The Kojiki & The Universe Live Tour began in April this year in California and has since gone on to major cities around the world.

On plans for collaborat­ion with J-rock, K-pop or any other artistes in future albums or even shows, he replied in the negative.

“I don’t have any plans to work with J-pop or K-pop artistes for now. However, I am always looking for singers who have amazing voices. Perhaps, you just gave me an idea of a future concert!” he added.

On advice to aspiring musicians today, he says: “Regarding music today, many people try to make money out of music. I never focused on money when I first started. I focused on creating beautiful music and I believe this is what led to my success.”

He further added: “Don’t forget that music is created and has always been created to be beautiful.”

His best memory of Malaysia so far? “Ever since my first trip to Malaysia, I have always enjoyed my stays so it is difficult to pick just one out of many memorable moments. Every time I come, we have a great experience and create wonderful music. I am sure this time will be no difference. No difference at all.”
