Hair & Make-up
ROCKY at a salon for hair and make-up
What is his schedule today?
After filming a YouTube content
I've got a fan sign meeting
Via video call!
Conversation with staff while getting make-up!
(Sharing a story of the stomachache caused by yellow tail) I got a stomachache after having yellow tail
I ate it
I guess it was in its season
I kept eating because I liked it
I literally grasped my stomach all day long
[Fan concert in Japan with tight timetables] It might be really exhausting this time
Having a fan sign meeting right away
Doing a concert the next day
Two shoots for magazines the day after that
He keeps practicing in his spare time
[How are you feeling?] I recently feel really well
(He suffered from bad condition :()
I sound nasal right now though
I'm fine with the cold
instead
I'm getting helped from every healthy food
[How was your video call fan meeting?] They can watch the concert
and also have a video call with me
I'm so greatful
My fans always prepare something special
When having a video call
they do something
such as celebrations
Especially
There were some fans
who celebrated for my solo debut
and also for my own concert
I rather have to give them some energy
But I'm getting energy from them
[What's different from the last time in Japan?] I already
did the Japan stage once
Sure there is a little bit of new things
I'd be more relaxed
And having fun too
I'm gonna be really busy today
When I think of HAMO
I feel two kinds of emotions
Ah
When would be the rest?
and
If I work this hard
Won't HAMO be happier?
As much as I'm working hard
So my HAMOs can be more happy
Which is why
I’m giving it all I’ve got
Fighting for HAMOs!
ROCKY’s perfect transformation
Filming Polaroid photos and YouTube videos
Preparing presents for HAMOs
Preparing to film a cover video for YouTube
ROCKY is clearing his throat
Do we need insert shots too?
No rehearsal, just go for it?
Try going over (the lyrics)
And my viewpoint should stay here?
Can you see where (I put my hands)?
(Checking all the details)
Is it better to leave them down?
Will it look awkward?
LOL
This is my summer
Like this?
Okay~
Let’s go for it!
Starting to film!
Finished perfectly!
Choreo practice for the fan concert
Today we’re practicing the choreography for the fan concert
I’ve already appeared (onstage)
Rehearsing like the real show
[Q. Fan concert title ROCKYST] The reason I chose this title for the concert is
Since the album is titled ROCKYST
My name is ROCKY
I want to showcase my name
It’s also my first album
Also
Since it’s my first, I wanted to go with the album title
[Q. ROCKYST's concept] ROCKYST itself is the concept
This time
Phew…
It’s my first solo mini album
So…
All the songs in the album
Will be available to you
Join me in my beginning
The start of solo ROCKY
That’s what this concert is going to be
ROCKY is practicing nonstop
[Q. What did you put the most effort in while preparing?] Every single one of
The b-side tracks
So
Unless they’re ballads, all of them
I made choreography by myself
And I think I just really wanted to
show good performance
[Q. Outfit concept of ROCKYST]
We were trying to prepare
outfits for the concert
But it was umm..
So my album ROCKYST
has this title song called
and I have yet to show the essence of it
So it felt kind of wrong to
add something else onto it
So I just decided to put on the same outfits I wore in my music video
hoping the fans will have a good grasp of the concept of the song
in real life, not just online
That’s why I decided to stick to the original outfits that I wore in the music video
ROCKY already sweating
[Q. Thoughts on upcoming fan concert in Japan] First umm..
It’s been a while
since the last time I saw HAMOs..
I mean..
It’s really been a long time
I’m just really excited and overwhelmed
I’m working hard for my HAMOs
When I get on stage
HAMOs will scream and applaud for me
and the thought of it really excites me
[Q.The first thing you want to do after the concert] After the concert is done, first
I’ll go find a good ramen restaurant
Actually not ramen, what is it called?
What is Shabushabu in Japanese?
Shabushabu?
…Hot pot!
Sukiyaki!
Yea! Sukiyaki! x2
I heard that Yokohama is famous for its Sukiyaki, I looked it up
Yea, stew, Sukiyaki!
Thinking of HAMOs cheering for me
Practicing day after day
ROCKY is working harder than anybody although it’s not easy
Lastly..
To HAMOs..
My dear HAMOs
To be honest..
I was a bit sick
So I had to postpone the concert
but as much as I did,
I practiced even more
for you guys
so that we can enjoy the concert together
So.. I worked really hard on it
Enjoy this performance and
Please look forward to upcoming concerts as well
I’ll be the person, ROCKY, who keeps on improving even more
