At a press conference on the day, Lima expressed her feelings that she was "so happy" to be competing in the Red and White Family Games and that she wanted to "make a lot of memories." 

Mako said, "I will try to share maya (who did not attend the press conference due to poor body condition) Miihi (who is resting due to poor condition)" and "I am very nervous, but I will work hard." 

JYP said on Thursday that NiziU was named to the cast of the 71st Hong-White Competition, which airs on NHK on The 31st of next month.

NiziU is a girl group created by JYP Entertainment and Japan's Sony Music through the Nizi Project, a large-sized global audition held last year. A total of nine Japanese members were made up of Mako, Riku, Lima, Rio, Maya, Miihi, Mayuka, Ayaka, and Nina.

NiziU will debut with his first single Step and a Step on February 2, and will enter the Red and White League 29 days after his debut. It broke the record for Japanese group WaT, which appeared on the program in 2005, just one month and 29 days after its debut in 15 years.

Despite making his full debut in December, NiziU appeared in the Red and White Family Festival when his free debut song Make You Happy, released in June, became a big hit in Japan.
