The FM radio program "NOA's ASIAN TREND" (scheduled to network across 10 JFN stations nationwide) will sequentially start airing from October 2 (Wednesday) at each station. The program will convey the momentum and trends of current Asian music, including K-POP, which is sweeping the global music scene, the popular C-POP ballads that gradually seep in from the Chinese-speaking world, and the Thai music scene that has produced global stars like BLACKPINK's Lisa and (G)I-DLE's Minnie. The main DJ is NOA, who has been active since the age of 12 as the first Japanese trainee at South Korea's YG ENTERTAINMENT and is currently active globally in Japan and Asia. As a trilingual artist (Japanese, English, Korean) involved in songwriting, composing, and dance choreography, he will select captivating Asian music that paves the way for the next generation through his musical and entertainment perspectives. On the occasion of the program's start, NOA stated, "It was my first radio experience, and I was nervous, but it was very enjoyable. As it’s about Asian trends, I look forward to delivering the Asia I know and discovering the Asia I don’t know with everyone." Anticipation is rising for "NOA's ASIAN TREND," which will convey the current breath of Asia. The program will be available for listening not only through real-time terrestrial broadcasting but also via radiko's time-free playback and area-free playback with radiko premium. Additionally, a spin-off talk of the program is scheduled to be distributed on the audio platform service AuDee. ■Broadcast Overview "NOA's ASIAN TREND" Broadcast Date: Varies by station. *Starts sequentially from October 2, 2024 (Wednesday).
