The 14th of December marks a large day for DAtv, the charity event 'Message to Asia' will be recorded at the large Tokyo Dome. Ticket sales for the event started on the 27th of November, There is a HUGE star lineup for this event. And each artist has submitted something to be AUCTIONED as part of the hohoemi project (literally the SMILE project).
The line-up is made up of many of great talnt such as; GACKT, Kumuro Tetsuya, Bae Yong Joon, VANESSA, Kim Hyun Joong and many, many more.
Onto the MAIN event: Gackt has put up a MYSTERY item for auction as part of the hohoemi project (smile project). It is to be showcased at the venue.
Gackt in his usual manner has released a touching statement about dreams hopes and SMILES. the statement is listed below;
"The Charity event 'project smile! Message to Asia' to be held on the 14th day 12th month in Tokyo. I GACKT have prepared a special item for charity. It has been an important partner to me, being at my side since my debut in 1999, the year I started my solo career. But to me it is more then that it's like a lover. We would go and watch the night togeather, and we have gone around Hukuoka.
As such you can see it is important to me, But I feel it is more important to present "MY" dream and give to disadvantaged children in Asia, with the thought that though there are children alone that they can smile through it. And so I decided to offer to charity to collect more for them.
Please come see it up close on the day of the exhibition"**
