Meet 7Senses

Still, there’s some good material out there, like this solo performance.

I’m not 100% sure what’s going on here, but please just watch it. ~~It’s almost 4am please forgive me.~~

She also performed this with Team HII’s Liu Jiongran.
Here she is dancing to CLC’s High Heels. And here is PPAP Tako ver.
Her goal is acting, and she took one of the biggest roles in last year’s drama Campus Beauty. The whole thing is on YouTube and you can find it just by searching the Chinese title (贴身校花), but it’s not subbed so you have to either understand the language or be really committed to seeing the girls lol

I try to post regularly about them (specially Akira since she’s my love) but I’m super lazy and forgetful, so if you really wanna stay up to date you can follow @FY7SENSES on Twitter. And of course, follow the girls on their social media~

If you spot a mistake or anything else, you can send me an ask~

(* didn’t include links to the Heart Ereki, After Rain & New Year’s Bell MVs. After Rain is the theme of their documentary so the MV is not senbatsu-focused. The other two don’t have a real music video.)

See, that’s what the app is perfect for.
