④On the day of the individual WithLIVE talk session

Tap the LIVE reservation screen → tap "Enter" displayed on the ticket and wait.

*You can enter the event room and wait there from 5 minutes before the event start time. Please make sure you arrive with plenty of time.

*Please note that the countdown displayed in the upper right corner of the screen does not show the time until the individual talk session starts, but the total time until the individual talk session ends.

Example: If you have a 30-second talk and you enter the room 5 minutes before, it will say 5 minutes 30 seconds and the talk will start when there are 30 seconds left.

*Please hold your device screen vertically to adjust the viewing angle.

Please turn on the camera when using.

*If you are not waiting when the time comes to join and you are connected to a member, we will assume that you do not intend to participate and will cancel your reservation. We will not reschedule for any reason.

*Combined entries will not be accepted. If you have won multiple times, please participate in individual WithLIVE talk sessions for each winning slot, and wait in the room in time for the next participation time.

*The test mode, which allows you to check the signal strength and image quality, is displayed in the upper right corner.

Please note that if you wait in test mode, you will not be connected to the individual talk session. Please be sure to tap "Enter" displayed on the ticket to re-enter the room and wait (see image below).

*Winners will be provided with a serial code for participating in the event on their UNIVERSAL MUSIC STORE My Page.

*Please enter the room and wait before the start of the individual WithLIVE talk session. (You can enter the room 5 minutes before the participation time)

*The transfer and resale of tickets is strictly prohibited. In addition, fraudulent acts such as counterfeiting and duplication are crimes. If discovered, you may be denied participation in the next event. The organizers are not responsible for theft, trouble, ticket fraud, or other accidents between customers.

*If you do not arrive by the [start time] of your participation time, you will not be able to participate in the event, regardless of the reason. Please make sure to arrive with plenty of time.

*Minors must obtain parental consent before applying and participating. If a minor applies and participates, it will be assumed that parental consent has been obtained. If you are unable to obtain parental consent, please refrain from participating in the event.

*Due to the current situation, wearing a mask is OK.

However, since the event will be an online talk, if we can see your mouth, it will be easier to convey what you are saying and the other members will be able to talk with confidence, so please make sure we can see your facial expressions.

*We do not recommend asking questions on sticky notes or memos, as they are difficult to see on the screen and can result in lost time. You can bring in cheering goods, but digital devices are not allowed. Please be careful not to show any personal information. (Note that your image in the top right corner of the chat screen will appear inverted, but the screen the members see is not inverted.)

*Due to unavoidable troubles or the artist's circumstances, the event may be canceled, members may be changed, or there may be absences. In addition, the schedule and content of the event may be changed due to circumstances. In such cases, no refunds or refunds will be given. The conditions will not change even if the event is canceled or ended midway. Please be aware of this in advance.

*Please participate in the event in a location with good reception. Customers are responsible for communication costs associated with participating in the event.

*We will not respond to communication issues due to customer reasons, such as inability to access the event or loss of conversation due to poor communication during the event.

*The conversation will end when the time is up, even if it is in the middle of the conversation. If the content of the conversation is inappropriate, you may be asked to leave at the discretion of the staff.

*In order to prevent any problems at the event, the event organizers will record and film conversations.

*Please note that various restrictions may be imposed at the event to prevent accidents and confusion on the day.

<※>

*Please note that in individual WithLIVE talk sessions, if the organizer determines that any of the following situations have been confirmed, the talk will be terminated even if it is in the middle of the talk. In the event of a forced termination, the winner's right to the special gift will be immediately forfeited and will not be re-granted, so please be careful.

- If a third party other than the winner (including preschool children) is photographed.

・Customers' actions such as recording, audio recording, screenshots, etc. (This also includes cases where sounds that appear to be audio recordings are confirmed). Please note that the same will apply if any equipment capable of recording or taking pictures or suspicious objects are captured on camera, even if it is not in use (even if the purpose is not to record or take pictures, any suspicious objects will be deemed to be taken by the management). *If you have any concerns, please contact us in advance.

- If you are recognized as being driving or riding a train or other public transportation.

- If the photo contains excessive body exposure or anything that violates public order and morals.

- When the winner list is compared with the participant list and participant screen, and it is determined that the same person has clearly participated in more than the number of wins.

*Please note that during the talk session, there may be noise from the venue, and conversations of staff and other members may be heard or recorded in the footage.

*Please rest assured that your voice will not be heard by other customers.

*It is strictly prohibited to copy, transfer, lend, upload to the internet or SNS, or distribute in any other way the recordings (including data) of the talk session.
