Popularly known as Kyon-kyon, Koizumi made her breakthrough on the TV audition show Staa Tanjou (A Star is Born) in 1981 and her debut followed the next year. The usual string of slickly packaged pop singles, albums, TV dramas and movies followed. She first appeared on the annual New Year's Eve extravaganza Kohaku Uta Gassen (Red-White Song Battle) in 1984, just a week after her movie debut. In 1987, she won the award for the best-selling single in Japan. She was cast quite out of character as the villain in 1997's hit movie Odoru Daisosasen (Bayside Shakedown), which starred Oda Yuji.

Kyoko is one of the few idols from the early '80s to have survived with her image and popular appeal intact. She became less active in her acting career following her marriage to popular actor Nagase Masatoshi in 1995 (she met Nagase when he was taking photos for the magazine AnAn, to which she contributes). But she remained in the public eye through regular TV commercial appearances. While she's old enough to play the stereotypical CM mother, her image remains that of the perky girl next door. Her divorce from Nagase came in early 2004, around the time that she was receiving a lot of offers to get back into acting more. This difficulty in combining marriage and work seems to be a real hurdle for many women in Japanese show business and one of the two usually has to suffer.

もうすぐ春です
心がなぜか急ぎだすわ
もうすぐ春です
素敵な恋を綴りましょう

雪雲が北の空流れて行ったら
陽炎(かげろう)が屋根の上で
ユラユラ揺れだします

気まぐれに髪みだし誘う春風に
つつまれて
彼の腕に抱かれてみたいわ
去年の春より大人になった私
きっと白い蝶になって
飛びたてるわあなたへ
もうすぐ春です
心がなぜか急ぎだすわ
もうすぐ春です
素敵な恋をしましょう

セーターを肩にかけ
いつもの喫茶店
バラの花香る紅茶
ひとりで飲んでいると
窓際で見つめてる
見知らぬ誰かに
親しげに誘われても
許せる気分よ
春夏秋冬季節がめぐるごとに
女の子は恋の花を
咲かせてみたいものなの
もうすぐ春です
心がなぜか急ぎだすわ
もうすぐ春です
素敵な恋をしましょう
もうすぐ春です
心がなぜか急ぎだすわ

もうすぐ春です
素敵な恋をしましょう
