I could not get in touch with her; however, I connected
We usually listen to the same famous popular music on TV or radio. However, there are people who pursue independent (indie) music. Many people are unfamiliar with indie bands.

This ceremony is a traditional festival.The ceremony happens at night. There is a man who plays an important role in t
