Random UFA people: Up Up Girls plan to release first single "Going My ↑" + a bit of info.

Up Up Girls is an UFA group made up of former Hello!Pro Eggs Sengoku Minami (20), Furukawa Konatsu (19), Mori Saki (18), Sato Ayano (17), Saho Akari (16), Sekine Azusa (15), and Arai Manami (14). They regularly perform at various venues.

They also go by the name UFZS, which is a kpop dance cover group, although they've recently started singing as well. They have announced that they plan to eventually debut in Korea, but there is no official date.

Here they are performing their new single "Going My ↑":




4minute's "Hot Issue"

T-ara's "YaYaYa" and "Roly Poly"


After School's "Bang!"

It's stupid how they are a dance unit as well but barely do any dancing with UP UP GIRLS. :/

I think it's the lack of good choreographers. There's a lack of them in jpop as a whole, tbh.

UFA has some choreographers.

Even if it was a basic idol 2 step, I'd prefer that and having them move around stage than just standing there like they're doing right now.

They do, but I said goood choreographers. When was the last time anyone in jpop had a legitimately impressive dance?

The dances for BoA's Dakishimeru and Lose Your Mind were pretty spot on.

That was quite a while ago though lol, and I don't see UF shelling out Avex kind of money for whoever it was that choreographed those.

BoA is Korean, she probably had her choreographer shipped in.

If I remember correctly she uses the same choreographers in Japan and Korean.
Its probably cheaper and easier for SM/AVEX to do it that way

You take a seat, I was talking about idols. Not singers who put an emphasis on dancing.

the comments by the people after is what truly appalled me

you should more specific tbh, bye<3

I don't make a point of adding (except Kumi) to the end of all my posts <3

"Please keep the crying about Akari to a minimum, kthx."

Thank you.

Interesting. Might look into them.

YES.

I've been a fan of Sekine Azusa's for YEARS ever since seeing an H!P Egg concert, and I'm so excited that she's actually doing SOMETHING now.
