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.

"渚のはいから人魚" (Nagisa no Haikara Ningyo) is a popular Japanese song performed by Kyōko Koizumi. The song can be translated to "Seaside Modern Mermaid" or "Beachfront Mermaid". The lyrics depict a romantic encounter between the singer and her lover at the beach. The first verse describes the 'cute hips' and the 'dazzling bare feet' of the 'modern mermaid' on the beach, making the singer feel lovesick. The second verse talks about how the singer has secretly changed her clothes inside her car while her lover was looking in another direction, and how they are the first ones to leave footprints on the sandy beach. The chorus of the song states that the singer's feelings are strong enough that they can hardly wait for the summer to come.
The third verse introduces the notion of other girls and boys who are nearby and how they gossip about the couple. The singer challenges her partner, asking him if he will vow to do nothing with her alone, and invites him to explore the deep cove in the vicinity together. The second chorus repeats the idea of the singer's feeling of lovesickness and promises to wait for the summer. It also mentions how the singer is wearing her lover's shirt on her bare skin, making her heart flutter.
The song has a catchy melody, cheerful and upbeat rhythm, which makes it a popular karaoke and party number for young adults in Japan.
