am doing gravure."
