However, her most immediately recognizable hit song, "" "Cinderella Honeymoon" (1978) has been such a consistent feature of monomane talent Korokke's routines, Iwasaki Hiromi has commented that when the intro played in concerts, fans would laugh, so she has ceremonially "gifted" that song to Korokke, whose performance has elongated both their careers. ==Biography== Iwasaki made her official debut in April 1975 with the single ''Nijuushou'', after winning a record contract on the popular Japanese talent competition show ''Star Tanjou!'' in the summer of 1974.
