Earlier this year, while there was no schedule to shoot a video for “Hatsukoi”, TGS member Shoji Mei said they wanted a video that would make a lot of people listen to this wonderful song. And so production to make a video was decided on immediately and the members planned to appear in the music video.

But lead vocalist Arai Hitomi had acute bronchitis and their concert “Tokyo Joshi Ryu ‘DISCOGRAPHY’ CASE OF TGS” at Blitz Akasaka was canceled, with only the three members performing a free live.

Because the video shoot was scheduled during the time when Arai Hitomi was recuperating from her illness and it was not possible for the members to shoot the music video. But the members of Tokyo Girls’ Style were close friends with Ōhara Yūno, so she was considered.  So, on February 17th, the video was shot.

TGS member Yamabe Miyu even wrote on her Instagram, “Thank you very much Yuno, I really appreciate it. I hope you all see it on YouTube!”

But now Ōhara will now collaborate for a performance on stage at “TOKYO IDOL FESTIVAL 2018”.  The event will be held on August 3-5 at the Odaiba/Aomori area.
