 In mid 2000 , Kumi was asked by Avex to make her promotional debut through a photo shoot with photographer Toku , which led to the shooting of the cover sleeve for " Take Back " . The artwork features her sporting a red and gold outfit , standing outside of a lit @-@ up tunnel . Particularly , Kumi said that " during the shooting of the cover for [ her ] single , ' Take Back ' , no one had told [ her ] what the shoot was for , so [ she ] just stood in front of the camera clueless " .
