After SMBS joined the WorldVision Song Contest, JWHF and WHF were given interest by SMBS. As the JWHF was being revived after the postponing of the contest after JWHF9, SMBS wanted to participate for the first time and entered a song. As for WHF, SMBS said they want to allocate money that could be spent on this contest to domestic events, and participate in JWHF when it takes place, with a planned host bid for JWHF12.
