Kristが「アジアツアーで日本が最初の国で僕はとても幸せです」と言葉を紡ぐと、観客席からも「日本を選んでくれてありがとう」という声が漏れ聞こえた。
日本公演にあたり、両国の要素を少しでもコンサートに入れたいと考えていたKristは、
和太鼓を入れることで日本らしさを、タイの伝統的な踊りでタイらしさを表現。日本公演でしか見ることのできない演出を行い、ファンに特別なものを見せたいという心意気が感じられた。
早着替えなどを交え、Kristのリビングルームをテーマにした空間で繰り広げられるトークコーナーも。リラックスしたKristは、楽しそうにファンからの質問案に答えていく。
その後、「次の曲はここにいるみなさんに向けた曲です」といいながら、日本語の歌詞を交え「Look Om」を披露。回を重ねるごとに上達していく綺麗な日本語に心を打たれたファンも多いはず。
さらに新曲『CALL ME』を披露。リリースしたばかりだったため、日本のファンも歌えることに驚きを隠せなかったKristだったが、（ファンが）歌えると知ると、できれば振り付けも一緒にやってほしいと、追加でリクエスト。
その場で振り付けを教えるKrist。観客席からは「難しいー」という声も聞こえたが、ゆっくりと見本を見せながら楽しそうにするKristと共に、全員で同じ空間を楽しんでいた。

夜公演のトークコーナーでは、「ツアー内容を構成する上で1番重視したことは何ですか？」という質問に答え、「この場にいる皆さんを幸せにすること」と即答し、いかに自分らしさを出せるかを考えて構成したと語った。
何度も「家に帰りたくない」「一緒に帰ってくれる？」「みんなクリスの家に泊まる？」などと言いながら、名残惜しそうに少しでも時間を伸ばそうとするKrist。そんな彼の姿を1秒たりとも逃さないよう見つめる観客。
「楽しい？」「幸せ？」など、観客席に語り掛けながら、満足そうに微笑むKristの姿は、まさに彼が「ソロツアー」という夢を実現させた証であり、幸福に満ち溢れた空間であった。
懸命に練習したことが伺えるステージ構成、音楽とファンを心から大事にする姿勢。
すべてにおいて『プロのエンターテイナー』であることを、ここ日本でも証明した。

A brief live report (English & Japanese) of ”Krist Solo Concert Asia Tour 2023” in JAPAN on April 9th in Kanagawa and 16th in Osaka
Krist came to Japan with his band (Safe house band).
Krist Solo Concert Asia Tour 2023 in JAPAN" held in Kanagawa and Osaka. The tour consisted of a daytime show and a nighttime show, and he performed a total of 4 shows.
This time, we report on the Osaka show.
As in the Kanagawa show, the stage started with the opening short clip.
When Krist stood in the center of the stage, the fans' voltage was already high and they cheered loudly.
At the previous GMMTV FAN FEST in August 2022, the audience could not speak out due to corona restrictions, but this time Krist was close enough to talk with the fans.
When Krist spun the words, "I am very happy to be in Japan, the first country on my Asian tour," there were a voice from the audience saying, "Thank you for choosing Japan( as a first place)"
For his Japan tour, Krist wanted to incorporate elements of both countries into the concert.
He incorporated Japanese taiko drums to give the concert a Japanese flavor, and Thai traditional dances to give it a Thai flavor. The performance was something that could only be seen at a concert in Japan, and it showed Krist's determination to show his fans something special.
The talk corner took place in a space themed on Krist's living room, including a quick change of clothes. A relaxed Krist happily answered the fans' proposed questions.
After that, he performed a song with Japanese lyrics, saying, "The next song is for everyone here. Many fans must have been struck by his beautiful Japanese, which was improving with each performance.
He also performed a new song, "CALL ME". Since the song had just been released, Krist was surprised that Japanese fans could also sing. When he found out that they could sing it, he also requested to fans to do the choreography with him if possible.
Krist taught the choreography on the spot, and although some in the audience said it was difficult, everyone enjoyed the same space with Krist, who slowly and happily showed the choreography to the audience.
___________
During the talk corner of the evening performance, the audience was asked "What was the most important thing for you when you were composing the content of the tour? " He answered immediately, "To make everyone here happy," and said that he had composed the show by thinking about how he could express his own personality.
"I don't want to go home" and "Will you go home with me? Would you stay at Krist's house? " , Krist try not to finish the show. The audience are also trying
not to miss a single moment.
Krist smile with satisfaction as he asked the audience, "Are you having fan?" "Are you happy?"
This is a proof of him, making a dream come true.
His stage composition showed that he had practiced hard, and his attitude was one that truly cherished the music and his fans.
He proved here in Japan that he is a "professional entertainer" in every way.
