[English]

Hello, everyone It's MINJI

The song that I will be singing for you today

is Stephanie Poetri's "I Love You 3000"

This is my first time singing a cover since Bunnies Camp

I was looking through various songs

and our CEO recommended this one

and it was a song that I was already listening to often

I know that it's already been covered by lots of different people

but I wanted to try putting

my own spin on it, and all of these reasons are why I chose this song

The lyrics are filled with so many cute

and lovely words, right?

They're all the things I want to say to our Bunnies

so, with that in mind, I'll put all my love in and sing it to you!

Please enjoy
