Kayoko Okubo starts wearing glasses.

Kayoko Okubo, a TV personality who has become more attractive as she ages, is now a favorite of many people. The popular TV personality, however, has not been able to resist the aging process and bought a pair of reading glasses at "Globespecs" a few years ago. This connection led to a conversation between Ms. Okubo and Tetsuya Okada, the store's famous manager. Mr. Okubo seems to be getting serious about wearing glasses. And really, the glasses look good on him.

What's with this hot guy?

First of all, I would like to ask you how you two met.

Okubo:Was it about four years ago?

Okada:It is in front of Corona, so that's about it. Mr. Okubo was at the store.

Why did you go to "Globespecs"?

Okubo:I said to a stylist I get along with, "I want a pair of glasses," and he brought me here. He said, "This place is definitely stylish, so you can't go wrong.

So that's where Okada-san served you, is that correct?

Okada:Yes, it is.

I don't have an impression of glasses for Mr. Okubo.

Okubo:A little reading glasses.... I have always had good eyesight, so I had never had anything to do with glasses. So when my eyes suddenly lost focus, I was a bit shocked.

Does anyone suffer from presbyopia?

Okada:It always happens. I have never seen an exception.

Okubo:No matter how hard you work at anti-aging?

Okada:Preventive measures are not current medicine.

Okubo:If that were the case, there would be no one who would not wear glasses in his or her lifetime.

Okada:Yes, it will be. Is this the first pair of glasses you purchased from us, Mr. Okubo?

Okubo:When you are young, there are times when you think, "I want to change my look with a new pair of glasses! I used to wear inexpensive date glasses at that time, but that was the first time I officially got glasses made. At that time, I wore inexpensive date glasses, but that was the first time I officially got glasses made.

What kind of frames did you order last time you came to the store?

Okubo:I think I asked for something that didn't look too tight and the design wasn't too flashy. So Mr. Okada selected several frames for me, and I chose "Ambarentein. I thought it was the most natural looking.

What was the reason Okada-san chose this for Okubo-san?

Okada:Since it was my first pair, I wanted something light and comfortable. In terms of design, it is not a frame that will change your face a lot. I haven't seen you wearing them in a while, and they look great on you.

Okubo:I think they look super on me too. To begin with, I've lived my life thinking, "I guess I look good in glasses.

I see (laughs).

Okubo:Also, as we get older, the area around the eyes tends to age easily. Dark circles and wrinkles under the eyes. However, wearing glasses can cover those areas as well.

Mr. Okubo is sometimes self-deprecating on TV, but when I meet him in person, he is really nice.

Okubo:Isn't that right?

(laughs). You have become even more attractive over the years, haven't you?

Okubo:You're so nice to say that. Eh, it feels kind of nice.

You look so young all the time, I can't tell how old you are.

Okubo:Yes, I do. I had no idea. So when I said, "I'm going to make glasses," I thought, "What's this hot guy doing? I thought.

Okada:Was that so (laughs)?

Okubo:I was a little nervous because I thought I had just met a really cool, stylish guy. And when he was examining my eyes, he was a bit like a craftsman. He was a bit like a craftsman.
