Geinojin

“Geinojin ha koko ni kitta, ne…”

“An entertainment star came in here” the young convenience store clerk giggled nervously to a customer.

“Sou desu ka? Kowaisou?”

“Really? Was it scary?” the customer asked.

The word “kowaisou” means frightening or scary. Beware not to confuse this with “kawaisou” which means pathetic, or kawaii which is cute. I guess the star could have been any of the above!
