The "Japanese diva" Koda Kumi was invited to participate in the "2025 Kaohsiung Cherry Blossom Festival" last week. Her classic songs moved the fans deeply, and she surprised everyone by sharing the stage with her Japanese-Taiwanese husband KENJI03.
After the performance, Koda Kumi toured Taiwan, visiting places like Qijin and participating in local fishing activities. Coinciding with the Qingming tomb-sweeping period, she accompanied her husband to Yilan to pay respects to her father-in-law and humorously revealed that her relatives hope she will visit Taiwan again soon, stating, "I will come back!"
Koda Kumi's husband KENJI03 is the lead singer and guitarist of the band "BACK-ON." His mother is from the Taiwanese Atayal tribe, and his father is Japanese. He attended a Japanese school in Taiwan since childhood, allowing him to speak Chinese fluently and develop a deep affection for Taiwan, often returning home to visit friends and family.
She shared on social media that after the Kaohsiung concert, she took the high-speed rail back to Taipei and visited Nanao the next day for tomb-sweeping, saying, "It seems that next week (during the Qingming holiday) is the time for tomb-sweeping in Taiwan, and I felt very good when I went!"
Additionally, Koda Kumi specifically chose a hot spring during her return trip to enjoy and took the opportunity to have dinner with her relatives in Taiwan. She happily said, "We spent a busy and happy holiday, and I am very glad to reunite with everyone!" Her family in Taiwan also hopes she can return soon, and she reiterated, "I will come back!"
