The “Round Two People Exhibition” will be held at the Shibuya store event space TOWER SPACE SHIBUYA from Thursday, September 26, 2024! ~Ticket sales start from 20:00 on Wednesday, September 11, 2024~


To celebrate the release of the photobook “Maaru I Futari” featuring Time Machine 3’s Sekida and Kuuki Kaidan’s Suzuki Mogura, photographed by Kagaya’s Kaga Sho, Tower Records will be holding an exhibition at “TOWER SPACE SHIBUYA”, the event space on the second floor of Tower Records Shibuya, from Thursday, September 26th to Sunday, October 6th.

The photobook “Maaruii Futari” was released on Wednesday, August 28th, and was shot by Kaga Sho of Kagaya, who is also a photographer, and took photos of Time Machine 3’s Sekida and Kuuki Kaidan’s Suzuki Mogura. This is Kaga’s first photobook. The photobook is filled with the two of them going for massages, eating yakiniku, playing with dogs, playing mahjong, going to an amusement park, getting a health check, and showing their natural expressions in nearly 200 pages, and is said to give you the warm feeling you get when you see photos of two pandas.

The “Round Couple Exhibition” will not only feature a panel display of photos from the book and unpublished photos that unfortunately could not be included in the book, but will also feature a photo spot with faces from cuts that caused a big stir on social media, as well as life-size sculptures and commemorative goods for sale. It will be a space where you can feel “warm and cozy” as you are enveloped in the “round kindness” of the “Round Couple.”

Additionally, visitors will receive one of four randomly selected round stickers as a special gift.
