Thanks mastu! here you go, the Korean press' translation.
I got some Japanese' Soul concert report, but they aren't complated.
I hope I can make ASIA LIVE report for people here, if I can get enough time and information.

No, no, don't worry about it! "CM" stand for commercial :mrgreen: So those clips were just of some commercials that laruku has done in the past :mrgreen:

Oh thank you..matsu-san...such a relieving statement. It's a cool thing that laruku also did some commercials.

Don't worry about it...
I've been 10 years Japanese fan but I don't think I have even a half of their works.
I mean, they have a lot of secret events, limited sale stuff, local TV's show that you can never collect even if you living in part of Japan, and especially, magazines are so enormous.
(I remember they were selling more than 10 magazines that raruku is in partly in a month years ago)
So I think it's almost impossible to collect all the works of them. hahaha :shamefulcry:

Let's be positive to think you still have a lot of fun to seek new stuff from them :hehe:

Wow, 10 years! :mrgreen: Yes, they have been in soooo many magazines! I don't think I could ever collect them all :hehe:

I remember when I first got into Japanese Music, I had no idea what "PV" meant...I'm used to it being called a Music Video :mrgreen:

It is true. In other forums about Laruku also they think that they seemed happy in this tour and in this interview. What will have changed? Probably they have more force that never. I hope that they are as now for a long time :mrgreen:

Ok, does anyone know a possible answaer to this question?

After watching my collection of PV's (At the bottom), I've found that about half of them have Westerner's in them. Why do they have westeners in them? As Laruku would surely have to travel to that country (Possibly America) to make their PV.

Do they have a HUGE following in America? Or is it something else?

Anyhoo, the PV's I have (Mostly due to great people on here) are:
As One (Live)
Blurry Eyes
Dive To Blue
flower
Heaven's Drive
Hello
Hitomi no Jyuunin (<-- like the imagery of this one)
Horizon (<-- same with his one)
Jiyuu e no Shoutai
Jyojyoshi
Killing Me (<-- My third fav. song from AWAKE)
Lies and Truth
Link
Love Flies
Natsu no Yuutsu (<-- I think its and She Said)
New World
New World (Live)
Roentgen stories
Shinshoku Lose Control
Spirit Dreams Inside ~another dream~
Vivid Colors
Winter Fall

Also (I think that I asked this one before, sorry), but are there any PV's for:
In The Air
the Forth Avenue Cafe
Shout at the devil
Coming Closer

Thanks.

your welcome guys, but I'm not so long fan, L'arc has more than 15
years history from their first start including independent band days.

it is true that they have a big supporter in America, but there is different reason why they use Westerners in video.
One big reason, it's difficult to gather a lot of Japanese who can promise to keep secret, if you are living in UK, and show up in U2's video, you know, everybody will ask you what they were, how that was, there are so many huge fans around you, so naturally, you gonna make some kind of rumor or something about them. They just hate it.
(So you can see, if it's supposed to be taken separeted movie and use CG to mix the movie, like "killing me" (the japanese were taken different movie from member's and used CG to make them into one movie) you can see japanese actors in it.
And second reason, it's also hard to take outside movie in Japan because again, a lot of fans are waiting for them all over in Japan. so nomally, if they want take a shot outside, they gonna go to oversea.
and the last reason is maybe, Westerner looks more variety than Japanese. As you know Japanese are look almost the same everyone.
And they use English often to make a variety too.
Sometimes, it's better not understand 100 percent because you'll be tired soon.
