NEXZ is a global boy group born from an audition show by JYP Entertainment and Sony Music.

Using heartbeats and punches as metaphors, it expresses confidence and fighting spirit, with sound effects reminiscent of round calls and a rap-driven structure that leave a strong impression.

TWICE「Hare Hare」Music Video

A brisk, danceable track that marks their 10th Japanese single.

The repeating chorus is striking—you might find yourself humming it before you know it! It’s an uplifting anthem with a bright, forward-looking message that gives you a push.

Since it was made for the 5TH WORLD TOUR ‘READY TO BE’ in JAPAN, the music video’s stadium-like scenes are also a highlight.

Personally, the line Jeongyeon sings near the end never fails to hit me right in the heart… A superb piece where the group’s early-career trademark pep blends seamlessly with the sleek, stylish sound of recent years.

It will clear up the rainy skies in the listener’s heart!
