This moment of art is truly a precious experience.

In this single chant, I feel as if I can hear the ancient principles.

See, art reflects a person's soul.

I'd love to be a comedian as cool as that someday.

I wonder what kind of beautiful world tonight's dance will show us.

The time spent performing arts is an irreplaceable luxury.
