■”‘Goodbye, See You Someday!’ is also a song that makes me think about the past 100 years. I hope that the next 100 years will be a world where no one living in that world will be left behind.” (Kenshi Yonezu)
It has been decided that Kenshi Yonezu will appear as a special project on the 75th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen, which will be broadcast on December 31st.
Kenshi Yonezu will be in charge of the theme song “Sayonara Mataitsuka!” for the first half of 2024’s serial TV novel “Tiger ni Tsubasa.” With its clever lyrics and light melody, it linked to the worldview of the drama and became a hot topic of conversation.
This is Kenshi Yonezu’s first appearance at Kohaku in 6 years since his first appearance at the 69th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen in 2018. Please pay attention to what kind of stage it will be and what kind of precious moment it will be.
■Kenshi Yonezu comment
A wonderful drama like “Tiger ni Tsubasa” is worthy of the celebratory occasion of the Kohaku Uta Gassen, and I hope that by appearing in the drama I will be able to help with that, so I will be participating in the Kohaku Uta Gassen. As luck would have it. In addition, it seems that NHK will be celebrating 100 years since the start of broadcasting next year, and although it is just a strange coincidence, “Goodbye, See You Again!” is also a song that makes you think about the past 100 years. I am honored to be able to be a part of this event, even if it is just for a moment, as it celebrates its 100th anniversary. I hope that over the next 100 years, we will live in a world where no one will be left behind.
