For the promotion of their recently released 3rd Major Single "R.P.G.~Rockin'Playing Game", SuG ventured into the streets of Shibuya and Harajuku for the "3x9 Shibuya - Harajuku Balloon Game". In three places, balloons in nine colors were distributed and for those fans, who were able to gather all the balloons and reach a certain place were able to receive a special present from the band members. SuG certainly made the streets their special stage with this "game" campaign. The only place that had been revealed at first, was Harajuku ASTRO HALL, where the distribution began and the place was quickly swarming with people.
Among them were also the SuG members, handing Balloons to their fans with a surprise appearance in front of them. For the time being, the streets of Harajuku were in utter chaos. The original plan had been to cross Takeshita Dori completely, yet with more than 500 fans surrounding the band, the potential risk had been too high and the plan had to be canceled in between.
That day, the 3000 balloons were distributed within only an hour of the campaign and more than 1000 fans could be seen in the streets of Harajuku and Shibuya with balloons in their hands.
SuG's vocalist Takeru commented happily about the event: "I was surprised that so many more people than expected came to the event. It was like a completely different place from the Takeshita Dori I am usually walking through. I am happy that, as it suits the band SuG, I was able to take part in a campaign which 'Is fun for the heart' like this."
