The new generation male singing unit DATE PLAN, which was born from an audition held by popular illustrator Takehana Note and Nippon Columbia, has finally released their major label debut single “Date Plan” today, Wednesday September 4th.
This song is about the heartbreak of a man who longs for his beloved despite being hurt by his unfulfilled wish, and the danceable sound of the electro-swing creates a contrasting charm with the delicate lyrics. In addition, the individuality of Noun and Shirley’s voices is fully demonstrated, making this a song that is truly fitting for the unit’s start.
Toiki, who wrote the lyrics, composed the music, and arranged the song, provided the following comment regarding the release of this song:
“I wrote a song called ‘Date Plan’. After listening to the two of them singing,
After having a conversation, I imagined their relationship and their feelings in my own way and tried to express them in the song.
I hope you can feel the danger that is unique to duet songs, and the depth that only two people can bring out. Thank you to Shirley and Noh Eun for adding color to the song with your wonderful singing voices!
In addition, the music video for “Date Plan,” also produced by Toiki,
It has been decided that the video will premiere on DATE PLAN’s official YouTube channel at 8pm today.
We hope you enjoy the visuals, which make the story depicted in the song even clearer.

Takehana Note (Producer/Artwork Supervisor)
“This is the first time I’ve been involved in the “DATE PLAN” project as a producer. Starting with the audition, there were many first-time experiences throughout this project. I’m really happy to be able to work with such wonderful creative people on a project that is different from the illustrations I do on my own. I want to share this feeling and the work we all created with everyone!”
