[COSTCO SUBS PRESENTS]

00:00:04.460 --> 00:00:10.000
[Interview with a new member]

00:00:10.110 --> 00:00:15.230
I’m Aya Matarai, 20 years old, currently a third-year student 
at Atomi University.

00:00:15.230 --> 00:00:20.610
I’m studying at the Faculty of Literature, 
Department of Contemporary Culture and Representation.

00:00:21.020 --> 00:00:25.400
We can study about fashion and image expression.

00:00:25.750 --> 00:00:31.600
We make a magazine from scratch in a class.

00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:38.650
I'm working on it in my study group. 
There are a lot of practical classes.

00:00:39.810 --> 00:00:42.897
[WHAT'S YOUR LIFE LIKE?]
Usually after classes, I work part-time.

00:00:43.022 --> 00:00:49.220
I work part-time at my parents’ Korean barbecue restaurant 
and at a nearby Japanese bar.

00:00:49.440 --> 00:00:57.310
During the weekends as well,
I work at both all day.

00:00:57.860 --> 00:01:04.675
Because I like to work so much 
and rarely hang out with my friends.

00:01:04.995 --> 00:01:07.546
They tell me, “You’re a hard worker”.

00:01:07.730 --> 00:01:12.660
[WHAT MADE YOU COME TO TERRACE HOUSE?]
The main reason I wanted to move 
into Terrace House was to find love.

00:01:12.830 --> 00:01:17.990
I've dated with 3 boyfriends. 
My first relationship was when I was 18 years old.

00:01:18.430 --> 00:01:24.640
All 3 boyfriends I’ve had were older than me. 
They were 2 years, 4 years, and 14 years older.

00:01:25.160 --> 00:01:29.360
I tend to be unable to see anything else around me 
when I’m into someone,

00:01:29.860 --> 00:01:32.154
and they were always my first priority at the time.

00:01:32.570 --> 00:01:36.790
My mom warned me not to do that every time.

00:01:36.790 --> 00:01:44.490
I want to consider my own well-being while also having 
a relationship that everyone can acknowledge.

00:01:44.942 --> 00:01:50.053
While romance was one reason for coming,
another was job hunting...

00:01:50.381 --> 00:01:56.426
there are a lot of different people in Terrace House, right?

00:01:57.271 --> 00:02:01.910
I want to absorb their experience and viewpoints,

00:02:02.380 --> 00:02:08.080
and from there I hope that will help me find
the job that suits me best.

00:02:08.419 --> 00:02:12.090
[HAVE YOU LIVED WITH STRANGERS?]
I have never lived apart from my family before,

00:02:12.330 --> 00:02:19.990
and I’ve only done house chores 
while helping my mom,

00:02:20.210 --> 00:02:25.120
so living with strangers fills me with anxiety.

00:02:26.110 --> 00:02:29.240
Since I went to girls schools
from junior high through to university,

00:02:29.670 --> 00:02:34.910
I’m also worried that I won’t be able to 
get along with guys very well.

00:02:36.790 --> 00:02:38.010
[ARE YOU GOOD AT COOKING?]
Yes, I am.

00:02:38.300 --> 00:02:42.460
When I want to eat something, 
I often make it by myself.

00:02:43.410 --> 00:02:44.920
My specialty?

00:02:45.930 --> 00:02:51.160
My ex said that the tastiest thing
I made was Chicken Nanban.

00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:55.875
[WILL YOU COOK FOR A GUY?]
I want to ask the guy I like what he likes to eat,

00:02:55.893 --> 00:03:00.340
and cook it up like it's no big deal.

00:03:00.930 --> 00:03:07.400
[ARE YOUR ASSERTIVE TO A GUY?]
I’m quite assertive and direct 
when it comes to guys I like.

00:03:08.090 --> 00:03:12.160
I’ll ask someone out, like, ”When are you free? 
Can you take me for lunch?"

00:03:12.310 --> 00:03:14.180
I don’t have a driver’s license.

00:03:14.370 --> 00:03:23.780
Like, "Can you take me for a drive?“
I want to get closer to him like that at first.

00:03:24.220 --> 00:03:28.350
When I fall in love with a guy, 
of course I want him to be my boyfriend.

00:03:29.110 --> 00:03:32.110
I would say things like, “I want you to confess to me.”

00:03:33.550 --> 00:03:36.631
[WHAT'S YOUR IDEAL CONFESSION?]

00:03:36.693 --> 00:03:43.440
I'd want him to tell me his feelings in front of the sea 
or somewhere with a great atmosphere.

00:03:45.910 --> 00:03:54.150
[WHAT'S YOUR TYPE?]
I like manly guys who are tanned, muscular, 
and have mustaches.

00:03:54.540 --> 00:04:00.810
Also I like guys who have a manly personality.

00:04:00.871 --> 00:04:05.164
Someone who everyone acknowledge he is manly,

00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:09.360
not wishy washy.

00:04:10.711 --> 00:04:15.422
Also I like manly guys who carry themselves firmly
and who can express themselves clearly.

00:04:16.043 --> 00:04:19.120
[WHO DO YOU LIKE OUT OF THE CURRENT MEMBERS?] 
Taka is the best.

00:04:19.483 --> 00:04:24.408
He looks good but when he shaved his mustache,

00:04:24.400 --> 00:04:35.422
even though he didn’t look very manly, 
he was kinda innocent which I thought was cute.

00:04:35.564 --> 00:04:39.413
I’m attracted by the stark contrast
between his manly and cute side.

00:04:41.050 --> 00:04:44.968
