00:00This program is brought to you by Shunmai, who has little experience in the industry,
00:06and Higashibukuro, a program that lets you do what you want to do.
00:14Which do you prefer, Tokyo or Osaka?
00:18I prefer Tokyo.
00:21At first, I was jealous of Tokyo.
00:29I thought Tokyo and Osaka were the same.
00:35But now that I've lived in Tokyo for 10 years,
00:39I wonder what Osaka is like.
00:43I don't think there's a bigger city than Tokyo.
00:47Tokyo has everything.
00:51Osaka has its advantages,
00:54but if you want to live there for the rest of your life, Tokyo is better.
00:58For now, I prefer the countryside.
01:02The countryside is nice.
01:05If you live in the countryside,
01:10what will you do with your job?
01:13Will you quit?
01:14I'll probably make a lot of money and quit.
01:17Are you that kind of person?
01:19Why?
01:20I don't want to work.
01:24I want to make money.
01:27Are you going to quit?
01:29I haven't decided how old I want to be.
01:35For example, I want to be 60.
01:39I don't know if I'll be able to do that.
01:43You're looking at it at your age.
01:47How should I put it?
01:49Do you feel accomplished?
01:51Is it fun to work now?
01:54It's fun.
01:56It's fun.
01:59It's fun when you can eat.
02:03It's fun when you can't eat.
02:11Or is it different?
02:13This is the ultimate choice.
02:17Do you want to live as you are now?
02:21Do you want to live until you're 60?
02:26I'll give you 200 million yen.
02:28So please quit now.
02:30Isn't this the ultimate choice?
02:32It's the ultimate.
02:34I'm 19 years old.
02:36I'm going to quit.
02:38I'm serious.
02:40You're really worried, aren't you?
02:42I'm serious.
02:44I'm worried about Morita.
02:46If you're going to quit, you're going to quit right away.
02:49You're really worried, aren't you?
02:51I'm worried.
02:53You still have a job to do.
02:56I can only see the beautiful side of Morita.
03:00There are days when you slip.
03:03Why are you doing this all the time?
03:06Why are you doing this all the time?
03:09Why do you get paid when you slip like this?
03:17I think it's a job I can't understand.
03:23It's the exact opposite.
03:26I'm an AD and an entertainer.
03:30I have a way of saying this.
03:33There are times when I think the staff is better.
03:38I'm not underestimating you.
03:41I don't think so.
03:43I don't know how much pressure you're under.
03:46We're pretty individualistic.
03:49Yes.
03:51The staff is...
03:53When it doesn't work, it doesn't work.
03:56Team play and individuality.
03:59Let's all share the credit.
04:05You have to make this show a success.
04:08There may be pressure.
04:10We're a team.
04:12Even if this show doesn't succeed, we're a team.
04:17That's what I think.
04:19That's right.
04:21When it's your show, I want you to say something good.
04:26The feeling of the staff is different.
04:29That's right.
04:31Let's do it in the future.
04:33Morita is an AD and I'm an entertainer.
04:35That's right.
04:37I'm going to be an AD.
04:39I'm going to be on the floor.
04:42I'm looking forward to it.
04:44What do you think?
04:46I don't know.
04:48I'm on the camera.
04:52I'm nervous about the show.
04:55To be honest, there are times when I can't think of anything.
05:00I can't think of anything.
05:06When I'm on the floor, I wonder if I can come up with something.
05:16I'm an AD, too.
05:19I'm more calm than I'm on the camera.
05:25I don't know.
05:27I don't know because I'm not in either.
05:29How do you feel about directing a show?
05:33I want Morita to do it.
05:35I don't want to put pressure on him.
05:37Originally, I wanted to be a writer.
05:42Is that so?
05:45I don't know if I'm going to be an entertainer or a writer.
05:47I'm a man who became an entertainer.
05:49That's a good idea.
05:51There is a famous writer called Kawara Chosuke.
