JO1 appeared at “Midosuji Runway 2024” held in Midosuji, Osaka on November 3rd.

JO1 walked about 1.1km along the fashion runway and performed two more songs, greatly exciting the approximately 700,000 people who had gathered along the roadside and were surrounded by loud cheers.

“Midosuji Runway,” an event that transforms Osaka’s main street Midosuji into a runway for one day only and disseminates entertainment, Japanese culture, performance, etc., was held in 2024 over a length of approximately 2km, the longest ever.

All 11 members of JO1 appeared on the fashion runway, a project unique to Osaka, which has long been known as a textile town. They walked a 1.1km long runway unlike any other in the world, wearing outfits themed around the show’s keywords of “reuse and upcycle.”

While the other models walked from Yodoyabashi to Honmachi, JO1 headed north from Honmachi to Yodoyabashi in the opposite direction.

After walking the runway for about 15 minutes, leader Sho Yonashiro said with a smile, “I had no idea it would be this long!” while saying, “It was fun.”

Then, JO1 gathered on the main stage set up in the center of Midosuji. The song “Love seeker”, released in May, symbolizes the bright and strong power of JO1, and JO1 has also released a cover of “WOW WAR TONIGHT ~Sometimes wake up movement ( JO1 ver.)” were performed.

At the end of the song, they performed a performance where they ran from the stage onto the runway, which drew loud cheers.

When MC Koji Imada asked, “Do you have any memories of Midosuji?”, he mentioned that five of the members are from the Kansai region, and Aoi Kinjo, who is from Osaka, said, “I remember seeing all the fans at Midosuji’s winter illuminations. He prepared an illumination just for me!” he said, surprising everyone.

In addition, Junki Kono, who is from Nara, revealed a surprising memory: “I was job hunting (before participating in the audition) and went to a building around here wearing a suit!”

From November 23rd, his first solo live tour of the year, “JO1DER SHOW 2024 ‘WHEREVER WE ARE’,” is about to begin, and Ren Kawajiri said, “It’s a wonderful show that you won’t regret, so please come and see us!” Please!” he said enthusiastically.
