Not just cute!?

Meisa's movie "Subaru" opened in cinemas!
Did you all go to see it?? Last summer she challenged herself as a ballet dancer and put on the toe shoes every day, even in her daily life! (She mentioned it in NHK's "Toprunner" the other day!)
It's a beautiful movie in which you can see Meisa's grim determination as well as her amazing dancing!

I found some great article! At first Meisa seems to be a "cool beauty" and "it's difficult to approach her", but we who work with her every day can see how much she loves her work, how playful she can be and always get more and more bewitched by her charm.

It's from an interview with "Subaru" director Lee Chi-ngai.

Extra!
Here some translated snippets from the interview with the director:

"Subaru is born with a natural gift for dancing. She's also a bit special in other cases as well, which makes her a loner. The comic and the novel are already different, but a movie is something completely else again. You have to convince the audience of that certain something the character possesses, but you only have limited time to do that. When I met Kuroki for the first time, I was immediately blown away and knew that she would perfectly fit in the role of Subaru. She isn't what you call "your ordinary cute actress" and has something very special in her nature."

Kuroki also did almost all of the dance scenes herself, despite her lack of ballet experience. "She's really professional," the director also praised her. "Many recent young actors, actresses and teen idols don't put a lot of effort in their work anymore. Kuroki's attitute and how she deals with her work is really wonderful. She might be the hardest working actress I've ever worked with."
