On November 26th, which was the release date of Toua’s first CD release, 1st EP “I am I”, and also Toua’s 22nd birthday, an in-store event was held at Tower Records Shibuya store B1F CUTUP STUDIO.
The event included a free area where you could enjoy live performances for free, and many fans rushed to celebrate the release of Toua’s 1st EP “I am I” and his 22nd birthday, even though it was a weekday. It was a huge success with long lines forming.
The venue’s lights dimmed, and Toua appeared amid loud applause and cheers, singing her new song “MY Routine” as her first song. Based on the rhythm of reggaeton, they performed a catchy dance full of cuteness and sexiness during the chorus. After he finished singing the first song, the lights illuminated the stage and he said, “Good evening, everyone, this is Toua!” and the voltage in the venue rose at once, and the audience shouted “So cute!” and “I love you!” before continuing. Toua commented, “Thank you! How did you like the new song MY Routine? This song has been my favorite since I was making it, and it will be available for streaming starting on the 27th, so please give it a listen.”
The second song that followed was her first love song, “MEmories.” The heart-wrenching lyrics were heart-wrenching, and the soft singing voice further heightened the sense of unity in the venue.
Then, when Toua announced, “You can take pictures from here!”, everyone held up their smartphones and said, “Everyone, please don’t get excited!”, and the final song “I am I” started with Toua’s typical words. The videos that have been posted one after another on TikTok since its release in July led to a live performance of the song, which has been gaining popularity since its release, and “your true self,” which is also part of the theme of this EP. He delivered a positive message to his fans that affirmed his.
Just when we thought the concert was over, the venue went dark, and a surprise birthday cake appeared for Toua, who celebrated her 22nd birthday on the day of the event, and the venue was filled with a celebratory mood as fans congratulated her.
Toua expressed his gratitude, saying, “I’m so happy! I’m 22 years old, thank you!” At the end, he took a group photo with the fans with the venue in the background, and concluded, “I’m so happy! Thank you so much for today!” After the event, CD signing sessions, two-shot photo sessions, and a farewell party were held for those who purchased the EP “I am I”, allowing them to enjoy interacting with fans.
The release event will be held today, November 27th at Asunal Kanayama in Nagoya, and December 1st at Abeno Q’s Mall in Osaka. The latest information will be announced on Toa’s SNS from time to time, so please check it out.
