The popular junior group ACEes have been appointed as the brand mascots for Fujiya's Smile Switch, and attended a press conference held in Tokyo on February 2nd. Ukisho Hikaru said, "It's a great honor to be appointed as the brand mascots for Fujiya, a company that has been loved for over 100 years," and added, "I was really happy, but at the same time, I was really surprised." He also said, "I hope everyone will take a look at our faces, which are just as sweet as Fujiya's, and enjoy the sweetness."
Nasu Yuto said, "Fujiya has been taking care of me one-sidedly since I was a child. This is our second year since we formed and this year is a really crucial year for us, so I am truly grateful to have been given the opportunity to work with them at this time." He smiled and said, "It was unrequited love (with Fujiya), but starting this year it has finally become reciprocal."
The group will appear in the company's new commercial, which will begin airing on the 7th. Ukisho enthusiastically stated, "We will do our best to spread the word about Fujiya and bring smiles to many people's faces."
