Full quote from Ado
“Hibana” – I originally thought about calling this tour ‘Spark’.
Starting a revolution can also be expressed as “ Spark a Revolution,” and the word “spark” (spark) is often used in contexts such as “start a fire,” “start a fire,” and “cause something.”
If my first world tour was my “Wish,” my next step is to light a fire in the world as a person from Japan. Warm as a spark of fire, even if small, I want to be the inspiration to start something big. “Hibana” is a Japanese word for “Spark.” I want to bring my Japanese heritage with me, so I called this tour “Hibana”, in Japanese.
I hope to show the whole world my growth after the “Wish” tour and bring you the best live performances.
