VIBY Stars in LINEMO's Documentary-Style Web Ads, Revealing True Feelings Over LINE Calls

VIBY has appeared in the second installment of SoftBank's online-only brand LINEMO's web commercial series "GreenTalk," which was released on the dedicated website today, September 3rd. This marks the group's first collaboration with LINEMO, following their successful debut showcase live "VIBY LAND" at Nippon Budokan on August 31st. The documentary-style commercials feature members connecting via LINE calls from separate locations to share honest feelings they normally cannot express face-to-face. In the "IO×AKITO×KOTARO" segment, the leader, youngest member, and one other discuss how their impressions have changed since meeting and their anxieties about the future. In the "RENKI×RYOHA" segment, current roommates openly discuss past jealousy and unspoken gratitude. Member IO commented that he was initially surprised and anxious about filming without a script, but felt reassured when told their authentic post-debut selves were wanted. RYOHA reflected that the shoot was a precious opportunity to express gratitude to RENKI, who has been with him since training days. Two campaigns accompany the release, offering signed instant photos, PayPay points, and bonus videos unlocked when YouTube view counts reach certain thresholds.
