garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds). first marriage, a virgin until I was 37.

rockHuh?

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)Oh, yes , yes. Don't you know?　I wrote about that, too, in my private novel ("Lost in the Park").

rockUp to 37 is amazing. Isn't that possibly the highest age of anyone who is open?

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)Then we started dating. And (I am) the third. When I first read his work, I discovered the interest of private novels.

rockThat's right.

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)So I guess I still have respect for you.

rockMaybe.

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)Deep discipleship .

rockYes, that's right. I don't want to see them go, don't you?

rock. I am not good at doing things by myself. What I realized when I wrote my novel was that theater is really easy. In theater, you just write something, take it to the rehearsal hall the next day, and everyone can make it interesting. Then, you can blame the actors for the lack of fun. This ease was overwhelming. I think that people who are able to write novels have extraordinary mental strength.

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)Is that a reaction?　. of being alone.

rockI wonder if that's true. I wonder.

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)Did you have anthropophobia?

rockYes . Fear of people, fear of stares. People say, "How did you come to a theater that is the complete opposite of what you are used to when you were so afraid of other people?

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)It took a lot of courage, didn't it?

rockI've been out there with a complete character change. So I wonder what my original character was like. There are often enlightening phrases such as, "It's okay to be just as you are," but I feel that it is a bit crude. . I came out of the workforce with about half of myself killed, and I managed to adapt to it. （I think it is very dangerous to think that it is 100% good to be out (in society).

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)Where is half of it?　Do you feel like you left it in your room?

rockYes, yes, yes , a room. In the sequel to "Hickey Cankle Tornado" ("Hickey Sotonide Temitano"), there are two shut-in protagonists, both of whom go out to get job training at the same time, but one of them kills himself on the same foot. When I went to a support center for shut-ins for about a month, I heard about many cases like that. I knew that it was good for them to leave, but there were also people who felt that leaving was not a good idea and chose to die on their own. I thought that was quite important.

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)I was shocked, wasn't I? （. after watching the DVD (of "Hickey Sotonide Temitano").

rockFor example, I feel that the weight and meaning of the word "shut-in" 15 years ago and the word "shut-in" today are very different. When we did "Hickey Kankoon Tornado" in Korea, the word "shut-in" did not exist in Korea yet. I asked the translator, "So, for example, what would you do if your oldest son is 25 years old and doesn't go to work or school?" I asked him, and he said, "First of all, the parents will make sure that they never let it get out. Well, I guess the situation in Korea has changed now, but I thought, "I'll make sure they don't leak it," was the worst thing I could do. It wasn't even a social issue yet.

In Japan, I think it was "2channel" and the Internet society that popularized the word "shut-in" . People call the word "shut-in" "hikkie" or "home security," and some people get hurt by it, but then everyone takes an interest in it and starts playing with the word. Then, as an extension of that, people say things like, "Well, there are people who don't leave the house for a year. It makes it easier for the family to say, "Well, there are people who don't leave the house for a year. It may seem very crude, but as everyone gets involved in the mess, misunderstandings, and self-serving comments, they come to appreciate the words and the existence of the people. I think Japan is actually a healthy country just because it functions in this way.

So there are definitely feelings like hitting a child or wanting to kill a child because of the pain, and rather than not saying it out loud, I gradually feel lighter as I say it out loud, "That's so egregious! . I feel lighter and lighter as I say it out loud. In the long run, the atmosphere of "Let's all talk about it, even if it's a little more vague," may give birth to the things that we now recognize without concern. Considering this, I feel that I must do something about it, even though it hurts now. So, in that sense, it is also brave.

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)Indeed . I see now that we need brightness. We need to make them squirm.

rockYes, yes.

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)Hey . It could be heavy. Talking about all kinds of hard things in the theater is a good way to counsel yourself, isn't it?

rock. I think it's become amazing.

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds). even if it's only in my brain, it's a very painful event, but when I put it out there like this.

rockThat's very much there, first of all .

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)Good for you. Really .

rockSo, like the fascist director I mentioned earlier, no one is laughing in the real world there. He was saying outrageous things, but everyone just let it slide and thought, "It's time for the show to go away. But when I went out into the world and showed it in front of the audience, they laughed so much. I was saved by that. Also, when I was laughed at for doing something that I took for granted, I thought to myself, "What? You're kidding...? I learned a lot from the audience. I have learned a lot from my clients.

rockThat's exactly what it is. "Why do you pour soy sauce on that?" Right?

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)In "Kanananai," I wrote about the last scene with my boyfriend, and when people read it and said it was entertaining and fun, at first it didn't make sense to me. . It was pretty tough, and I got over it by writing about it. I was determined not to go back to my boyfriend, but he said, "That was entertaining and fun" (laughs). (Laughs.) I was surprised to hear that some people read it as entertainment. It was unexpected, but I realized that there are many different kinds of readers.

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)Oh, I think I might . . that might be the case. That person said that this one ("The Last Day of the Family") was hard for her. He said something like, "Poor Grandma, I feel sorry for you.

rock. I'd like you to write a script someday. I'm bound by the "Wareware no moro moro" script to have him appear in it, so I'd be happy to have him appear in it. I'll be like, "Here it comes, here it comes!" .

rockEh .

garden bonfire (esp. one held on the imperial grounds)From here.

rockIsn't it enough to say, "Oh, no, Mr. Iwai's like that."

all of us(Laughter)
