"May it continue forever."
[Cast] Miki Kobayashi
[Details] It has been about a year and a half since I became involved in this art festival, and during that time I myself have undergone many major changes. There were many days when I couldn't sleep until morning and thought about it on the balcony because of the amount of stimulation. I am very grateful that I met many people, encouraged each other, and became one of these wonderful bouquets. I hope it will continue forever.
