A dance number from DA PUMP following “U.S.A.,” which was selected for the 2018 Japan Record Awards Excellent Work Award.

The previous “Ii ne Dance” had an addictive quality that made anyone start moving as soon as they heard the song, but the signature move of this track is, plainly, the “Baiin Dance.” The original inspiration is said to be a dance popular among American youth.
