Yoshikuni is my best friend.

My personal thought is that everyone should be treated equally.

He values his private life.

He traveled around various countries and learned about their cultures.

He was born as an illegitimate child and experienced many difficulties.

Mr. Higashikuni is a famous historian in Japan.

My grandfather used to till his privately-owned rice field.

He was fascinated by the legends of Middle-earth.

Middle-Earth is a fictional world that appears in Tolkien's novels.

He holds a personal grudge against me.
