Kuroyanagi-san, you were a member of the track and field team, right?
Kuroyanagi:Yes, I was in the track events. I competed in track events from 1500 to 10,000 meters. I also ran a relay race along with that.
It's a very unusual career path to become a model. Moreover, you have already been on the runways of the Paris Collection and the Tokyo Collections.
Kuroyanagi:I am proud to say that I worked hard enough to be satisfied with my efforts during the year and a half between quitting the industrial company, becoming a model, and participating in the Paris Collection. Of course, there were aspects that worked out because of fate, but I worked hard enough to be able to say that proudly.
For example, what did you do?
Kuroyanagi:Aside from my walking practice and diet, I had no career as a model to begin with. Therefore, I first created works to make people aware of my work, and I spent money to do so. I know that is a natural thing for a model to do, but I did it without slacking off. I think there are a lot of people who don't do that.
You are truly an athlete in your mentality of doing what needs to be done steadily and diligently.
Kuroyanagi:In the world of sports, it is a matter of course, and the track and field training I was doing was like a kind of discipline (laughs). (Laughs.) It was like doing what you can do to win.
