FUNKY MONKEY BABYS‘ upcoming single, “Runway☆Beat“, will feature the fresh faces of actor Seto Koji and actress Sakuraba Nanami in their PV and album jacket cover!
If you’re wondering why these two were chosen specifically to highlight both the PV and album cover, it’s because the single “Runway☆Beat” was selected to be the theme song for the movie of the same name. Seto and Sakuraba both star in the movie, and they so they were snapped in the school uniform that they wear in the film.
The PV and the movie share yet another common link: they both revolve around the theme, “If you believe dreams come true, they will.” The PV will consist of two segments in which viewers can see ‘drama style’ scenes between Seto and Sakuraba, and ‘live style scenes’ featuring FUNKY MONKEY BABYS. It’s said that the ‘drama style’ scenes will act as ‘another story’ from the movie.
