History
In early 2007, Morning Musume Tanjō 10nen Kinentai was made. They released a commemorative Single called "Bokura ga Ikiru MY ASIA" (僕らが生きる MY ASIA). Tsunku, the producer of Morning Musume, stated that the members chosen symbolize the grassroots beginning of the group; how they had five members ranging in age from 14-24. Additionally, each member was from an odd generation. On August 8, 2007 they released a second single - which was also their last one - "Itoshiki Tomo e" (愛しき悪友へ). The group was only active during 2007 for Morning Musume's 10th anniversary.

The group had a concert tour starting on August 11, 2007, ending September 1, 2007, located in six different stadiums. The tour was named Morning Musume Tanjō 10nen Kinentai Concert Tour 2007 Natsu: Thank You My Dearest (モーニング娘. 誕生10年記念隊 2007夏 ～サンキュー My Dearest～), and was later released on DVD on November 14, 2007.
