“Hey Baby 〜Its All right〜〜〜!!
Ganbari sugi wa doku nan de〜〜su!!! ♫“

Beep...
Yes, hello.
Oh, it's you, what's up?
This is rare.

Eh?
“I called because the magazine with big bro Gaku
on the front page has hijacked the stations!”
... you say.

Ahahaha.
Whenever I get a call from you,
I figured it would be something like this.

How is that
talkative girlfriend of your's?

Eh??
“She called me too!
She was quite shocked, saying
『No matter what station you're talking about GACKT-san is there!!』！！！”
... you say.

Ahaha.
Is that so.

I received lots of similar photos
from other friends as well.

Eh?
“Did you change your hairstyle again?”
you ask...

No, I didn't change it.
I just dyed it a different colour.
What should I call this colour...

When summer turns to autumn,
the leaves will dry up right?
Do you get if it I said...
its the colour of the sorrowful feeling you get at that time or
the colour of the leaves as they slowly lose their green?

Eh??
“For such a colour,
how do you request for it?“
you ask...

Hm...
It's kind of a pain.
Normally its... you being shown the colour book
then you say you want this.

The colour I wanted more is different.
That's why, I explain it with words.
Because the hair colour designer
has been the same person I've stuck with for the last 10 years
he understands me.
He gets my nuances.

If you look closely,
I guess you can say its like the colour of tea leaves...
Maybe like a fragrant feeling,
or the really smooth feeling when
those tea leaves are put into the teapot...

Eh?
“Come to think of it, talking about tea leaves
you attended a Nestle's press event didn't you!
I saw it in the morning news!!”
... you say...

You,
aren't you changing topics too much?
Can you do something about that habit of changing topics of your's?

That said,
so you do watch the morning news.
That's kind of different from the image I got.

Eh?
“Everyone watches it!
Big bro Gaku,
are those events unrehearsed?”
you ask...

No no,
we don't do such dangerous things.
We do it properly ad hoc too.
Preferably,
for such press events,
they're usually done in the day time right?

That's why,
in the morning its extremely early.
So, in any case,
the progress schedule for that day
will be checked with the emcees
and the stage and progress directors.
Then, at the same time we check the standing positions and such,
check the setup...
Things like that will be done since morning.

Eh?
“Heh〜〜
That's tough.
These press event things”
... you say...

Of course, its depending on the person,
since there are also those who just come directly.
Because for me preparing is my life.
I don't want to be shocked speechless by the actual thing.
Because no matter what venue it is,
the person in charge of proceedings is the one with the most temper.

When it comes to the actual thing,
we won't know what will really happen.
Besides there's still the time taken for make-up
and preparing.
One thing leads to another,
and we end up starting early in the morning.

If I made a single mistake it would be a total mess.
Because of that,
you'd think that I'm pretty calm during the actual event but,
that's because I'm taking the arrangements put in place seriously.

Eh?
“I bought that machine too!
If it's big bro Gaku can you get it for free?”
... you ask...

Hey!
That's why,
I said you change topics too much.

Also,
even though you're so rich
why are you so susceptible to me?
Please buy your own stuff yourself!

Eh?
“Isn't big bro Gaku
always particular about the stuff you drink?
Is Nestle's coffee
seriously delicious to big bro Gaku too?”

I think it's delicious.
Firstly, because it's fresh.
When it comes to coffee beans, as expected the best are fresh.

No matter what the ingredients are once they oxidise
it will quickly deteriorate right?
It's really well done.
What Nestle has made.

Especially for brewing tea and such,
it would be good for people who don't know anything about it
to try it at least once.

How delicious is it?
I think it's moving though.

Eh?
“Amazing,
it's really like the explanation
that I've heard on TV!!
That said,
for big bro Gaku at least.
you're someone without a TV at home! Ahaha”
... you say.

It's fine right?
Not that I really really need a TV.

That said,
although I don't have a TV
I have a monitor!

Eh?
“What's that!!
In normal houses,
there aren't such things like monitors!
What do you need a monitor for!”
... you ask...

No,
that... well...
For example I use it to stream movies or...
stream live footage...

Eh?
“What's with that!
Big bro Gaku is way too out there!
Why do you even have a lobby at home!”
... you ask...

