Season 3 of the audition program Produce 101, titled Produce 48, included participants from Japan’s AKB Group.

IZ*ONE debuted as a time-limited group with members that included three Japanese members.

This song is the first mission track performed by all 101 participants, so its difficulty is relatively low, and the latter half features Japanese lyrics, making it easy for Japanese listeners to sing along.

The title “Nekkoya” means “It’s mine.” It’s a cute love song that says “Your heart is mine,” while also carrying a double meaning of “The national producers’ hearts are mine,” referring to the voters who would help them debut.

A classic, catchy cheer song that shines with TWICE’s signature upbeat energy.

Among their Japanese tracks, this one is especially beloved and a must-pick for karaoke! While the pitch is high, the overall range is relatively narrow, giving it that familiar Japanese-pop feel that makes it easy to jump into.

It should be especially easy to sing for people with higher voices or those confident in their singing.

Above all, the super groovy rhythm makes it perfect for getting the crowd hyped! Splitting the parts like the members’ line distribution would make it even more fun to sing together.

The chorus packs a punch too, highlighting the song’s cute charm.

Singing it is sure to put you in a great mood! It’s also a top recommendation because you can get pumped watching the members’ high-energy performance footage, and it’s easy for everyone to dance along and have fun together.
