• 発音: /o.ɕi koɴ/

意味

Marrying someone who resembles or reminds you of your oshi (favorite idol/character) — choosing a partner based on their similarity to your fandom crush.

A playful concept from 推し culture where fans half-jokingly say they want to marry someone who looks like, acts like, or shares qualities with their 推し. Some people genuinely use 推し qualities as a checklist for potential partners. It reflects how deeply 推し culture has influenced romantic ideals and partner selection in modern Japan.
