Oh lord, I was liking Junjun 'till I listened to her singing!

But this is H!P...there's Sayumi on Momusu, she still can't hit a note, but I love her anyway.

So Linlin was a H!P Egg?!...didn't know they had chinese eggs! O.O

O______________________O

Li Chun is pretty damn adorable (as everyone already pointed out) and FINALLY! Over-15

But holy @%^&.. I wasn't expecting this sort of news when I came to check the forums during my lunch. lol - But why put them in MoMusu if they're not staying that long anywho? Am I expecting this to be like when Coconuts Musume came in and stayed for awhile but then eventually leave because of the language barrier?

..I could see if Tsunku put them in like .. a shuffle unit but MoMusu? O__o

This definitely draws my attention and makes the group interesting again (for me).

WOW.. why are SOME people upset about it.. its different and it might be good. Chances are they could AT LEAST speak some japanese. (or maybe even fluently)

Translation of Tsunku's message

Quote

Greetings,

In this season of amicable spring scenery, I thank you more than ever for your support.

Now then, today, I hae an announcement for everyone supporting Morning Musume, as well as to those it may concern.

I am informing you that I have decided to welcome in "Jun Jun" (Li Chun) and "Lin Lin" (Qian Lin) into Morning Musume as (exchange) members of the 8th generation.

Last year, around the same time as the 8th generation auditions were taking place here in Japan, Junjun was taking part in an audition in Beijing, and Linlin became an exchange student with the Hello! Project Eggs, after being introduced to me by a friend, and I had her perform in concerts and watched her force.

In 2007 and beyond, one of my goals is to expand into Asia, and I decided having the girls be key persons and join Morning Musume would be the best thing.

These two have personalities that haven't been seen in Morning Musume before.
Also, with regards to their singing skill, I strongly believe they are members with "many new possibilities hidden within".

This is Morning Musume's 10th anniversary.
As a vocal unit continuing to move forward while going through graduations and auditions, you've all loved them.
I'm really anticipating what the addition of Jun Jun and Lin Lin, as well as any new evolutions will bring, all while facing even more developments.

With that, I ask for your support of Morning Musume, Hello! Project and myself from here out.

I hope from my heart that you all will have a wonderful Spring.

Sincerely,
March, 2007
Tsunku, Morning Musume Producer

:panda_haha:

Seriously made me laugh. Ohh, I certainly hope so, judging by that clip.

junjun so cute >.<

Nyago · « **Reply #53 on:** March 15, 2007, 05:42:36 PM »

So... which generation does that make these girls? 8th generation? 8.5? 9?

I really like Junjun. She seems to have lots of singing potential, even though she crashed and burned in that clip.

Asian domination!

Watch them disappear like Simmin in a few months.

ggliff · « **Reply #58 on:** March 15, 2007, 06:21:38 PM »

WTF

The last thing I thought would happen is non-Japanese girls in MM!!!

Tsunku always manages to shock. Pretty speechless really...very interesting times ahead.

Domination of Asia is underway

edit
does 'exchange members' mean they are in for a fixed period, or for good?
