A trailer of an upcoming historical fantasy movie starring several SNHG members:

Another one (it's a different one despite the similar YouTube link image):

And the final one:

腾讯视频

^ At the end of the trailer the starring character, an over-600-y.o. rabbit who'd become highly intelligent & acquired her human form along w/ various powers & abilities during the centuries of her life, & led & trained humans to fight against evils in the movie, learns that what she's eating is actually rabbit meat. XD

The PV for the upcoming spring EP of SNH48 looking back at their past, w/ its behind-the-scenes footage at the end, released today:


^ Note that those fans featured in it (except for the fan leaders, who're played by the group members lol ) are their real fans. Its mentioning their old 5th team is also notable, as the team was instrumental in serving as an incubator of their very 1st two sister groups & a number of prominent new-generation SNHG members, who has/will become leaders/aces of the SNHG groups. :)

[EDIT 2]
A former group ace of SNH48 performing her recent song at a major music awards event last night, in which she's got an annual singer award:


SNH48 was awarded the "Most Popular Group" award at the same event, too, & represented by their subgroup 7SENSES to receive the award (the subgroup also performed their recent number at the event). In addition, the current #1-ranked member from their 3rd team has also got an annual artist award at the event. Hence, the SNHG has taken a total of three awards at the event. :)

http://n.miaopai.com/media/oQQdGBdDAi5uv3ycXJL72KNbye22f7kL

The scale of the event will be much bigger this year, as it'll be participated by the teams of SNH48's sister groups too, instead of just the teams of SNH48 last year. :)

^ Note the decorations specially done for them in the auditorium of the theater.

The Korean lyrics are written by a K-pop idol for their fans in S. Korea. :)
