Green leaves filled the screen as music started playing in the background. The first episode of a new season of Global We Got Married is welcomed.

Captions come onto the screen. 'Who will the new couples be?'

"Aoi!" A voice booms as the leaves blur and the camera instead focuses on the tall building behind it.

Aoi? Could that be one of the new couple's names?

"Coming!" A voice responds in Japanese. The camera cuts to the inside of the building, into one of the rooms. There is a blurred figure next to the elevator, a bag in her hand as her head is tilted upwards towards an unseen place. The room is spacious and clean, with large curtains draped around equally large windows and white marble walls touching the black tiles.

"You've been saying coming for ten minutes already!" The blurred figure responds with a sarcastic tone to her voice. Korean characters show up at the bottom of the screen as it translates what the two were saying.

The blurred figure continues talking. "The stairs take twenty seconds to get down, I'm not sure why you're still 'coming.'"

Another voice from off camera replies with a 'shut up.'

A few sounds can be heard and then another figure rushes into the screen. There's no need to blur her as her face never met the camera. "Finally," the blurred figure muttered before pressing the elevator button.

The camera switches to another one installed inside of the elevator. Both girls step inside and they're both unblurred. One's back is to the camera as they talk to the other one.

She turns around and the camera stops as they focus on her face. A bunch of question marks fill the screen.

Is this who I think it is???

And then the character's that make up her name come up in bright bolded blue.

AKAMINE RISA

The screen turns black for the slightest second before cutting to her in the legendary black interview room. She bows while sitting and smiles while introducing herself first in korean, and then in her native language of japanese.

"Um, hiiii." She laughs awkwardly before continuing. "I'm Akamine Risa, for those of you who don't know. I'm mainly a model, but I'm starting to act as well." Some photos of her posing in several outfits, and then of her acting in a drama pop up around her.

"I don't really know why I joined this show... I've never been in a relationship before so I guess this was to try it out, I guess..." Risa laughs and the camera cuts back to Risa, except now she's in a van with the other girl, who can safely be assumed as her manager.

The japanese version of Blood Sweat and Tears is playing in the background as Risa's manager starts to dance in her seat while Risa just rolls her eyes.

"Who do you think my husband will be?" She asks. Her manager shrugs, leaning back in her seat. "I have no idea." The video fast forwards to the van slowing to a stop and both filing out. The manager scurries off camera so only Risa is on screen. After all, managers aren't supposed to get screen time in the first place.

Risa enters the building, which seems to be a hotel of some sort and is led to a restaurant on the ground floor. Just by the interior, one can assume that it was expensive. Risa's led by one of the hostesses to a long table that held a variety of different masks.

A red envelope is at the beginning of the table and Risa picks it up, carefully sliding the paper out of the envelope. 

She reads the content aloud as a picture of the card fills half of the screen. Once she finishes reading, she sets the card down and walks down the long table, looking at the assortment of masks.
