When I was 6, I received awards at competitions. Afterward, I saw singers on TV and started liking them, even though the music was different from my classical piano. At the time, I weighed 80kgs, and my parents said I could become a singer if I lost weight so I lost 20 kgs. Even now, I'm working hard to maintain my weight."
