The song "Kimi wa Watashi wa Dare na no ka?" will serve as the theme song to the Fuji TV drama "Kagi no Kakatta Heya", which begins airing in September and features Arashi member Ohno Satoshi as a lead. The song is said to express the distress and troubles of having to confront the "other you inside yourself". "Ennui x High Tension", the other B-side of the single, charmed listeners with its sharp electronic sound.

Arashi will also be releasing a new live DVD titled "ARASHI LIVE TOUR Beautiful World" on May 23rd, and have additionally decided to release the song "Your Eyes" (the theme song to the NTV drama 'Mikeneko Holmes no Suiri', starring member Aiba Masaki) as a single on June 6th. With member Sakurai Shou also serving as the newscaster for NTV's broadcast of the London Olympics, Arashi truly seems to be enjoying their status as "top idols".
