Nogizaka 46 Dance Battles
It's started. It's Dance Battles.
Thank you, everyone.
This week's guest is Umi, the youngest and 19-year-old professional dancer.
Umi is a member of the D-League Dip Battles.
This season, Umi has participated in almost all the rounds.
Now, let's move on to today's video.
Ayame, don't miss it.
What?
I panicked and it's over.
Umi, the youngest and 19-year-old professional dancer.
That's not true.
He said he doesn't look 19 years old.
That's right.
Umi.
This program is brought to you by DIP Co., Ltd.
Umi, the youngest and 19-year-old professional dancer of the D-League Dip Battles.
He devotes all of his life to dance.
On the day off, Umi is on a team practice.
What is this place?
Is this a ramen shop?
Is this a yakiniku restaurant?
Umi is here.
Oh, she's working.
I'm working at a yakiniku restaurant today.
Do you usually work here?
I have some free time,
so I want to study abroad.
I want to make money for that.
I want to save money.
Oh, I see.
You're going abroad.
That's great.
Studying abroad for dance.
Overseas, where high-level talent thrives,
there are many Japanese dancers
who want to grow and become famous
in a place where dancers long to be.
Wow.
As a place to study abroad,
not only in the U.S.,
but also in China, where dance scenes are popular these days.
Umi is also one of the dancers who dreams of going abroad.
To make money for studying abroad,
he's working part-time on his day off.
I like the atmosphere.
It's young.
It's like a dream.
I want to go to the U.S.
I think it's great.
I want to go as soon as possible.
I think it's great.
He's been cheering me on a lot.
I'm grateful.
I hope I can pay him back someday.
You're getting used to it.
I hope I can pay him back someday.
I knew it.
What is the current situation of dance life overseas?
I asked Shuho, a dancer who has been in New York for five years and has two consecutive world tournaments, about his challenge to overseas.
It's a legend talk.
The corner has begun.
I wanted to be the best dancer in the world.
I was able to do it while working in Japan.
I want to learn the real thing.
I want to experience the real thing.
I think it's a must if you want to be the best in the world.
I want to be the best in the world.
To be honest, I think Japan has a better environment for dancing.
It's safe, so you can practice outside.
There's a studio where you can practice for more than 20 hours.
The people over there are very self-assertive.
I don't think they're very good at working together.
In my opinion, they're like stray dogs.
There are a lot of people like that.
I feel a lot of charm in those people.
I'm really impressed.
I think it's better to quit if you feel halfway.
It's tough.
There's a place where you can't be recognized unless your style is established.
From there, I think I can think of everything by myself.
I went abroad, and there were a lot of people other than me.
There were a lot of people at that time.
But now, there's almost no one left.
It's not such a sweet world.
I went abroad, so I'm not sure if I'll succeed.
I think it's all up to you.
If you're ready, I think you should go.
If you can go.
That's a good story.
It's up to you whether you want to go abroad or not.
A strong resolve to never compromise is essential to success.
Thank you very much.
I always go to work with this.
This is what I wear when I go to work.
I love things I don't know.
That's why I want to know more.
I want to be famous.
There are many people with rich sensibilities.
There are various feelings.
There are roots where dance was born.
I want to see it with my own eyes and have a good feeling.
I have to do it for the time being.
I don't have anything to throw away.
The road to studying abroad is not sweet at all.
The program continues to support Umi, who dreams of the day while being supported by many people.
You're doing it in a small place.
I'm embarrassed.
It's the hardest place to dance.
All the part-timers have a good vibe.
Soshina-san is also from Kinnikuya, but...
Oh, really?
Yes, yes.
He's the type of young man who doesn't cheer up when chasing his dreams.
What kind of stance is that?
Part-time! First, part-time!
That's true.
Only part-time!
That's true. I'd be in trouble if I had to go somewhere.
I told him to quit after he finds the next one.
How was it, Kaki?
Was it a legend talk?
That corner.
New corner.
Is it a new corner?
Legend talk.
He said he really wanted it to reach the dancers,
so I asked everyone to watch it.
I want this corner to continue.
That's true. Let's do a legend talk.
Let's do a legend talk.
I also went to study abroad in Italy.
You studied abroad?
Yes.
If you want to get the world's best manzai, you should definitely go to Italy.
But you shouldn't do it in a casual way.
Legend talk.
Italy.
Legend talk.
What did you do in Italy?
I just went sightseeing.
Sightseeing?
Yes.
Next time, a unique dancer who also has a face as a manager.
Approaching Chiharu's honest side.
