Who is Jane Sue-"Keikiri Success" Calling Free and Generous Dialogue-Yahoo! News

"I think it's not a proxy talk, but a verbalization. I think.” “You speak for a woman’s voice in particular, but…” Jane Su quickly responds to the listener’s mundane premonition. She works as a radio personality, columnist, lyricist and music producer. If you ask me what I do, I can't answer in one word. “Even if people ask me who I am, I would like to maintain the degree of freedom that I am not sure about. On the other hand, he says, "I feel like I'm producing 'Jane Sue' under my real name." I searched for its true identity, which seemed to be visible but not visible. (Text: Iron Takeda / Yahoo!

Video: Who is Jane Sue? I heard it on the radio (75 seconds)

Work isn't about what you do, but who you do it with Jane Sue (43), who took over "Yu Yu Wide" and has been in charge of "Jane Sue life dances" since April last year. It will be broadcast live every Monday to Friday from 11:00 to 13:00. About 40 minutes before the start of the broadcast, I entered TBS and immediately started a meeting. As if interrupting the staff's explanation of the flow of the day in order, he pointed at the staff's hair and said, "Hey, the back part is jumping." The studio was filled with laughter as he kept asking, "Oh, is that true?" A two-hour meeting takes less than ten minutes.

After working as a company employee, he was approached by an old acquaintance of the composition writer and made a guest appearance on the radio. For two years from 2014, she was in charge of Saturday night's "Weekend Worries Relief Radio She Dances with Jane Sue Consultation" and gained popularity. When I was told that I wanted to be in charge of the weekday afternoon band program, the first thing I felt was "I am... I wonder if there is anyone else." “However, when I was a salaryman, my seniors repeatedly told me, ‘It’s not what you do, but who you do it with. I made up my mind that I should be able to do it.”

"I'm not a specialist, I'm a generalist"

After a meeting, Jane is reading through the sponsorship manuscript. "Hey, is '7' in 2017, 'Shichi' or 'Nana'?" (35) replied, "Since I misread it as 1, I think 'Nana' would be good."

Jane, who has repeatedly changed jobs, such as a record company's publicist and an eyeglass sales company, has chosen a place to put herself out of curiosity. He didn't want to be a radio personality or a columnist. "I'm more of a generalist than a specialist. Or maybe it's just my inability to concentrate." Life counseling is a way to fully demonstrate that concentration. As if taking over the first titled program, "Weekend Worries Relief Radio Jane Sue Consultation Dances", she continues to consult with listeners every day on the daytime program "Seikatsu wa Dances".

The consultation on this day, which was interviewed by the bank, was, ``A woman who has never dated anyone before has been confessed to by a man for the first time, but she is wondering whether to accept the confession. I heard from a friend that he writes something like, "But it's okay, I want to go out with you." Jane doesn't give an answer right away. ``There is a lot of information. Indeed, there is a lot of information. Language instead of proxy talk. Instead of giving a straight answer, sort things out for now.

Don't shout "Do ○○!" Rather than presenting an answer to a consultation, it feels like searching for an answer while communicating with the questioner. “I always want to have a conversation. Sometimes I feel like I need to give a straight answer, but I don’t want to. I like talking to people who can think for themselves. Instead of just nodding and believing me after hearing my story, when I hear what you think, I want you to surprise me. Isn't it fun to have time pass by? I want to have that kind of relationship with all of our listeners."

Because I've always thought that "love is tough", I want to convey it

Whether it's a consultation on the radio or a collection of essays that have been published, Without giving an answer, I keep asking honest questions and answers. Don't use words like "in general" or "common sense". I'm just finding out from my experience. "My opinion is formed by empirical rules. There are many consultations and columns about love, but I myself have a lot of points to check and be careful about love every day. But the feeling of love However, I'm wondering if this is really true when it comes to the tendency to place love above all else at the expense of other things. It's easy to be taken away, isn't it? When my legs were taken, I thought, 'I love you and it's tough.' Then I have to tell you."

Each of the published essays has a distinctive title. Her debut work is ``There are 101 reasons why we haven't been proposed to. Wearing armor, taking it off, every day is a battle. ’. Despite being descriptive, titles that are easy to remember continue. Even the titles of the essays are full of Japanese words that make you want to repeat yourself aloud, such as "I've become an old woman, but what about Moritaka?" . The sentences also have a good tempo and style that makes you want to read aloud. What difference do you feel between speaking on the radio and writing?

"Radio requires agility to run from start to finish. Sentences can be edited later, so there is a sense of thinking while speaking. You can adjust the tempo. I read it over and over again in my head and work to improve the tempo.When I was writing a sentence, I never had the feeling that I had come down. I am writing

Free and tolerant dialogue induced by a sense of "stretching"

I call myself a "Tokyo Giant" who knows only Tokyo and cannot travel alone. In the past, a friend once called him "a local talent in Tokyo." People may keep asking, "Who is this guy?"

"I don't remember ever running into a wall and running away, but I have the feeling that a fairly heavy rock was falling. I managed to move that rock and move forward." It was in my late 30s that I was able to look back and say, "I'm a good person."However, now that I'm over 40, it's not like the view has gotten better.In fact, the view is much worse.I just want to see what's in front of me. I've come to realize that even if a rock falls on me, it won't haunt me for the rest of my life."

In swimming, kicking the side of the pool with both legs and moving forward while stretching both arms and floating is called ``Kenobi''. Without scratching the water or flapping your feet, you can move forward with just the energy left from the first kick. “I think I’ve reached the maximum I can do with kicking. , because I think so."

The answer to the question, "Who is Jane Sue?", may be the correct answer to the question, "Keikiri success," which suddenly surfaced in the exchange of interviews. In a society where people don't get along in a murky state and immediately give answers with strong words, Jane's sense of "strength" invites a number of free and generous dialogues.

"That's why I'm like a birdman contest. You see, that feeling of flying at a low altitude all the time." He humbly says that he is kicking because he has no outstanding talent. However, this kick stretch seems to be a talent. While there are many speakers who make themselves look bigger by splashing water with their unnecessary flapping legs, Jane Sue keeps her kicks and takes it easy. Looking at that figure, someone will ask for advice again today.
