Welcome to another episode of WOW JAPAN on AFA CHANNEL

I am Valerie, and this is where we share the latest japanese

pop culture, news and trends with you.

First up, let's check out some cool rides from TOKYO BIKE.

Bicycle are a very important mode of transport for the japanese,

and they use it to go everywhere.

Right now, we are in front of Tokyo Bike & we are going to show you

some awesome bicycle in town. Let's go!!

hi i am valerie from WOW JAPAN,

and this is Rony from TOKYO BIKE

and today we will be asking him a few questions about TOKYO BIKE Singapore.

So I heard there that there is TOKYO BIKE in London, Sydney & Tokyo.

So what makes you decide to bring TOKYO BIKE to Singapore?

Before we came in, we don't really see this kind of bikes in singapore,

most of the time the bikes you see are road bikes or sports bikes

which tend to cater more to the sportsmen, the hardcore cyclist

TOKYO BIKE is actually a range of city bikes, urban bikes which is

i would said a bike for everyone for all walks of life,

a very easy bike to ride thats the no.1 selling point. Also, if you look at the bikes, they are very good quality bikes,

and i would said they are very pretty. and that's what attract a lot of customer to TOKYO BIKE.

This is a very special bike, it's call the V2 and very popular with the ladies. Obviously. Actually this is the top selling model and surprisingly a lot of customer are ladies.

Catch me if you can~

Kyary Pamyu Pamyu was in singapore last week.

WOW JAPAN reporter Misa chan will bring you to the press conference for KPP world tour in Singapore, Let's go!

Hi, I am right now at the 100% KPP World Tour press conference, right here.

From now we are starting the press conference, so excited! Stay tuned!

Hello everyone in Singapore, I am Kyary Pamyu Pamyu~

Good timing!

What is this?

This is the mocktail which the bartenders from MAD, Tung Lok group, created after being inspired by your smash hit song, "PON PON PON".

Eh! I'm so happy to hear that!

Isn't KPP so adorable?

Now let's go for an exclusive interview with Kyary pamyu Pamyu herself!

So let's start the questions.

This is your first time performing in Singapore, so what can the audience expect for your concert?

It is my first time doing the world tour and Singapore is the last overseas concert for the world tour this time, so I will give it my all.

And there were many fans waiting for me at the airport, so I'm looking forward to tonight.

I would like to ask you about your fashion.

You are well known as a Fashion Monster all over the world.

What do you think about young girls' fashion in Singapore?

I visited Singapore in January this year, I thought it was cold but it was really perpetually summer! As it is a "Summer country", there were many girls revealing quite a bit of skin so I think they are more into "sexy" fashion.

At time same time, I saw some Harajuku style girls, so I felt they are enjoying their own style in this sunny country.

For those who can't go to Japan, can you recommend an item that they can incorporate into their style?

Oh an item? But I think the combination is the most important thing.

It can bring out a different taste, for example if you combine horizontal stripe clothes and polka-dot clothes.

For myself, I use platform shoes to bring out my personality.

I think it is easy for Singapore girls to adopt this as many girls are already wearing platform shoes.

I think those who like Japanese aritsites like Kyary, love Japanese culture as well,

such as anime, manga and games..

What kind of Otaku are you?

For me, since I was little, I've been watching "Crayon Shin　chan" and currently my song is the theme song of it.

But I'm not really familiar with anime and games.

But I like to play games on the "Play Station 3".

For anime and manga, I watched and read "Crayon Shin chan" since I was little,

and I have the complete manga set of it.

It is "Tokyo Jungle", isn't it?

Yes, is Tokyo Jungle.

I play the game quite often but if I'm asked whether I'm gamer, I'm just like an average person.

So, rather than playing the game on your own, do you prefer watching others play?

Hmm... I like to play it together with my friend.

I'm quite weak, so I prefer to play with somebody.

I see, I see.

I think there are a lot of girls and a few boys who are cosplaying Kyary at your concert.

Are there any costumes which you want to cosplay?

Your outfits usually have a feeling of a cosplay outfit.

But for example, do you have any character of an anime or game which you would like to try to cosplay?

I really like "Sailor moon" since I was little.

So if I had a chance, I would like to try "Sailor Moon" because her hair is very long.

The shark is on your head on the photo for this concert.

Yes, it is on my head.

I heard you really like sharks.

Actually....

I have a gift for you today!

Please take a look.

Amazing! Cute! It's a shark!

Oh, this is?

It is lip-shape tattoo.

Also, you can put your hand inside, you can play around with it, if you like.
