Five member boy group, B1A4, held their inauguration ceremony for their Japanese fanclub at SHIBUYA-AX on the 19th of August. In addition to their charming songs and dance, and announcing their Japanese debut single, ‘Beautiful Target’ that would go on sale on the 27th of June, they held two other performances in Tokyo and Osaka to the joy of 5,000 people.

B1A4 debuted in Korea last April. The five members’ hearts are jumping over the important event that will celebrate their first anniversary. One song is last autumn’s big hit, the Korean version of ‘Beautiful Target’. The fans were full of cheers for Sandeul, who easily got into the mood of the atmosphere. In the middle, the five members put both their hands above their head, and assuming a stance with their legs apart, they moved their hips from left to right, doing their ‘sprout dance’, to much cheer and applause.

Afterwards, during the talk session, B1A4 were cheerful. During their self-introduction, full of confidence, Sandeul said, ‘I’m the mood maker. The more you chew me, the more my flavour will come out.’ to much laughter from the audience. Afterwards, in order to decide on the logo for BANA JAPAN, the members presented the logos that they had prepared beforehand, and the stage and the audience became one.

In the middle, the part that heated up the atmosphere was the corner in which questions were posed to the fans. ‘Which member is the most popular amongst girls?’ Leader Jinyoung garnered 63% of the votes, to which the other members were booing. At that, Jinyoung said ‘I love you!!’ with a refreshing smile, to the sound of great cheers.

Moving forward without forgetting the heart they had right at the beginning
During their stage performance, they performed 4 songs, including the song that Jinyoung wrote lyrics for and composed, ‘Bling Girl’, and ‘O.K’. B1A4 announced that they will be holding a handshake event on the 30th of June (venue unconfirmed) in the Kantou region, and they will be holding their launch event on the 1st of July at Kawasaki Lazona Plaza.

Aiming for their Japanese debut, the five members who validated their bonds with their fans. Gongchan said ‘Without forgetting the heart that we had right at the beginning, we will work hard and do our best’ and if they put their strength into their words, CNU said ‘It has become a time that we will not forget.’ Jinyoung’s goal of ‘achieving a number one spot on the Oricon chart’ is not an empty dream.
