BNK48 version

The Thai idol group BNK48, a sister group of AKB48, covered the song and named it "Yak Cha Dai Phop Thoe" (Шаблон:Lang-th; Шаблон:IPA-th; "Wanted to Meet You").

Production

The single was produced by a team led by Pongchuk Pissathanporn (Шаблон:Lang-th) from La-Ong-Fong band.

The Thai lyrics were written by Natapol Srijomkwan (Шаблон:Lang-th) from Groove Riders band together with Pongchuk Pissathanporn and Tanupop Notayanont (Шаблон:Lang-th) from La-Ong-Fong band.

The cover art of the single, produced by The Uni_form Design Studio, was revealed on 17 July 2017, depicting the sixteen senbatsu members with folded paper representing elements from the songs, as buses from "Ōgoe Diamond" and paper planes from "365 Nichi no Kamihikōki", including elements from the Thai culture, as barb mobiles, and those from the Japanese culture, as paper cranes.

The music video for "Yak Cha Dai Phop Thoe" was directed by Wanweaw Hongvivatana (Шаблон:Lang-th) and Weawwan Hongvivatana (Шаблон:Lang-th), twin directors from GDH 559. The video was notably not marketed as the official music video.

Promotion

The three songs in the single were first performed at the group's debut event on 2 June 2017.

Sixteen members of the group were then selected as senbatsu to promote the single, consisting of Can, Cherprang, Jaa, Jan, Jennis, Kaew, Kaimook, Miori, Music, Namhom, Namneung, Noey, Orn, Pun, Satchan, and Tarwaan. Music serves as the centre for "Aitakatta" and "Ōgoe Diamond", whereas Jennis is the centre for "365 Nichi no Kamihikōki".

A change was made to this set of senbatsu for the event Japan Expo in Thailand 2017, held in Bangkok on 1 and 3 September 2017, after Jan, Kaew, Orn, and Namneung were demoted to undergirls after being found in violation of undisclosed rules (reportedly truancy), and were replaced by Jane, Mobile, Pupe, and Rina Izuta.

To support the single, the group held its first handshake event in Bangkok on 27 August 2017, attracting almost 4,000 fans.

The music video for the song "Yak Cha Dai Phop Thoe" was released on 29 November 2017 after announcing that the song would be used for the soundtrack of the television series, Project S the Series ("Shoot! I Love You" Part).

Release and sales

The single was officially released on 8 August 2017. Physical CDs were available for purchase from 7 to 19 July 2017 only, during which it sold a total of 13,500 copies.
