MESSAGE

Guided by a love for the local community:
—An unforgettable experience that connected Joetsu with its people

My decision to enroll at KIFL was inspired by my participation in this activity during high school. Precisely because I know my hometown of Joetsu and my alma mater so well, I’ve made it a priority to reach out to each member individually to ensure that everyone can enjoy our activities.The role of leading high school students and first-year students was more difficult and carried more responsibility than I had imagined, but being able to run the Joetsuアンテナショップ across school and grade levels was a valuable experience that I could not have gained anywhere else.
