I am simply a lover of romance dramas. I love seeing heartwarming stories of love at the cinema or on TV, and that simple, warm emotion was the initial catalyst for producing this video series.
However, there is another deeply held wish that led me to start producing and selling this “10-minute international romance drama.”
I love traveling, but honestly, due to historical events in Japan, I used to have a lingering discomfort with people from a certain country.
Then one day, I went to watch sumo wrestling. Sitting right next to me were people from the country I had long felt uncomfortable with. As I was watching, they enthusiastically cheered for the very same wrestler I was supporting!
I was delighted and used my best broken English to tell them about sumo. After the match, the two thanked me. I felt the rigid emotions of anger and sadness I had held in my heart for so long soften and melt away, like ice in warm water, and I was deeply grateful for that moment.
I want to continue traveling. I wish for world peace. How could I convey this simple wish most powerfully to the most people?
It is not through lessons or lectures, but through action. And I truly believe that the thing which warms the human heart the most is love.
Music, sports, and food all easily cross borders, don’t they? My passion is to create a drama that includes all of these elements, showing the power of empathy as two people from different countries overcome cultural and historical walls through love. That is the driving force behind this series.
I am currently engaged in three businesses, including video production. (I will share more details about these ventures later.)
If you ask me if I have any anxiety about working alone, honestly, yes, I have quite a lot. However, my strong desire to achieve world peace through the philosophy of this drama far outweighs that anxiety.
My local dentist, my hairdresser, and even the staff at my local supermarket—they are all truly charming individuals who make me want to see them again. I often wonder if I can become someone like them.
I truly believe there will be people who resonate with my vision and support me.
That’s why I can overcome any difficulties, transform my anxieties into hope, and strive for progress every single day. Your support will complete this cross-border love story.
