Quick Japan Vol. 177: Includes two mini-cards (4 types in total) featuring OWV's Kosuke Honda and OCTPATH's Naoki Furuse

OWV and OCTPATH are boy bands affiliated with Yoshimoto Kogyo that share the commonality of being formed by former trainees from the audition program "PRODUCE 101 JAPAN" series.

Furthermore, Kosuke Honda (OWV) and Naoki Furuse (OCTPATH) share many commonalities, including being the leaders of their respective groups, having dance as one of their greatest strengths, and having red as their member color. In "Quick Japan" vol. 170 (released in February 2024), the two leaders sat down for an interview, which eventually led to them taking turns choreographing for each other's groups.

In "Quick Japan" vol. 177 (cover: Ponpokko and Peanuts-kun), Honda and Furuse will be featured in an interview together for the first time in about a year. To commemorate this, the "QJ Store" will offer a special package that includes "Quick Japan" vol. 177 and a set of two mini cards featuring newly taken solo photos of the two (two types each for Kosuke Honda and Naoki Furuse, randomly selected from a total of four types).

"Quick Japan" vol. 177 is also scheduled to feature an interview with content different from the article on "QJWeb Quick Japan Web," as well as "Kosuke Honda talks about the artist Naoki Furuse" and "Naoki Furuse talks about the artist Kosuke Honda."
