I hope that in your up and coming tour with DFF in Japan, you will try to go an extra mile of greeting your Japanese fans, not with one line Japanese greetings, but conveying your thoughts in the Japanese language, even if it’s a memorized one. Your Japanese fans will truly be grateful to you. They have embraced you as their own, patronizing your album as they do with their own artists. They will truly be honored and they’ll love you more. This would be a great way of saying Thank You! to them. They are and will be your loyal fans. They are so proud of you, and they put their pockets where their mouths are. It will be in Asia that your super stardom will begin and spread out like a wildfire. Take care and be good always as you are!
