Love Charm SongNEW!ren

Kesouka

A warm yet somehow bittersweet ballad whose earnest, deep feelings for another strike straight to the heart.

Ren, a singer-songwriter who rose to prominence after a stripped-down performance video on social media and now commands tremendous support from Gen Z.

Released for streaming in January 2026, “Kesouka” was written as the opening theme for the MBS drama “With You Running Through the Transparent Night, I Fell in Love with the Invisible.” The concept—conveying feelings through song in place of an unreadable letter to a heroine with a visual impairment—can’t help but loosen your tear ducts.

Closely aligned with the drama’s world, this piece is meant for anyone carrying emotions that words alone can’t express, and for all who wish to protect someone dear.

Many listeners are likely captivated by love songs that sing of straightforward, earnest romance, even if a little clumsy.

This track by BE:FIRST is exactly that kind of song.

It portrays a deep affection that needs no words to be understood, and a tenderness so strong you want to call your partner’s name over and over—feelings many will relate to.

The song is included on the single “GRIT,” released in May 2025.

It’s a love song brimming with happiness that reminds you of how precious your loved one is.

A ballad by Kazuki, released in February 2025, that delicately portrays the pain of heartbreak and lingering attachment.

If they had never met, they might not have felt lonely—but once they learned what tenderness feels like, it never faded and remained in their hearts.

This song will resonate deeply with anyone carrying such bittersweet feelings.

A must-listen for those who struggle to be honest with their emotions or who have lost someone they dearly loved.
