■MISIA collaborates with special guests for one night only!
The opening song will be MISIA’s solo performance of “White Christmas.” After quietly announcing the start of the performance with a soft singing voice, they continued to sing the immortal hit number “Everything”, and towards the end, they enthusiastically sang “Yubikiri Genman (SEIKO ver.)”.

■MISIA & EXIT will have a Christmas talk with guests Wang Lin and Ryosuke Yamada!
Talk guests are Wang Lin and Ryosuke Yamada. MISIA and Yamada started going to each other’s live shows after MISIA performed the theme song for a movie starring Yamada. MISIA said, “I went to see the show with a girl who was about 3 years old, and (Yamada) called me to the backstage area. She was so kind to me, so I said, “Do you want to hold me?” “But…” What is the unfortunate episode in which Yamada laments, “This is the first time I’ve ever been rejected like that in my life”?
Surprisingly, this is the first time Wang Lin and MISIA have met. “I’m so excited!” Wang Lin, who appeared in a cute Santa costume, said, “When I was little, when MISIA would sing on TV, people would always say, “Here, just copy it and sing.” “I’ve been singing ever since I could remember, and that’s what made me fall in love with singing,” he says, unable to stop his heart pounding in front of his idol, MISIA.
We welcomed these two guests and talked about our childhood Christmas memories.
Yamada, who has three siblings, said, “When the siblings all wrote letters to Santa, the next morning, the replies were all written in English along with the presents.They also left a cookie for the reindeer. Every time I left it there, someone would take a bite out of me,” he says, reminiscing about his happy childhood memories. Now that he’s grown up, he says, “For the past 10 years, I’ve been exchanging gifts with all the members,” but sometimes there are presents that make you want to shake your head. What is the member’s mysterious gift that bothers Yamada?
Furthermore, when Yamada was asked about his ideal Christmas date, he revealed the date plan he most wanted to do right now, and everyone said, “That’s too bold!” in surprise!
Wang Lin, who is from Aomori, said, “Aomori is completely white during Christmas (with snow), so the illuminations reflect on the snow and sparkle.It’s really quiet at night as well.But thanks to the snow, the moonlight reflects and the city looks beautiful.” It’s a bit bright,” he says, introducing the fantastic scenery that can only be found in a snowy country. Yamada, who loves illuminations, took a bite out of it with great interest, and everyone burst into laughter!?
■What surprised Yamada when he visited New Zealand for work?
Next, we will look back on each of them in 2024. Rintaro is going to become a father this year. “Now that I’ve become a father, I go to bed early and wake up early every day.” He seems to be able to wake up naturally in the morning, and he laughs by saying, “I got to work earlier than the executive committee because of work at the school festival.”
This year, Yamada encountered an unexpected incident while visiting New Zealand for the first time on business. “When I was shooting at a winery deep in the mountains in Christchurch, a place with an extremely rich natural environment, I felt the presence of someone behind me…” When Yamada turned around, he saw an unexpected sight in front of him! What happened that left the entire studio stunned, wondering, “Really!? Is that really the case!?”
This summer, MISIA announced the Nippon TV 2024 athlete support song “Fleur de la Pasion”. “I went to Paris to record an orchestra.The Olympics were being held in Paris at the same time.It was the first time in about 20 years that I was able to take it easy.”However, when Yamada and his friends heard about the hectic schedule, they said, “It’s going to be slow.” “What kind of worldview do you live in!?”, I was amazed at MISIA’s vitality.
This year is Wang Lin’s first attempt at a musical. He broke new ground when he appeared in the masterpiece “The Producers,” which won the top prize in 12 Tony Awards. “There are a lot of fans of the work “The Producers” itself, so I thought it was a new challenge for me.” What is Wang Lin’s next grand goal…?
In addition, Yamada and MISIA revealed the routines they secretly do during their live shows, and the talk was very exciting. And finally, the annual gift exchange. Each of the five people brought a gift of their own choice, and a draw was drawn to decide who would receive which gift. In 2023, a tragedy occurred where a guest won his own gift…but will 2024 also have an eventful result!?
In addition, in the “Special Edition” distributed on Hulu, MISIA will perform “Fleur de la Pasion” and “Candle of Life.” Also included are MISIA & Michiko Shimizu’s “Hitotsu Dake” and Little Glee Monster’s “The World is Laughing at You -winter ver.-”. This is also worth checking out.
