On September 7 (Sunday), Kep1er appeared at the "MUSE Appointment Commemoration! Kep1er x Naturism Talk Show" held at the 9th floor Festival Square of Hankyu Umeda Main Store in Osaka, as part of "Biople FES 2025 OSAKA". From September 3 (Wednesday) to 8 (Monday), the customer participation event "Biople FES 2025 OSAKA" was held, gathering popular items and new products from the natural and organic select shop "Biople". About 70 popular domestic and international natural and organic brands gathered, along with food, cosmetics, and pre-sale items that energize both body and mind. "Naturism", participating in the festival, is an inner beauty-focused inner care supplement brand, and this is the first time for the MUSE appointment. Due to So Yong Eun's break, six members: Shen Xiao Ting, Da Young, Hikaru, Choi Yu Jin, Kim Chae Hyun, and Huening Bahie appeared on stage. As the MC Nice called out, the members appeared on stage, and cheers erupted from 200 selected fans (Kep1er's fan name). The atmosphere warmed up instantly with the members' customary greeting, "Catch your eye, Catch your mind!". In the opening talk, they mentioned that it was exactly the 3rd anniversary of their debut in Japan on September 7, 2022, and Hikaru smiled, saying, "3rd anniversary! It's a birthday!". Choi Yu Jin also expressed, "We have been running for these three years. It has been quick, but thank you to all the Kep1ers who have always watched over and supported us! I'm happy that you have loved us for three years. Please continue to watch over us. I love you!". As a surprise, a selection of items was presented as a celebration, and Hikaru exclaimed, "Thank you! Can I open it here!?" and opened it on the spot, sparkling with joy, saying, "It's cute!". The discussion then shifted to beauty topics. When asked about her feelings upon hearing about her appointment as a MUSE for Naturism, Kim Chae Hyun reflected, "I was really, really happy because I was interested in inner beauty. I look forward to working with you from now on!". Each member expressed their love for Naturism, with Hikaru saying, "I always drink it at work," and Choi Yu Jin adding, "Not just us, but our male manager drinks it too," highlighting its effectiveness for both genders. Kim Chae Hyun, who loves Japanese ice cream and sweets, shyly said, "After eating delicious food, I drink Naturism to regain my peace of mind (laughs)." During the talk show, each member introduced their "must-have beauty habits even when busy". Huening Bahie mentioned, "I receive personal training twice a week. I absolutely do not skip exercise," while Choi Yu Jin said, "I take vitamins. Physical strength is important," caring for their insides. Hikaru shared, "No matter how busy I am, I wear reflexology slippers to work. The pain becomes addictive (laughs)," and Shen Xiao Ting revealed, "When going out, I always apply sunscreen. This is very important," sharing her secret to maintaining fair skin. In the middle of the talk show, it was announced that Naturism is currently available at Biople and Cosme Kitchen as limited products with benefits. If you purchase eligible products, you can get a member's photo card. Hikaru also promoted, "The back has a self-introduction written on it. Please be sure to get it!" This self-introduction is in a Q&A format, and one of the questions, "My unique hashtag," was explored. Kim Chae Hyun, Choi Yu Jin, and Huening Bahie answered with animals that represent them: "Your white tiger," "Rabbit leader," and "Baby lion," respectively. Hikaru answered with her unique hashtag "I love Hikaru," revealing that she always checks posts with this hashtag. Da Young mentioned her favorite Japanese phrase, "Just wait a little bit," saying, "I've liked this Japanese phrase since before debut. My Japanese teacher told me that saying 'Just wait a little bit' makes fans happy, so I use it," smiling. Shen Xiao Ting wrote "Sunshine," which sounds similar to her name, and the MC commented, "You are the sunshine in our hearts," exciting the venue. In the music topic, they referred to their comeback in August. Huening Bahie described the concept of their new song "BUBBLE GUM" as "a naughty, mischievous image. We returned with that style. It's a song that feels like 'I'll swallow everything!'" Shen Xiao Ting taught a dance move that can be done while sitting, saying, "The key is in the chorus part. The fingers and the expression that pops are very important." When the members danced together with the Kep1ers, the venue became one, and Kim Chae Hyun exclaimed, "So cute! Thank you!". At the end, each member gave a brief greeting. Huening Bahie expressed, "I was very happy to interact with everyone!" Da Young thanked, "Thank you so much to all the Kep1ers who came to see us!" Choi Yu Jin waved to the Kep1ers, saying, "I really wanted to meet you. Thank you!" Kim Chae Hyun called out, "I'm very happy to be a MUSE and to visit Osaka. Please continue to support Naturism and Kep1er!" and Xiao Ting said, "Thank you for making time to come and see us. It's lunchtime now, so please have your meal!" showing concern for the fans. Finally, Hikaru concluded, "Thank you for coming. This was Kep1er! See you again!" and left the stage.
