GReeeeN – Hello Kagerou

A track by GReeeeN that was used as the theme song for the PyeongChang Olympics held in 2018.

For the sake of just one day, there are many days of effort—days of joy and sometimes tears—leading up to it.

This is a song like an anthem for those who keep walking forward through such days.

It will be a song that colors the memories of you who have persevered without giving up.
