On January 23rd, 5-member girl group 9nine attended the release event for their new song, �Shoujo Traveler�, at Shibuya�s Maru City. This song talks about a �love adventure� and incorporates the word 'bus stop' in the lyrics. As such, the girls arrived in a red double-decker bus.

Member Yoshii Kanae (18) explained, �This is an adventurous love song that is a little more grown-up than the usual 9nine [tracks],� before launching into three songs with her groupmates.

The audience asked Kawashima Umika (17) about what she feels is an �adventurous love�, and she replied, �I would elope.� She continued to add, �I would like to have a passionate love that would make me rebel against my parents. He might say something like, �It�s bad for your parents� , and then I would actually invite him to elope." Kawashima even described her ideal place to elope to. �One week in Italy,� she mused.

�Shoujo Traveler� is scheduled for release on the 25th of this month.
