KANAKO commented as follows:

We filmed this using the latest technology in ways I had never experienced before.
It's a variety show made possible only in this modern age of innovation. 
Everyone involved was doing something for the first time, feeling excited and experimenting as we went along. 
I can't wait for many people to watch it.
The show has a drama-like structure with solid settings, character backgrounds, and even member colors - it's really fun. 
I play ‘Bibiri Red.' Red is a color I often wear in my usual activities, but with this new lineup of seven members, the filming felt completely fresh. 
The drama team handled the shooting, so I hope people will enjoy the fusion of drama and variety.
