Having entered his forties, the reporter asked Kitayama Hongguang if he was no longer confused in his acting career? Kitayama Hiromitsu said that turning 40 feels like a new beginning, because after three or four years of touring, he seems to have a better understanding with his fans. "The so-called confusion, what should I do, how to let the fans enjoy it, etc., I gradually understood it by this time."

Looking back on the three years since he joined TOBE, Kitayama Hiromitsu said that he has almost never taken a vacation in the past three years and has been working all the time. "The speed and intensity of making decisions by myself and taking responsibility have been really solid for three years! After going through this, I became more confident in myself, and my mood to give it a try no matter what, became even stronger. This should be the part where I have grown the most and changed the most."

In the past, he and Takizawa Hideaki were juniors, but now they are the president and his artists. Kitayama Hiromitsu admitted that the relationship between the two parties has not changed at all from before to now. At most, their names have changed. "Normally, they probably discuss business matters, like what to do with this? How to do this project? We advance the work while discussing like this." However, he also revealed that the two of them will travel once a year.

When they heard about the trip, the reporters' eyes lit up. They were curious about where the two of them went for fun last time. Are you a planning J person or a spontaneous P person? Kitayama Hiromitsu revealed that he is a P person. He has no plans and just takes one step at a time. The most recent time was when Takizawa Hideaki invited him and said, "Let's go to Okinawa!" That's how he set off. The reporter recommended taking more than an hour's flight to travel to Taiwan. Kitayama Hongguang also laughed and said, "I'll do that next time!"

Kitayama Hiromitsu was once a backup dancer of Takizawa Hideaki. He learned a lot from Takizawa Hideaki, including the words and deeds of a "zachan" (starring and responsible person) and how to get along with juniors. "These things are not actually asking the other party for advice, but the feeling of learning by observing his back." And he would like to advise the juniors to pay attention to their mentality and expression method. After all, the audience worked hard and saved money, "for that day, they hold on to the hard-earned tickets, just for the people who come to watch the performance on this day...Every person who comes here has a different life and story behind him, so we must be grateful to this group of people, and then, how do we repay this gratitude to them, probably refers to these things."

Finally, when asked if he had any plans to come to Taiwan, Hiromitsu Kitayama expressed that he really wanted to go to Taiwan. "Taiwan is actually very close to Japan. It is a place that I have always wanted to see. I also hope that fans in Taiwan can have the opportunity to come to Japan to watch my concerts. I will continue to work hard so that I can perform in Taiwan frequently. Please support me in the future."
