[Transcript] Hi, this is GACKT.
I’m really happy to have been presented with the opportunity to perform with so many artists from different countries on such a wonderful stage as a representative of Japan.
I believe that this is my first performance in Hong Kong since the International Film Festival in 2012. I’m looking forward to meeting everyone on 22 March.
Alrighty then. GACKT, signing off.
