In “Yuriko’s Eye”, the program’s host, Yuriko Shimazu, recalled an episode of the program in which her job was to get Prof. Kawai to discuss his work, but she noticed that in Prof. Kawai’s kind presence, she was instead tempted to talk about herself. Ms. Shimazu writes about the third episode of the series, which made a deep impression on her.
