Greetings,
In this season of amicable spring scenery, I thank you more than ever for your support.
Now then, today, I hae an announcement for everyone supporting Morning Musume, as well as to those it may concern.
I am informing you that I have decided to welcome in "Jun Jun" (Li Chun) and "Lin Lin" (Qian Lin) into Morning Musume as (exchange) members of the 8th generation.
Last year, around the same time as the 8th generation auditions were taking place here in Japan, Junjun was taking part in an audition in Beijing, and Linlin became an exchange student with the Hello! Project Eggs, after being introduced to me by a friend, and I had her perform in concerts and watched her force.
In 2007 and beyond, one of my goals is to expand into Asia, and I decided having the girls be key persons and join Morning Musume would be the best thing.
These two have personalities that haven't been seen in Morning Musume before.
Also, with regards to their singing skill, I strongly believe they are members with "many new possibilities hidden within".
This is Morning Musume's 10th anniversary.
As a vocal unit continuing to move forward while going through graduations and auditions, you've all loved them.
I'm really anticipating what the addition of Jun Jun and Lin Lin, as well as any new evolutions will bring, all while facing even more developments.
With that, I ask for your support of Morning Musume, Hello! Project and myself from here out.
I hope from my heart that you all will have a wonderful Spring.
Sincerely,
March, 2007
Tsunku, Morning Musume Producer
