Gian84 has expressed a long-standing love for Japanese writer Junji Ito.
The MBC entertainment program "I Live Alone," which aired on the 13th, depicted Gian84 heading to Japan to meet his idol, Japanese writer Junji Ito.
Gian84 arrived in Tokyo, Japan, on the same day and could not hide his excitement before meeting writer Junji Ito, a master of horror comics. He said, "The reason I like Junji Ito is because the way the story is written is completely different. Unlike the general cartoon format, which grows when you beat a strong character, writer Junji Ito's cartoon is interpreted from a completely different perspective. It's not just a horror cartoon."

"I'm a huge fan, so I watch individual activities, but they don't do outside activities very much," he said. I didn't think I could meet this writer in the first place. I didn't think I would be able to meet a completely different world," he said with a puzzled expression.
He even prepared a suit that was only worn at the awards ceremony once a year and showed enthusiasm for studying interview questionnaires written in Japanese. He said, "I've been studying Japanese for three months. I worked as hard as running time. The teacher took the time to come, and I wrote down a lot of things to say and practiced because I shouldn't be silly and weird to talk," he said, surprising everyone.
"Even if I studied like this when I was young, I wouldn't have been able to go to Seoul National University. It was fun while studying," he added, giving a smile.
