Kumi Koda is celebrating her 25th anniversary since her debut this month.
Kumi Koda will hold her first national dinner show “KODAKUMI 25th Anniversary Love & Songs”, starting with the Hokkaido performance on December 1st, and will continue on to Hokkaido, Fukuoka, Hiroshima, Osaka, Nagoya, and the Tokyo performance held today. The finale was reached.
The 560 people who gathered for this performance, which sold out as soon as it was released, watched all at once.
Gradually, she was spotted, and when she appeared in a long dress with a crimson rose motif, the venue was filled with cheers from the fans, and the dinner show began.
Starting with “Ai no Kotoba,” which is one of the most popular ballads, she sang “Hello Yesterday,” which was also used as the theme song for a drama, and her signature song “Ai no Uta.”
The MC said, “Good evening, everyone! I’m Kumi Koda! We’ve completed our 24th year, and we’re celebrating our 25th anniversary this month. This is our first dinner show in our lives.” Her typical greeting made the venue erupt into excitement.
The dinner show continued from Sapporo, followed by the Tokyo performance in Fukuoka, Hiroshima, and Nagoya. He expressed his joy at being able to hold a dinner show alongside so many famous singers who are performing at the same time, and expressed his gratitude for the large number of people who came to his first dinner show.
Then, as the dinner show approached its midway point, the bright band sound of the classic Christmas song “Winter Bell” began to play, and the long dresses quickly changed to miniskirts, making the venue even more lively.
In addition, the new song “This weekend”, which is a highlight of this dinner show, was also performed for the first time at the Tokyo performance.
This song was written as a tie-up for a commercial for the jewelry brand “Gem Kelly”, which she is appearing in for the first time in 17 years.
Their beautiful singing voice and performance, which mixed R&B rhythm with mellow Japanese rap, enveloped the floor in a gentle atmosphere.
When singing the song “Moon and Sun,” he got off the stage and went to a lucky audience member.
This is a surprise performance that can only be seen at a dinner show, with Koda singing right in front of you with a rose in her hand.
And at the end, she appeared sexy in a purple bunny girl costume to the song “Shhh!”.
The venue suddenly reached its peak of excitement and transformed into a live performance venue.
He stepped up his gear and sang his hit cover songs “Cutie Honey,” “BE MY BABY,” and “Megumi no Hito” as if he were about to fold them.
Parading through the large audience enjoying the dinner show, they interacted with each other with a sense of distance that cannot be experienced at a normal live show, and the venue was immediately livened up, closing the show with a spectacular performance.
The set list for the dinner show is available on each subscription, so be sure to check it out.
