Sakamoto Mashiro, known simply as Mashiro, is a Japanese singer, dancer, former member of KEP1ER (케플러) and current member of MADEIN (메이딘 / メイディン, previously known as LIMELIGHT). Before debuting, she spent several years as a trainee at JYP Entertainment and Pledis.

She participated in MNet's survival show "Girls Planet 999" where she finished in 8th place. As a result, she was chosen as part of the resulting project group and were supposed to perform for 2 years and a half from their debut date.

She made her debut as KEP1ER's co-leader and vocalist with their first mini-album, "First Impact" and were managed by Wakeone Entertainment (웨이크원엔터테인먼트) and Swing Entertainment (스윙엔터테인먼트).

In July 2024, the agencies announced she would not renew her contract and officially ended activities after their concert in Japan. She returned to her agency 143Entertainment (143엔터테인먼트) and was immediately placed as a new member of LIMELIGHT. The group had debuted in February 2023 but the company felt it needed to change.

So, the group was rebranded as MADEIN, new members were added and she re-debuted in September 2024 as the group's leader with their first EP, "Rise".
