Although the history of Saka Koreizaemon is long, they have kept the name until Saka Koreizaemon the 12th. However, the 12th died suddenly of a brain contusion caused by a fall in 2004. After this, there was no successor, and it was thought that the tradition of Saka Koraizaemon, which had been handed down from generation to generation, had come to an end. However, the fourth daughter of the 11th generation revived the tradition as the 13th Saka Koraizaemon. She was the first woman to become the founder of Saka Koraizaemon.
