Yuzu to release "Fusen Kaishuu", theme song for drama "Minami-kun ga Koibito !?" starring Ai Iinuma and Yusei Yagi (FANTASTICS)

■The plot twist will be aired on FM802’s “ROCK KIDS 802-OCHIKEN Goes ON!!-” on July 16th!

Yuzu has announced that they will be releasing their new song “Fusen Collective”, the theme song for the TV Asahi drama “Minami-kun ga Koibito!?” starring Iinuma Ai and Hachiki Yusei (FANTASTICS), digitally on July 17th, ahead of the release of their album “Zukan” (to be released on July 31st).

In addition, it was announced that “Foreshadowing Collection” will be aired early on “ROCK KIDS 802-OCHIKEN Goes ON!!-” (FM802), which will be broadcast on July 16th.

The new song “Fusen Tokushu” was written and composed by Yuujin Kitagawa, and arranged by bassist Yu Sudo, who is also a member of the rock band XIIX. The song features a light guitar sound and catchy melody, and if Yuzu’s representative song “Natsuiro” can be described as a “Heisei summer song,” then “Fusen Tokushu” should be called a “Reiwa summer tune.”

Kitagawa was originally offered the theme song based on a fragment of a song he had written during the production period, and began working on it in earnest. After reading through the contents and script of the drama, he completed the entire song, including writing new lyrics, and provided it to us.

Yuzu’s 18th original album “Zukan”, which includes “Fusen Kaishu”, contains a total of 11 songs, including “SUBWAY” and “Frontier”, which were released digitally in 2023, “Beautiful”, which became a hot topic as the Nippon Life Insurance CM song in 2023, “Jujisei”, the theme song for the ice show “Hyoen 2024 -Jujisei no Kiseki-” starring Daisuke Takahashi, “Chururi”, the Nissan “Sakura” CM song that became a hot topic when co-starring with Takako Matsu, and the album title song “Zukan”, which was appointed as the new Nippon Life Insurance CM song. While covering Yuzu’s musical history to date, it is a work worthy of the album title “Zukan”, which “records” genre-less sound making and universal messages that are timeless.
