He has been active all through his childhood.
You are a model, the leader of Run Club, and a caterer "Mina-ya.
Asano:About 60% of my work is for Binaya. The remaining 40% is orchid-related and modeling.
Binaya's boxed lunches are known for being both delicious and healthy.
Asano:For example, I think many people eat natto because they find the taste of the additives in the sauce delicious, rather than because they like the taste of the ingredients. But that is not the essence. Binaya's bento boxes are made with the best of the ingredients and as little additives as possible.
Mr. Asano has a strong image as a runner, but have you been active since childhood?
Asano:I have an older brother and a younger brother, and I used to play outside with them for a long time. We used to play soccer together.
Or learning something?
Asano:My weekday schedule was almost always filled with lessons. I played badminton, swam, played the piano, and danced. I was a very curious child (laughs).
Q: Was there anything in particular that lasted for a long time?
Asano:I did dance in elementary school and started again in high school, so I had been doing it for about four years in total.
What genre of dance is it?
Asano:In elementary school, it was jazz and hip-hop. In high school, it was yosakoi. I am from Hokkaido, so it was not unusual for me to dance yosakoi.
YOSAKOI Soran Festival" is televised and has fans all over Japan, doesn't it?
Asano:I participated in that festival, and I was even interviewed on TV. Customers watching us along the street would wave to us, and it felt great to feel like a big star at that time (laughs).
