I have so many questions, damn i just want to know every single detail, XD.
Is the FIRST LOVE a japanese version ?
Crazy Driver is Ms. Independet ?
Nana and Lizzy will be in this single ?

I need to be patient.

We don't know yet... / Yes / Yes!!

[Utena]

First Love seems to be the Japanese Version coz they talked about pole dancing and stuff so I assume they want to keep the concept for this single but with another song? And since they said that Lizzy will be in the JP MV of First Love, I guess it's because it's the Japanese version.

[adantatu2]

I thought it would be the same korean video, but if they make a japanese video of First Love with Lizzy, that's going to be awesome

[Utena]

I'm not sure, I can't seem to find back the article where I read that so let's not take it for granted just yet... But I'm pretty sure it'll be the Japanese version of First Love.

[visionfactory]

I think it will be like when Orange Caramel released the same PV in korean and japanese

[Utena]

I don't like them. So Random. No concept. Not that everything needs a concept. But cohesiveness and consistency would have been nice. Doesn't even look like they were all a part of the same Photoshoot.

And Raina looking as bad as ever. That black hair has got to go. Her pictures look like early AfterSchool pictures as if that's what she started out as before she grew up, matured, dyed her hair a light color and got sexy. Well in a world where Raina ever turns out to be sexy.

Ka-un? Is that how you say chick's name? Well she looks amazing with her hair here. Love it.

Nana is looking a little basic here too. That hair. Lighten that up.

[AyuHamasaki01]

To be honest, I think the covers look quite cheap. Their Japanese covers tend to look cheap most of the time actually but that's just my opinion.

Jung Ah, did you cut your hair?

[Utena]

Those were taken by a popular photograph (I personnally don't know him at all ahah), Yonehara Yasumasa. The concept is "private and sexy atmosphere". He took around 3000 pictures and carefuly picked the 'best', which you'll be able to find in the 36pages photobook version.

The song is described as groovy with disco sounds and catchy lyrics. They also mention the use of guitars and bass.

Kaeun looks so amazing!!!

[mobius]

^Agreed, Kaeun does look great so does Nana with the brunette.

The covers do look kind of cheap.
