The music variety program "M:ZINE" that approaches the works and true faces of trending artists, the 8th episode is a special on &TEAM's charm. On CS TV Asahi Channel 1, more than 40 minutes of unreleased (secret) footage and talks that couldn't fit into the terrestrial broadcast (three times a month) will be aired in a large volume of 90 minutes! TAKI watches YUMA and HARUA making "takoyaki" with concern. Previously, during a live stream, TAKI made a mess during a takoyaki party! Will it be completed successfully this time? Attention is focused. Additionally, the individuality of the members will be explored deeper. TAKI, during his trainee days, downloaded and listened to Mrs. GREEN APPLE's songs even when his phone data was gone. He expresses that "Romanticism" is a part of him, making Wakai Koto from Mrs. GREEN APPLE blush, saying it is "the joy of being an artist." In a project where Wakai Koto wants to become a "dance monster," TAKI teaches "rock dance," YUMA teaches "club steps," and K teaches "moves." Furthermore, moved by the synchronized dance in "Dynamite," announcer Hayashi Mio requests to challenge "Renai Revolution 21." K shares a golden saying he learned during his dance study abroad in LA, that the "origin of dance" is to enjoy it. Moreover, after the recording, a "special interview" just for this program is included, making it a 90-minute special that is twice the length of the terrestrial broadcast. It is a program filled with unreleased scenes that fans will love. ■Program Information "M:ZINE 'Complete Version' &TEAM's Charm Full Open SP" November 24 (Sunday) 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM on CS TV Asahi Channel 1 【Episode 8 Cast】 &TEAM Wakai Koto (Mrs. GREEN APPLE) Tsukaji Muga (Drunk Dragon) Hayashi Mio (TV Asahi Announcer) ■Related Links "M:ZINE" Program Page.
