Perfume’s Comment

KAZUAKI SEKI’s Comment

“When you think of “planning” for the video,
it might sound very difficult. But when we make music videos,
we simply imagine how we want to see Perfume and what we want to see in a video.
Please send us your dreams and passion by participating in this contest!”
