'Fu-Fu' was founded in February 2008. As pop idols in Japan, they started out with street performances but soon repositioned themselves to give live performances on stage. In 2009, they took a new direction and came up with the theme of 'chorus with dance performance'. They perform anime songs with lively dancing and harmonizing.

'Fu-Fu's performance will be followed by a discussion session with their producers on the formation of idol groups in Japan. The group will also share how being idols has impacted their lives.
