Ningxia Night Market, loved by the locals in Taipei. And the 507 underpass of the Banqiao Station, known as a dance spot, where Nicholas himself danced street dance until he went to Korea at the age of 17. He said in an interview, "I think the best charm of Taiwan is the 'people.' Everyone is kind and free. They accept various cultures. It is because I grew up in such an environment that I am who I am now." In addition, as if to support Nicholas's words, there was a surprise that friends who used to dance together appeared with a surprise for the shooting staff at the 507 underpass of Banqiao Station, with a thermos bag containing tofu pudding, tapioca drinks, and homemade side dishes. Furthermore, as an insert supplement, a SPECIAL PHOTO CARD " &TEAM NICHOLAS in Taiwan" was produced, recording Nicholas's daily life in Taiwan for the first time in three years on 12 thick cardboard photo cards. It also includes cuts taken by him, who enjoys photography.

The illustration drawn for this issue, which depicts the scenery of the beloved streets of Taiwan, is a must-see.
