大冢爱从一开始就自己给自己写歌，弹钢琴、吉他，被喻为最有亲和力的日本流行音乐偶像。

区域内更多的旅游或将有助于消解部分疑虑，文化同样也发挥着作用：亚洲许多年轻人听着日本流行音乐、看着日本漫画长大；而日本人则同样热衷于韩国的女子乐队和电视剧。

More tourism within the region may help ease some of the misgivings. Culture also plays a role: many young people in Asia were brought up on Japan’s J-pop music scene and manga comics.