05:56He is a famous writer.
05:58He used to work at Downtown Deluxe.
06:03I don't know if I'm going to go to a specialized school.
06:11That's a good idea.
06:12Did you decide on the entertainment world?
06:21I paid off my debt.
06:23I only have 200,000 yen left.
06:26That's amazing.
06:27I paid off my debt of about 2 million yen.
06:29I only have 200,000 yen left.
06:31I have 200,000 yen left in my savings.
06:33I have 200,000 yen left in my savings.
06:35I was wondering what to do.
06:40It was hard for me to write.
06:47I thought it would be a good idea to be an entertainer.
06:53I thought I was good at it, so I quit.
06:57I chose to be an entertainer.
06:59It was in 2006.
07:01I was in the same field as Nabe-chan.
07:05Oh, the writer of this show, Watanabe-san?
07:08Yes.
07:09He's also on our YouTube channel.
07:11Nabe-chan is from Sakigake-juku.
07:13She used to work under Chosuke Kawara.
07:16We're the same age.
07:18That's a world line.
07:20Actually, Nabe-chan and I are the same age.
07:22She went to Sakigake-juku at the same age as me,
07:25and I went to Shochiku.
07:27Actually, we call each other Morita-san and Morita-san,
07:30but I won't call you Morita.
07:35What's your goal as Higashi Mori?
07:39To keep getting bigger?
07:41Well, I think so.
07:43There's a big building in Times Square in front of Gotanda Station.
07:48I want to buy that building.
07:50That's your ultimate goal?
07:52Yes, that's my ultimate goal.
07:56Well,
07:58I'll keep going.
08:00What?
08:01I'll keep going until I'm happy.
08:03You'll keep going until you're happy?
08:05Yes.
08:06Not 200 million yen?
08:08No.
08:09You're not going to quit tomorrow because you're going to do 200 million yen?
08:12Well, I'm going to choose that.
08:15But I think it's amazing that you're worried about that.
08:18If you ask people who are walking here,
08:20they'll definitely choose 200 million yen.
08:22I want to choose that, too.
08:23No, no, no.
08:24Because in your case,
08:27there's a possibility that you'll exceed 200 million yen.
08:29No, that's if I work for decades.
08:32No, no, no.
08:33There's something really amazing in between.
08:35Something really amazing in between?
08:37It's a possibility that you'll get in a few years.
08:39That's what you're worried about, right?
08:41But if you quit, you'll get old at once.
08:45Yes.
08:46You won't be able to see.
08:48You won't be able to talk to people much.
08:51You'll stop thinking.
08:53I think there's something like that.
08:55I think so, too.
08:56But I don't want you to keep working hard.
08:58Of course, I think there's a possibility that you'll be happy.
09:02Do you have an ideal image of me?
09:05An ideal image?
09:06I really want you to be happy.
09:08Really.
09:10I'm telling you I want you to be happy.
09:13I can't see it yet.
09:15I haven't found the ultimate solution yet.
09:18I want you to be a director.
09:22Why?
09:23I think you've done so far.
09:26Don't you think it's a waste?
09:29What's wrong with you?
09:30Do you have something on your mind?
09:32No.
09:34Is it that bad?
09:36I know it's hard.
09:39No.
09:41Don't you want to do it?
09:43Yes.
09:44What do you want to do?
09:46That's what I'm worried about.
09:48I'm 23 years old.
09:50It's easy to quit.
09:52But you're a director.
09:58You have to think about it.
10:00Don't you think it's a waste?
10:03I think I can think about it because I'm Mr. Saraba.
10:08For example, there are other programs.
10:12For example, there are other programs.
10:15I don't think it's a waste.
10:18I'm sorry. I'm late.
10:21I might be late again.
10:25I'm sorry.
10:26I'll ask you again.
10:29I'm sorry.
10:30Thank you for your time today.
10:33I'm going home.
10:34Yes.
10:36I'm going home.
