Choi Yena, from IZ*ONE, has decided to release her third single "Miramira / STAR! (feat. Hatsune Miku)" in Japan on June 10 (Wednesday). This will be her first single release in Japan in 1 year and 4 months since her second single "DNA" released in February 2024, and the CD release in Japan has been highly anticipated. This long-awaited third single includes the original Japanese new song "Miramira," which will be the new ending theme for the TV animation "DIGIMON BEATBREAK" starting in April, and the hybrid song "STAR! (feat. Hatsune Miku)," which gained attention both domestically and internationally, as a double A-side single. Additionally, it will feature the Japanese version of the hit song "NEMONEMO" from 2024, which remains memorable for K-POP fans. The new song "Miramira" is characterized by a catchy and memorable melody, a rhythmic track, and an uplifting sound that embodies a "sparkly × cute" world view, conveying overall positive and forward-looking energy. The keywords for the song are "positivity," "courage to take a step forward," "being oneself," "positive energy," and "friendship," making it a bright fight song that inspires feelings of friendship, dreams, and hope for miracles at the end. A non-credit ending movie has been released on the official Digimon YouTube channel, allowing fans to enjoy the song alongside the anime visuals. Furthermore, the full version of "Miramira" will start streaming on April 29, ahead of the single's release. Fans are encouraged to check out the new song through streaming. Additionally, Yena will hold her first concert in Japan in about a year and a half in June, taking place over two days on June 13 and 14 at Zepp DiverCity (TOKYO), concluding her Asia tour that began with performances in Seoul, South Korea this month.
