[COSTCO SUBS PRESENTS]

[Interview with a new member]

I'm Sota Kono, 25 years old.

I'm working in the IT industry.

When I graduated high school, I started job
hunting without going to university so...

I've been employed for 8 years now. Yes.

[WHAT KIND OF JOB DO YOU DO?]
The company makes game apps,

but the job also involves planning
in the game apps sector and...

considering what we can do in
the market of existing apps.

Considering, in order to get the next app
out, what should we do? That kind of thing.

[REASON FOR JOINING TERRACE HOUSE]
Living with people from my generation,
I want to know when they think what.

What are they feeling?
What things do they want?

If I could see that, I thought it would
be a good opportunity, a good chance.

I want that inspiration.

I want to know those sort of things.

[WHAT IS YOUR TYPE?]
I am usually someone who takes a lot of care...

so, I'd like someone I can feel at ease with.

A broadminded person, no? Well, an
older person, someone composed.

I'm thinking that sort of
women would be attractive.

[WHAT ABOUT APPEARANCE?]
I don't really have a type,
when it comes to appearances.

I don't really care, but,
definitely if she was really plump...

that might put me off but,

I don't think I have a type for looks.

[WHAT TYPE DO YOU HATE?]
I don't know but I'd avoid
someone who is pretty stubborn.

I don't get on with the self-centered type.

[WHAT KIND OF DATE WOULD YOU LIKE
IN KARUIZAWA?]
Hmm... yeah...

I haven't really... well I don't
really know what's in Karuizawa but...

It looks like there's so much nature... so
I'd like to get to see that.

[ARE YOU PROACTIVE, WHEN IT COMES TO ROMANCE?]
For example, there are those people who go out
and hit on girls, and say "let's go speed dating!"

I have no absolutely no
interest in that kind of thing.

I don't pursue those kind of things at all.

[WHAT LED TO THE DIVORCE?]
At 20, I got married only
due to the pregnancy.

Because of that, "Let's get
married" attitude, we got married.

After about two years we separated and...

well, we were really too young, 
and she is the same age as me.

Well, when I turned 20, I was immature.

Well anyway...

things were often awkward between us,
and I just had the thought it was too early.

[HOW OLD IS YOUR CHILD?]
5 years old.

At the moment, we are not meeting.

We divorced when my child was little.

So I might confuse him if I showed up 
suddenly after he becomes self-aware.

Because he's still a kid, I want him to get a
healthy upbringing. I just feel that.

[FROM NOW ON, DO YOU HAVE A GOAL?]
Hmm, probably by my job.

I want to plan things from scratch,
give them form and release them.

That kind of objective, to absorb a lot of ideas and use
that to be able to make something. That'd feel great.
