In the beginning, I didn't dance that much and stuff.

When I was snowed under with the work of an idol, I didn't have time to think.

People around me called me an idol, so that’s what I was.

If I don’t think about anything, and start with a clean slate, in terms of what I have to do, a lot of different ideas come up, and I can think about things more openly.

I’m not completely at ease at rapping, I can’t do it well yet.

Up until now, I had ideas that I wanted to try but didn’t have the opportunity to do them.

I get even more nervous singing when everyone’s fallen silent, but I really try to communicate the meaning of the lyrics, and there’s people there listening to that, and if they’re moved by it, then I’m moved as well.

I think afterall, a promotion video is a piece of work in it’s own right.

Aside from my work, in my everyday private life, I’m not a very adventureous person. I don’t look for change.

Actually, recording the Suite Chic album was so much fun and while working on this new album, people that I’ve worked with from Suite Chic has lend their voice.
