Popular Korean dance and vocal group Tohoshinki attended a press conference for their appearance in the first TV CM after restarting their activities.
Tohoshinki will be working with the 7 & i Group on their summer campaign. In the promotional CM for Sogo-Seibu�s �Silver Bear�s Silver Card,� Tohoshinki dances together with the mascot character, the Silver bear, to their new song �I Don�t Know.�
As the Silver bear was digitally added using CG, Yunho said sadly, �I wanted to meet the bear but it was added using CG�� then looked at the Silver bear which was placed at a side, asking it �Have you been well?� and creating a lot of laughter. Also, with regards to the dance choreography for the new song, Changmin revealed, �Honestly speaking, we only did 15 seconds of the dance for the CM,� and �I�m looking forward to seeing what the whole thing will look like, so let�s anticipate it together,� he commented.
The shooting was done together with both Japanese and Korean staff. Yunho said, �It�s been a long time since we�ve worked with the Japanese staff so I was nervous, but we managed to settle in quickly, and did the shoot with a good feeling,� thinking back to the photoshoot. Changmin said, �I was interpreting (for the staff),� and talked about the episodes.
After both men had viewed the complete CM, Yunho praised the Silver bear, saying �He danced better than we did.� Changmin then retorted, �It�s a pity that his arms and legs are too short,� to which Yunho replied, �But that can�t be helped� with a laugh, showing the closeness between the two.
Also, their participation in �a-nation,� the outdoor music festival organised by Avex, was announced, and Yunho commented, �I�m happy to be able to participate (in a-nation) again after two years. I want to work hard, and will not be defeated by the heat,� and Changmin said, �a-nation is a big summer event, and we are able to participate in it again after two years, so I want to show a passionate stage,� with determination. With regards to the Tohoku Earthquake, Changmin said, �(The victims) must have suffered a lot. I want to tell them, let us work hard together to overcome this (disaster)�
The new CM will start airing on 13 May. The song that was used in the CM, �I Don�t Know,� is being released as a limited edition single. Also, during the campaign period, �Tohoshinki Reccommended Gifts� (Mid-year Presents) will also be introduced via 7-Eleven, Ito Yokado, 7net shopping and other stores.
