From Koda Gumi

Here`s a preview:

Thanks to Koda Kumi French Fans page on fb

Couldn't be more true.

This FB page got it wrong :/
KKBOX is not the "Chinese" iTunes at all >_<
It's available in several countries in Asia: Japan, HK, Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Macau... But it's not available in China lol

Kumi will be featured as the special guest of the month (J-Pop/K-Pop part) in the July edition of their Taiwanese magazine Let's Music. The title of the article is "在台灣完成旅程的Happy Ending 倖田來未" "Happy Ending: Complete the Journey in Taiwan Koda Kumi".
The picture provided here comes from books.tw (they ship overseas):

It's also available on YesAsia:

Have you guys ever seen this video?

LOL at the whole video hahaha Kumi's dancing near the end is SO GOOD.

@Linoa62:
Lol
Thanks for correcting!

Kuu or better Bon Voyage is really well promoted in Taiwan.
Would be great if it shows somehow in sales or something.

Kumi's little friend is horrible. Lol. I wonder where she's at now in her life and how she felt to see ku rise to the top. Ku is so relaxed but this girl doesn't know what she's doing lol.

So, Kuu has had this charisma since she was a whippersnapper, it seems. Not only are her vocals a lot better than Other Girl's, she just draws the eye to her much more easily. She looked so much more natural.

God, I need this pic in HQ :thud

Where has people gotten their hands on these? :D These are so rare it makes me admire these people who upload them for everyone to see. :)

Anyhoo, Kuu totally outshone the other girl here. I completely forgot there was someone else singing there with her... :D

she looks so tall and skinny next to that girl....isnt that weird XD

oh my god I can't get over how bad the other girl was lmaolmaolmao

Does anyone know if there is a translation of the Japanese version of Twinkle? I know there is already an English version, but I'm curious. I love that song so much. I know its probably about getting over a boyfriend, but I've always thought of the "you" in that song to be universal for anything in life you thought you couldn't live without but are forced to let go of and finding the strength to carry on without.

^ iirc she perfomed a Japanese version of it on BC Tour and the animated PV is also in the Japanese version, but I dont know where you could find the audio tho...

Thanks to If you SeeKumi at JPC
