Interview
in Japan, 30 Oct 1998
Ken cried in the interview...
Ken was returning to the location of "Ten to Chi to" (Heaven and Earth). It was a large scale movie with him playing a leading role.
Ken said, " it is like the shutter of my memory has been closed... since this is the place where on of my dreams shuttered..."
The narrator said, "at the age of 29, when he was establishing an unshakabel status as an actor, Ken was diagnosed as acute myelongenus leukemia. This was the location of 'Ten to Chi to' from which he has to resign due to the sickness. Ken said having been on the edge between life and death, he started to look at life in a difference way."
So touching....