It's fine alright!
That I have a lobby at home!!
My home is in that style!

Besides,
recently there's the filming for Game Centre too
and since it's often done there,
it's convenient!

Eh?
“I mean,
big bro Gaku said
stuff about monitors and such but,
you don't really know how to use it right?”
... you ask...

You.
Do you think I'm an idiot?

I am actually
really good when it comes to electronics and appliances!
Just that,
when I get close to electrical appliances
they just spoil on their own...

Eh?
“Eh〜〜〜, could it be,
it broke again?
That big monitor???”
... you ask.............

It broke...
I don't know why though.
Really just give me a break...

That's why,
I don't want to put a monitor, seriously.

Eh?
“Gahahahaha!!!
So, what did you do?
Did you repair it?”
... you ask...

No,
since I'm not putting  monitor there any more,
I tried changing it to a projector...

It's pretty good.
I like it.

Eh?
“Whoa〜〜〜 It happened!!
I figured it would definitely turn out like that!!
Is it super huge!!”
... you say...

You,
I didn't do it like that
just because I like it.

I don't have a choice right?
Because things that will spoil will spoil.
That's why I don't want to touch
anything that is electronic.

Well,
since its used for filming as well,
there's a reason for it.

Besides,
because when when I put the screen screen it spoils the scenery,
I tried remodelling and putting it against the wall.
It's quite cool!

Eh?
“There aren't people like that right?
People who just remodel to try it...
Anyway,
are you participating this year as well!???
That New Year's [Kakudzuke]!?”

Ah,
we've already finished filming it...
It's really tough, this year.

I guess you could say... its preposterous.
The kind of events which unfolded.

Eh?
“So what was the result!!
Big bro Gaku, please tell me!!!”
... you say...

You, right,
every year,
don't you always call me and talk
while watching the program on New Year's?

That enjoyment will be lost y'know?
Is that alright??

Eh?
“Well... I'll look forward to it!
I'll call you again while watching TV!!”
... you say...

Yes yes,
got it.
Wait for the recording.

Eh?
“That said,
big bro, where are you now??
You in Japan?”
... you say...

No, I'm overseas.

I just reached Phuket's airport.
Earlier I came here from Bangkok.
Bangkok's terminal
is extremely packed with Russians.

With only Russians to my left and to my right
I was very surprised.
Seriously.

Before coming to Thailand
I had absolutely no idea
as to why
there are so many Russians.

After looking it up,
it appears that the Thai government
has some kind of policy
that lets Russians get a Visa easily.

Eh?
“I have absolutely no idea
as to what you're talking about!”
you say...

You,
should study more.
Seriously.
Well, in other words...

For example,
Filipinos and people with some other nationalities,
can't get into Japan easily.
Because of issues with working illegally and such.
They need Visas.
Even though they're entering Japan.

On the other hand,
people like Americans or the English,
or the French,
with their nationalities they can enter easily.

For Filipinos,
if they wanted to come to Japan they have to request for a Visa
and that request takes a really long time to finish,
yet there's no confirmation at all as to whether or not
they can even get the Visa.

It can be said that more than half are rejected.
My friends have a company which does the application of Japanese Visas
in the Philippines though.
It doesn't get through.

For Russians
its about the same.
They know very well, even as a European country,
which countries they can go to and which they can't.

There are many instances when they can't get a Visa too,
and its also not that simple to come to Japan.

Just that,
among all the South-east Asian countries,
with regards to Thailand, for the Russians
they can easily get awarded the Visas
so a staggering number of Russians
will go to Thailand's resort areas.

You don't know how to read Thailand's Thai language at all right?
Because the characters used are unique.
The Russian language is similarly isn't it?

The characters are like
upturned alphabets.

When going through Thailand's streets in a car,
it feels weird hearing the Thai and Russian language
being used interchangeably.

Since there are also few people who can speak English.
Do you understand with that explanation?

Eh?
“Why is big bro Gaku
going to Phuket?”
... you ask...

You,
you're not listening to what I'm saying right?
Well, whatever.
I've recently come to like Phuket.
The climate is good too so its kind to my body.

Well,
I'll talk more with you next time.
Phuket is great.

Anyway,
it's about time for me to go.
Since they've come to pick me up.
Well then, until next time.
