Hello everyone. This is Noriko from Nihongo Storytime. In this podcast, I speak slowly. Please also listen to my other podcast, Japanese with Noriko, where I speak faster. Now, today is another story from me. It's about Liverpool. Please listen.

I live in Liverpool, England. In November 2024, I moved to Liverpool from Belfast, Northern Ireland. Liverpool is famous for The Beatles. Before The Beatles became famous, they played at a live music venue in Liverpool. That place is called The Cavern Club. Last Friday, I watched a Beatles tribute band live at The Cavern Club.

The tickets for the live show were £20 per person. The live show lasted about three hours. People who looked like the members of The Beatles played many of their songs. Their costumes were also like The Beatles, and it was a very enjoyable show.

Most of the audience was elderly. Everyone listened to famous Beatles songs and danced and sang along. I also stood up and danced during "Twist and Shout." The last song was "Hey Jude." At that time, everyone in the audience stood up and sang together loudly.

If you come to Liverpool, please visit this live house. It's an interesting place where you can feel the atmosphere of that time.

I went to London in June. It was a 3-day trip with 2 nights. The purpose of this trip was to attend a concert. It was a concert of the Korean singer IU. I am studying Korean. I love IU's songs. IU is a female singer and also an actress. She appears in famous dramas and movies.

The concert was on Friday night at Wembley Arena in the suburbs of London. It was sold out. The concert lasted from 6:30 PM for 3 hours. It was very long and tiring, but it was really enjoyable. It felt like a dream. I was able to go to the concert I had always wanted to attend.

Do you go to concerts? Do you have a favorite artist?

Thanks to this concert, my motivation to study Korean has increased. I want to study more and sing IU's songs in Korean. Do you listen to Japanese songs? I am part of the community Japanese Together. I made a playlist of Japanese songs recommended by the community members. I will share the link, so please listen to it.

I like going to museums. There is the Tate Modern Museum in London. I love this museum. The special exhibitions at this museum are always amazing. I saw a special exhibition of Matisse before. It was really wonderful.

The Tate Modern Museum is free, but you need to pay to see the special exhibitions. The special exhibitions are expensive, but they are a very good experience.

This time, I saw a special exhibition about Expressionists. I don't know much about paintings, but when I go to the museum, I find a painting I like and buy its postcard.

The Tate Modern Museum is along the Thames River in London. I recommend walking along the Thames River. You can see many landmarks in London. Do you go to museums? If you have any recommended museums or favorite paintings, please tell me.
