Special feature on each and every Gen Hoshino

I believe that we can create better features if we can imagine the faces of our readers.

I want to reach this person, not just anyone. The more specific I can be, the better. In that sense, it was a big deal for me to be able to attend the "MAD HOPE" tour on May 17th, right in the middle of producing the special feature.

When I arrived at the venue about two hours before the show started, a large number of fans were already lining up to buy merchandise. It makes a big difference whether you know what kind of people they are, what their expressions are, and how much they have been looking forward to this day.

During the MC at the concert, Hoshino said, "It's great to be in an arena because you can see every single person's face clearly." Hoshino also tries to reach every single person in this way.

Seeing the expressions of as many people as possible and making as many people as possible happy. On the radio, listening to as many fans as possible and being there for each and every one of them. In this way, what they have built up over the past 15 years is enormous.

I would be happy if I could deliver this special feature to as many people as possible.

At the Aichi concert. An hour after the show ended, there was still a crowd. In the opening interview, Hoshino's comments about the tour were also impressive.
