“Koi wa Hitoiro,” which will be released on January 16, is a cheerful enka-style song that’s sure to resonate with both women and men.
Be sure to come to Koyasan and Kumano!
Precisely because I have the chance to visit numerous places through song, I have a renewed sense of the warmth of the people of Wakayama, where I'm from, and the richness of the place’s natural blessings.
Once I took a long drive from Wakayama City when I was dazzled by the beauty of the famous Sandanbeki Rock Cliff, and I went from the Kumano Kodo to Koyasan.
I’ve received a work entitled “Nyonin-michi,” and that makes me feel a connection to Kumano.
I've gotten into mountain trekking recently, and I'm looking forward to visiting the Kumano Kodo again.
I hope everyone will visit Koyasan and Kumano!
