Raul expressed that walking the runway in Paris was a nerve-wracking but exciting experience, as he was inspired by the unique and creative clothes he wore. He was also in awe of the city of Paris, calling it picturesque and full of fun.
Snow Man, the 9-member song and dance group, made their debut in January 2020 and has since become the top JPop group. They are the first group of the Reiwa era to have two consecutive albums with over a million physical sales.
