Whether it is an ad made by yourself, by a fellow fan, or by a company, the happiness of seeing your idol’s picture on a giant billboard, especially when it represents all the hard work done by your idol, simply cannot be expressed in words.

Thanks for you guys love and support my Jack in the box Hope Edition AD,

Hope everyone like and love it,
