Chinen's butt as appeal for "Cho Kosoku! Sankin Kotai"

June 11, Hey! Say! JUMP's Chinen Yuri attanded the preview evet for the movie "Cho Kosoku! Sankin Kotai", abbreviated as "Cho-sankin".

The samurai comedy movie tells the story of a daimyou (feudal warrior) from the Yunagaya Domain, Naito Masaatsu (Sasaki Kuronosuke), who was ordered to do sankin-kotai within 5 days. Sankin-kotai is is a practice back in Edo period wherein the daimyou is expected to visit the Shogun and they must live in the capital for several months. However, it usually takes about 8 days to reach Edo from Yunagawa. So with little money and resources, Naito and his clan embark on a difficult journey to reach Edo in 5 days.

In this movie Chinen plays the role of Suzuki Yoshinosuke, a kyudo master (archer), who is afraid of height. His instructor praised him for having good arms. Chinen said, "If I don't succeed in Johnn's, I might do archery." Because in the movie Chinen wore a loincloth, they appealed by saying "Because it is rare that an idol shows his butt, the shooting was interesting. Please tell a lot of people, that Chinen butt is nice!"

"Cho Kosoku! Sankin Kotai" will be released in theaters on June 21.
