■Kochinoken will be performing “Hai Yorokonde” with 50 juniors from his alma mater, Komazawa University A Cappella Circle, in a special version only available at “Numahama”!
Kocchi no Kento and Liella! will appear on E-Tele’s “Numa ni Hamatite Kikitemita”, which will be broadcast on December 21st.
This is a variety show that covers the world (=swamp) where teenagers are completely addicted, and approaches the real face and philosophy of teenagers (= addicted people) who are trying to master what they love.
Kocchi no Ken, who will be participating in the 75th NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen for the first time, is known for his song “Hai Yorokon,” which has been viewed over 14 billion times on social media and is popular for its lyrics incorporating Morse code and “last-minute dance.” “De” has become a big buzz. He is also attracting attention as the younger brother of actor Masaki Suda, and we will take a closer look at the charm of his rapidly rising popularity.
Liella! is an all-media project “Love Live! A school idol group born from the series. The fourth work in the series “Love Live! The voice actors who play the 11 high school girls who appear in the drama “Superstar!!” have actually formed a group and are developing idol activities, gaining support from teenagers.
According to a survey on the program’s website, the biggest appeal of Kocchi no Ken that teenagers are addicted to is its “human nature.” The lyrics and dance reflect the twists and turns that Kento has gone through in his life, and the songs that “gently snuggle up” resonate with the younger generation, especially teenagers. The program covers high school girls who got hooked on Kocchi no Kento and started writing songs, and elementary school students who play drums, tap dance, and work hard at creating illustrations. In addition, we will provide you with a behind-the-scenes look at her appearance on the singing program “The 24th Osaka Melody of My Heart” and her first collaboration with her younger brother, actor Shinki Sugao.
On the other hand, a teenager who is addicted to Liella! says that their biggest appeal is their “live performance.” We will explore the secrets of performances that synchronize with anime and high-level singing and dancing. We interviewed Liella!, a high school student who admires Liella! and aims to become an idol, a high school student who enjoys playing the violin by ear, and a mother and daughter who are addicted to their activities. Furthermore, in the “Self-introductions by the members”, the true faces of the cast, which you don’t usually get to see, are revealed.
In the studio, Liella! performed “Let’s be ONE” and Kocchi no Kento performed “Hai Yorokonde” with 50 juniors from the a cappella circle of Komazawa University, their alma mater, in a special version exclusive to “Numahama”. Be sure to pay attention to the performance that can only be seen here.
