Since JAY'ED is the special guest, so he's invited to that place (The place that you can find lots of new info about Japanese music in Beijing). Some chinese people which is the fans of Japanese music and especially JAY'ED also come to that place. The interviewers ask them and they mention some another Japanese artists. Ayu included and the part of 'Love song' PV showed. While the PV is showed, there's also scrolling text about Ayu's debut info.

Another artists that they mention is KAT-TUN, Arashi, LUNA SEA, Koda Kumi, etc. as shown in their site. So basically the 'artists' here is, the artists got promoted in J-Melo by showing one of their PV.

The title "J-MELO in Beijing" means the theme of the show is about Japanese music in Beijing.
The show is basically showing how Japanese music are popular in Beijing, and you can find some info about the culture there from that show.
So, I'm guessing the next show "J-MELO in London and Paris" will showing how Japanese music become popular in London and Paris.

Hopefully everyone understand my explanation here.

Worldwide broadcast? And her performing in these countries(if she performs) still is a great thing imo.

It would be nice to watch it, since both Ayu & Kumi are there, but I don't live in any of these towns either.

Now, I remember I saw one episode with Emiri Miyamoto, when she was talking about collaboration album - Saint Vox with Jade Valerie.

[truehappiness]

J-MELO usually airs PVs as far as I remember.

I should try to catch this broadcast though~

[AyumiAi]

This is cool

[Kazeyomi]

So.. do they will gonna broadcast some of her live recording?
I know I may be stupid, but I don't get it lol. And I don't know where I can watch it here :/

[Lanz16]

(LOL at my country at being on the top of E-mail Special chart xD)

That's really great!!!


But I can't watch it here

[amorphose]

Does anyone know what channel this on if you've got DirectTV satellite TV? Is it only on NHK World? Cause I'm pretty sure I don't have that channel.

[Bigtop]

Whoa, that's quite interesting...

[asmAyumi1992]

Waah~~ Why my dad don't buy NHK

[rakeru]

So you have to have a special channel to view this? Time to buy a TV and pay for this channel!

[MissElin_]

I think the screencaps say a bit, performances and interviews mostly in the few I've looked at. So I guess we'll be getting at the very least one performance and one english interview, maybe more, considering she is sheduled for 2 of them?

[unhidragtor]

This is not world wide...but it's ok.

[Bigtop]

Because it's officially listed in NHK's site, I don't think this is some kind of an April Fool joke, but let's see how it goes...
