Actor Jun Shison and Nagase Ren of the popular group "King & Prince" attended the production announcement press conference for "24 Hour TV 48 - Love Saves the Earth" (Nippon TV Network) held in Tokyo on July 1st.

The theme of this year's 24-hour TV is "Tell me about yourself." The hosts will be Ueda Shinya, Hatori Shinichi, and announcer Miura Asami. Charity partners will be King & Prince, Shison, Nagashima Kazushige, Hamabe Minami, Hikawa Kiyoshi, and Yasuko. The show will air from 6:30pm on August 30th to 8:54pm on the 31st.

When asked about their impressions of each other, Shison said, "I've worked with Hamabe-san on projects and Asadora for over 10 years, so I'm really looking forward to it." He went on to reveal, "I've known Nagase Ren for 10 years. We've been friends since before he became King & Prince, and we even watched the Red and White Song Battle together on New Year's Eve."

Nagase smiled and said, "I've known Jun for many years, and he comes to dinner and to my concerts. It's reassuring to have Jun with us (on 24-Hour TV), just like (Takahashi) Kaito."
