■The theme song has been decided to be BE:FIRST’s newly written song “Dana Yori Yori”!
The release date of the movie “Done Yori Motsubuku Hugashite”, starring Ryōki Miyama, who is also active as RYOKI of BE:FIRST, and Shiori Kubo of Nogizaka46, has been set for February 7, 2025. The visual, theme song, and additional cast have been released.
This visual captures Mizushima Yoshiki (Miyama Ryōki) and Kirimoto Tsukina (Kubo Shiori) standing back to back, with the Kamakura beach where they live together in the background, as they pass each other. The waves swaying behind the two seem to express a shaky and unstable feeling. The profile of the two looking in different directions with fragile expressions is a visual that exudes the sadness of not being able to touch each other even though they are in love with each other.
In addition, the theme song for this work has been decided to be BE:FIRST’s newly written song “Dana Yori Yori”. This is the first BE:FIRST song to have a Japanese title, and the ballad song sung in straightforward words will enhance the lingering feeling of watching the song. The lyrics were written by RYOKI and producer SKY-HI. Miyama, who played the lead role and also wrote the lyrics for the theme song, said, “I thought there might be a lyric that I could write that would delve deeper into the character of Ryojo, who I played both as an artist and as an actor, so I decided to write it myself.” “Itadakimasu,” he says, saying that he was able to create this song because he played Ryojo.
At the same time, additional cast members have also been released. She played the role of Chiharu Murayama, who suffers from the same obsessive-compulsive disorder as Ryojo and shakes up the relationship between Ryojo and Tsukina. Moeka Hoshi makes a strong presence in works such as “At the Window” (2021) and “At the Window” (2022). The role of Sachiko Kiuchi, Tsukina’s best friend, will be played in the TV Tokyo drama “My Town Chiba-kun.” ” is currently airing, and Rin Nagata continues to appear in popular projects, such as the movie “LEONIDAS” scheduled to be released in the spring of 2025.

■BE:FIRST RYOKI Comment
I am very grateful that I was able to announce the theme song “Dan Yori Yori” for “Dan Yori Motsubuku Hajimete”.
I thought there might be a lyric that I could write that would delve deeper into the character of Ryojo, the character I played both as an artist and as an actor, so I decided to write it myself.
Because I was able to be more involved in the work both as an artist and as an actor, I believe that the viewers will be able to empathize with the work and feel it more deeply.
I hope people will pay attention to the link between the movie and the theme song.
Once again, I am happy to have been able to be involved in this “Hold Me Stronger than Anyone” and the theme song “Nobody Yori”. Please enjoy the movie and the music!
