[ENG] A Guide to BE:FIRST | Part 1: Origin

In honour of it being a year since the THE FIRST started airing, a look into the audition that formed BE:FIRST’s origin, their relationship with SKY-HI and their journey until now.

(one day late but oh well)

＊dates are in dd.mm.yy format

Part 2 Member Introductions coming soon (hopefully, maybe)

Notes
I have no video editing skills or experience, nor am I fluent in Japanese, but I tried lol
Let me know if there’s any mistakes or incorrect information
This was meant to be just a member introduction video but it got way out of control so it was split in two (and then the actual member introduction part got even more out of control)
Btw if anyone is actually reading this, let me know your opinion on a super long introduction video with all the members (1 hour) vs shorter videos split by member (8-10 min each)
Since BE:FIRST still has a comparatively small international fanbase (compared to Japanese) and this video is all in English, don’t know if anyone is even going to watch this super long video… but figured I might as well put it up after I spent way too much time on it. I’d be glad if it helps even one person!
Not entirely sure how it works, but if anyone wants to add Japanese subtitles (or send me the file to add?), go ahead!
There’s so much content for Japanese BESTYs and so little of it is available to international fans, and even if it is, there’s then the language barrier
So I tried to include heaps of stuff that international fans may not be able to access usually but that also probably means huge copyright risk, hopefully this doesn’t get struck from the internet
Purely made with love so that international fans can also learn about BE:FIRST, no copyright infringement intended - I did try to keep the clips shorts + the volume low (have no experience in dealing with copyright, if anyone has any tips, feel free to share)
