If there is a character or genre that I have yet to try, then I’m open to it and want to take up the challenge. Recently, I think a variety of dramas are being released, and there are many interesting characters. Although I don’t know what I will play, I’m thinking of it positively. I’ve not yet watched moving. Many around me are texting me about it. I’ve not watched it, so I ask them to explain it to me.
