A Glimpse into Suzu’s World: “Tonari no Suzu.”

Suzu has garnered significant popularity as an influencer, primarily engaging with women in their teens and twenties through content focused on beauty, fashion, and lifestyle across various social media platforms. Her YouTube channel, “Suzu 스즈,” boasts over 350,000 subscribers, with her “Get Ready With Me” (GRWM) videos alone surpassing 1.45 million views. Her authentic and relatable portrayal of everyday life resonates deeply with her audience.

“Tonari no Suzu.” is more than just a photo essay; it’s a heartfelt collection that showcases Suzu’s multifaceted expressions through newly taken photographs, including self-styled fashion looks. The book also features essays where Suzu reflects on her nine-year journey, expressing gratitude and sharing her personal thoughts with the fans who have supported her throughout.

In an excerpt from the book’s introduction, Suzu shares her motivation:

“I wrote this book with the feeling of quietly sitting right beside you. There are days when I push myself too hard trying to be perfect, and living in the world of SNS, my heart can unknowingly waver due to expectations or the numbers I see. But even when I’m weak, I can still move forward, and even my hesitant, wavering self is truly a part of me. In this book, I’ve gently enclosed all of that, including those wavers. The title ‘Tonari no Suzu.’ was chosen with the desire to softly be there for you when you open this book. On tough days, on days when you can’t quite smile, if you open this, I’ll always be next to you. Please turn the pages at your own pace.”
