What an interesting Q&A! Somethings we already knew, some we suspected, some we just learned! Yunyuru is very hard to pronounce for someone like me~ :laugh:

There really is no good translation for the word he used. It's usually translated as selfish, but it means that in the sense of doing what you want and refusing to be stopped by others or circumstances... Like the things he does that make fans joke about Brian's hair. :laugh: It doesn't refer to greed or stinginess or anything like that, although that could be a manifestation of it (clearly not in Yuzu's case). I think headstrong would be a much more accurate translation in this context.

If in that context then I consider the term Driven? Someone who is driven is so determined to achieve something or be successful that all of their behaviour is directed towards this aim
Did the term meant it that way?
Thanks for the clarification, languages are so interesting.

I think "driven" is a little too neutral/positive. It's definitely not a positive word that he used, but not as negative as "selfish".

Wasn't this from the press conference post-FS press conference?

I’m not sure. I’m only reading the translations so it may be that different translations done by different people gave me the false impression that it is a different interview I’m reading 😅 There has been so much contents coming off from Worlds that I get confused.
But either way, it makes me want to give him my ankles if I could 😭
 
Its really hard to say what's going to happen from here.
But he seems determined still and with that it makes me thankful.
He did say in hi beauty blog he is investing in the future.
I believe him in that.

Not just Hong Kong, the advertisement is being played around China now too :) I am surprised his endorsements haven't thought of using him in ads in China until now given his immense popularity there.

I love how the Japanese subway has the "Otonal' version of the advertisement whilst the HK subway uses the "Origin" version.
 
I love the Hong Kong Kose poster.
People who are not familiar with him will definetly give it a second look.
How can you resist such natural beauty.

I wonder if people recognize he is an athlete wearing the costume of a sport...:biggrin:

It is interesting to read the comments by fans who share their routines for sleeping. I haven't read all of them (there are 744 comments already) but I noticed a fan said he/she tried some parts of Yuzuru's choreography that she was capable of :laugh: And many of them watch his performances before they sleep :)
