Members (Left to Right): Shizuka - Aya - Ami
Formed in 2000, Dream was a vocal girl group from LDH. The group made various changes to it's lineup since the formation, and in 2009 the group rebooted itself, transferring from Avex to EXILE HIRO's company LDH. Since their re-debut they have been a part of the Supergroup E-girls up until the re-branding of E-girls to E.G Family, leading to their disbandment.
Rather than continue as members of the unit E-Girls, the members decided to do their own separate ways within the company. Shizuka will dedicate herself as a member of DANCE EARTH PARTY alongside EXILE ÜSA and EXILE TETSUYA, Aya will graduate from singing/performer career to dedicate herself as a staff and support for E.G.family artist's activities and as photographer and graphic designer for the other artists and Ami will dedicate herself on her solo career as Dream Ami.

there's an e-girls thread here too??!! cool!!!! I hope this thread will be updated from time to time. I really love Flower and Happiness and I can't wait for the e-girls song!! yay e-girls!!
I don't know much about EXPG myself and there isn't a lot of information in english.The school has eight branches in : Tokyo, Miyazaki, Sapporo, Osaka, Matsuyama, Fukuoka, Okinawa and Taipei(taiwan).
All of the kids in the poster were in 24Karats~ Stay Gold but I'm not so sure about Kyoka(not to be mistaken with the Flower member) because I don't know whether she's a student of EXPG prior to VBA3(the audition for Flower) or not. BTW, not ALL(but most) of the E-Girls were students of EXPG but they do get their vocal and dance practice there since their debut.
The fashion show took place before the performance. The dance start at around 1:55 And if you watch most of Exile's recent concert, you will notice the EXPG crew being the back dancers or putting on a some sort of opening show. I want to put more videos of their performance but there's that media files limit or something. Hope this helps a bit.
No one use the DREAM thread anymore. Yeah, The song nt so upbeat as the title sounds. But the dance looks good. It will probably look even bettr in the PV.
You can see the dance intro in this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyb0N_LXquM
@MIZUKIngdom : I think I mentioned (under a spoiler tag at Fuku-chan's thread I think) that this thread isn't really active. There aren't a lot of E-Girls fans her. A lot of H!O users prefer cutesy whiny idols
I uploaded the full video in the best quality I can find(which isn't HD ). And the audio is not in sync with the video. I'll upload a better one whenever I can.
But the download was lovely! They girls are looking so good in the PV @__@ Mind if I share that link in the downloads area over at 9-flower michi?
Also, I'm not going to say exactly what yet, but.....something really super awesome might be happening over at 9-flower in a few days. Something really good for people who can't afford the upcoming Celebration! single, but still want to get their hands on a copy.
Vodka might be feeling generous this holiday season, so keep an eye out for it.
