&TEAM’s song “For us” has been decided as the TV commercial song for the “BLACK FRIDAY” campaign of “Mitsui Shopping Park LaLaport” and “Mitsui Outlet Park,” operated by Mitsui Fudosan Commercial Management Co., Ltd. For &TEAM, this is the first time a song has been used in a TV commercial. The TV commercial will begin airing sequentially nationwide (excluding some regions) and will be broadcast until Sunday, November 29. This commercial features Ai Mikami and Riku Hagiwara, who are attracting attention as talented actors. “For us,” chosen as the tie-up song that colors the visuals, is an emotional song that powerfully sings of the energy to move forward as oneself and the will toward the future. Its lively beat centered on HIPHOP and its friendly pop melody synchronize brilliantly with the world of the commercial, creating a finish that further drives viewers’ sense of excitement. &TEAM, which continues to make great strides both in Japan and overseas, has successfully completed an Asia tour covering 14 cities, achieved one million sales for four consecutive works, and ranked 20th on Billboard 200, the main chart of U.S. Billboard, the highest ranking ever for a Japanese boy group. The nine members, whose momentum is sweeping the music scene, will make their presence felt in living rooms through their first TV commercial tie-up. Their unstoppable momentum continues, and expectations are rising for even greater developments in the future. ■CM Overview Mitsui Shopping Park LaLaport / Mitsui Outlet Park “BLACK FRIDAY” TV Commercial Cast: Ai Mikami, Riku Hagiwara Featured song: &TEAM “For us” Broadcast period: Saturday, November 7, 2026 – Saturday, November 28, 2026 Broadcast area: Nationwide (excluding some regions) ■Related link &TEAM official website ■CM Overview Mitsui Shopping Park LaLaport / Mitsui Outlet Park “BLACK FRIDAY” TV Commercial Cast: Ai Mikami, Riku Hagiwara Featured song: &TEAM “For us” Broadcast period: Saturday, November 7, 2026 – Saturday, November 28, 2026 Broadcast area: Nationwide (excluding some regions) ■Related link &TEAM official website
