🍓: Hello, I'm NICHOLAS from &TEAM! 🎙️: You've been hiding this whole time, haven't you? There was no sign of you at all during the stage greeting earlier! 🍓: That's right! It's a surprise!! 🎙️: Did JO-san know about this? 🍚: No, I didn't know either lol. 🎙️: When did you realize he was there? 🍚: Well, we were rehearsing the filming, and there was a scene in the dance battle circle where I was waiting nervously. Then NICHOLAS-kun suddenly appeared out of nowhere. I didn't even know how to react. 🍓: JO is seriously amazing. He was so immersed in his own world that he didn't even look at me, even though I was dancing right in front of him! I danced for about 10 seconds, and he still didn't notice me. 🍚: We had been filming from early morning until late at night, day after day, so I was so exhausted that I almost felt like I was losing my mind. But when I actually spoke to him, I was like, "Oh, it's NICHOLAS-kun!” 🍓: You only realized it after talking to me?! You couldn't recognize me just by looking at my face? lol 🦅: None of us knew about it either. NICHOLAS-san suddenly appeared from behind, and JO-kun was acting with his head down. I was just thinking, "Notice him! Notice him!" 🍚: At that moment, he wasn't NICHOLAS-kun. He was his character “Macchin”, performing some seriously cool breaking moves. He was SO cool! 🍓: Thank you☺️ 🍓: They went to incredible lengths to keep everything a secret on set. Even my transportation, hair and makeup, and rehearsals were all arranged separately. At first, I was really looking forward to it and excited to see how everyone would react. But JO didn't look at me at all, so I was a little sad lol. I think when I was dancing during the actual shoot, JO's face was a mix of so many emotions. He had to stay in character, but at the same time, he was probably thinking, "Wait, why is NICHOLAS here?!" I think he had this completely blank, bewildered look on his face. Seeing that made me happy. 🎙️: Sounds like the prank was a huge success! I'm sure the audience was just as surprised, like, "WHAT?!" I heard that NICHOLAS-san originally did street dance in Taiwan. 🍓: Yes! When I first started dancing, I was involved in street dance and learned various styles and genres along the way. I also really love dance battle culture, so I'm very happy that I got to be part of a movie like this. 🎙️: Kantaro-san, who supervised all the choreography, what did you think of NICHOLAS-san? 🕺: I've also participated in dance battles in Taiwan, so I’ve heard that NICHOLAS-san had been dancing since around that time. When he made his entrance in this film, I actually thought, "At this rate, he's going to win the dance battle!". But according to the script, he had to lose. Even so, he delivered a performance that was good enough to win. His dancing was so incredible that I honestly wondered if we could even make the scene work as intended! 🎙️: And what did you think, Director? 🎥: His dancing was absolutely fantastic. I was also really grateful that he agreed to take part in the film. As for the surprise, though, there's a reason behind it. Since this was a cypher, the idea was that you never knew who was going to step into the circle next... 🎥: There was also some backstory behind the scenes: his dancing was so impressive that he'd actually made it all the way through the tournament to reach this point. 🎙️: Right! Everyone here today has already seen the film, but I hope you'll watch that part again with these details in mind.
