[Sports Today reporter Yoon Hye-young] The momentum of five-member rookie band V01D has crossed into Japan.

Since their debut on the 11th, V01D has maintained a packed schedule, appearing on music programs and fulfilling other promotional duties. Recently, a large billboard video shot in Japan surfaced on social media, drawing considerable attention.

The agency said it is running V01D’s title track ‘ROCKROCK’ (樂樂) and the \”Tug of War\” music video on an outdoor display in Shinjuku, Tokyo, for one month through mid-April.

They are also holding a fan verification event: fans who photograph the billboard and post it on social media are eligible to receive signed Polaroids and signed debut albums, a move designed to raise interest in the K-pop rookie band.

Local fans reacted enthusiastically. \”I was surprised to hear a K-pop band’s music playing right in the middle of Shinjuku,\” one said. Others added, \”We didn’t expect a rookie band to start promoting in Japan so quickly,\” and \”Interest in Japanese member Shinnosuke is growing.\” Many fans praised the moment, saying, \”V01D’s heartbeat is pounding strongly in the center of Tokyo,\” and expressed high expectations for the group’s future activities in Japan.

V01D debuted with the mini-album ’01’ and is promoting with the ambition to become the No. 1 band by fusing music, visuals and performance into a single, cohesive narrative. Their music show performances have been praised for delivering a sound that is both lyrical and powerful.
