Sbert, an American who has been active in the Japanese entertainment industry for a long time, tweeted on the 31st to encourage Kei Komuro: "HTM2 Kennedy President failed the New York judicial examination twice, and one person failed the 47 times before passing the California judicial examination." Some people also worried that Kei Komuro's failure to pass the exam may affect his and Mako's future quality of life in the United States.
Since September, Kei Komuro has worked as a lawyer in a law firm in New York State. However, the salary of lawyers and lawyer assistants in the United States is hugely different. Lawyers who pass the judicial examination annual salary is about 22 million yen (about 1.24 million yuan), while lawyer assistants only have about 6 million yen annually.
