Quotes

“When choosing the next work, I focused more on the script with a different genre or atmosphere.”

“Many people seem to enjoy romances because they can put aside their worries while watching such dramas. Romantic comedies have the power to make people’s hearts flutter and bring joy at the same time.”

“I want to stay in this state of mind, I don’t want to get shaken, and I don’t want to get tired. I think I’ve matured over the past 15 years because I never got too excited, too happy or too sad.”

“I wanted to do something that the people would appreciate. A funny romance story set in a pleasant mood is what everyone likes. And, since it’s a romantic comedy, I expected a good vibe among the director, the staff members, and the cast.”

“I learned that sometimes I just need to go with the flow and that I’ll never become complacent.”

“When you think of what you want in the thin air, it feels like you catch a hold of something. At first the outline glimmers vaguely, and then suddenly it comes reality.”

“I haven’t felt completely satisfied with my life yet. It might sound unhappy, but perhaps it means that the standard in my head is that high.”

“I like things that are natural and light. I want to be a person who doesn’t provoke or irritate, just like a piece of paper. Sometimes, it can be hard to keep it plain because I have my hot temper and fire but having this mindset keeps me neutralized.”
