Asahi Shimbun GLOBE “The Power to Break Through”

I was featured this morning in the “The Power to Break Through” column of the Asahi Shimbun’s GLOBE section.
What surprised me was realizing that they had written this article after interviewing so many different people!!!
I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who assisted me, including those who did not appear in the article with comments.
In particular, it seems that former University of Tokyo President Komiyama spoke with me for a full hour… I’m truly humbled. And I’m always filled with gratitude.
I will continue to work hard so that I can truly “break through” from here on out.
According to a Facebook post, exactly three years ago yesterday, I was featured in the Asahi Shimbun’s “People” column—thank you very much.
