(インタビュー＆文：坂本ゆかり）

"Do they still remember me?" is her worry.

-It's almost your Japanese debut. how are you feeling?

"It's almost here!" I'm excited. Of course, I'm a bit anxious but I want to sing in front of my Japanese fans soon. The release fate feels far away. I have Japanese fans who have been there for me all the way. So for the fans, I'd like to do my utmost best.

-Nicole as a solo artist had her first performance at the Saitama Super Arena last April 22nd for the KCON2014 JapanxM COUNTDOWN event. A lot of your fans came.

It's been a long time since I performed in Japan, so I was worried "Do they still remember me?" But a lot of people came to support me, so I was really happy. Although I was nervous, it all went away with the voices of the fans... From the stage, I saw a lot of my fans. I thought: I should do my best in Japan too! I felt supported.

-On this day, you announced your June debut and also performed "Something Special" for this first time. How was the fans' reaction?

I also want to know what they thought of it. I wanted to hear their voice. So I took off my ear monitors. They were cheering so loudly I was relieved and happy. I was nervous for nothing (laugh).

2nd part coming soon.
