The global boy group “NEXZ” was born from the Japan-Korea joint audition project “Nizi Project Season 2” by JYP and Sony Music.
“Miracle” written and composed by JY Park, which was performed at the final stage of the audition on December 18th last year, will be distributed as a pre-release song, and it will be ranked in the Oricon Daily Digital Single (single song) ranking as of December 18th, as well as on iTunes, LINE, etc. It reached number 1 on music distribution sites such as MUSIC, AWA, mu-mo, and Rakuten Music, and even reached number 1 in the “K-POP” genre on iTunes with “Miracle (Korean Ver.),” which was distributed at the same time as both Japanese and Korean songs. Achieved the feat of 1st place.
Additionally, the “Miracle” Performance Video, which was released at the same time as the song distribution, has been viewed over 10 million times on YouTube in just 6 days, and has already exceeded 17 million views.
Moreover, it is still fresh in my memory that even before their debut, they announced a large-scale project with the daily hydration drink “Aquarius”, surprising the public with a topic that is not typical of a new artist.
Since April, the independent reality program “Debut Preparation Class
And on May 1st, NEXZ’s “global debut”, which the world had been eagerly awaiting, was finally revealed.
They have released a new commercial for Aquarius featuring NEXZ, “Beside those who advance.” It was announced in advance that the “Stage” version would be aired nationwide from May 13th (Monday), and attention was focused on the commercial that was released on the web as soon as possible.
At the stadium, where a large number of spectators cheered, the sight of all NEXZ members enlivening the venue with their sharp performances drew many fans who were excited about NEXZ’s future.
Among them, the new song “Keep on Moving” written and produced by JY Park, which was used as the commercial song, received a great response, with comments on social media saying, “It’s a divine song,” “It’s heartwarming,” “It’s refreshing and perfect for Aquarius,” “I burst into tears,” and “The video also goes well with it.” It was filled with loving posts such as “Goosebumps” and “I love you!!!”.
Meanwhile, today, May 13th (Monday), “Aquarius” new commercial “Beside those who advance.” In conjunction with the start of the nationwide broadcast of the “Stage” edition, the recording video of the CM song “Keep on Moving”, which is currently a hot topic, has been released.
This content, which is NEXZ | AQUARIUS #3 of the YouTube channel “Masukuri Hito Channel” that supports people who move toward the people they want to become, also includes interviews with each member talking about their thoughts on the new song “Keep on Moving.”
The content makes the music even more appealing.
Also, the recording is interesting, as it shows each member thinking hard about how to pour their thoughts into the song as NEXZ, and facing the microphone with freshness and resoluteness.
Be sure to enjoy #3, which is full of highlights, starting with leader TOMOYA’s breath, the members singing while riding the vibe and swaying their bodies, and NEXZ chatting after recording.
There is only one week left until NEXZ’s “global debut”.
Just as the message “Keep on Moving” conveys, they will continue to move forward and only look forward.

[What is “Nizi Project”]
A Japan-Korea joint audition project by JYP and Sony Music.
In this project, JYP and Sony Music will jointly handle everything from holding global auditions to member casting, training, planning, production, and management.
In “Nizi Project Season 1”, she participated in “NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen” for 4 consecutive years, won the “Japan Record Award” for 3 consecutive years, and became the “fastest female artist in history” to perform at two major domes, Tokyo Dome and Kyocera Dome. NiziU made their long-awaited Korean debut on October 30, 2023, and became a national girl group in both name and reality, garnering a lot of attention when they won first place on a local music show.
Taking advantage of that track record, this year’s “Nizi Project Season 2” aims to create a global boy group, and will be held in eight cities in Japan, Los Angeles, New York, and all of South Korea, including Seoul, from mid-March to early May 2022. Regional auditions were held in 11 locations, with over 10,000 applicants participating.
After going through the process of regional auditions ⇒ Japan training camp ⇒ Korean training camp, the global boy group “NEXZ” was born.
